The Long Room in the Old Library at Temple College, Dublin Ireland

Walking through the the Long Room in the Old Library at Temple College has to rank in my top 10 experiences. The library is known for housing ‘The Book of Kells’ that dates back to around the 8th Century, but is also contains about 200,000 other ancient books. I am so very thankful to have been given the privilege to be able to actually photograph this magical place. Typically no photographs are allowed. I did have to sign a release that states that I may not sell any of the images. So this is the only one of my thousands of photographs that I can show you, but you cannot purchase. I am just glad that I have this photograph to transport me back to this wonderful place. For those that are interested, this is actually a 5 exposure HDR.
