Keem Beach, Achill Island by Brandon Turley

Keem Beach is gorgeous - but they say it's the journey, not the destination, right? After hours of walking, I came upon the bay and was greeted by the loveliest sights. Sights you miss by car. Don't be afraid to walk. Society today is so lazy we drive down the street to get fast food... Get outside and put your feet to the ground. Take your shoes off and feel the grass between your toes!! Just mind the nettles ??? ??#ig_today#main_vision#insta_worldz#fantastic_captures#excellentshots#ig_great_shots#worldbestshot#igpowerclub#travelphotography#thevisualscollective#worldbestshot#roamtheplanet#ahd_shotz#igpowerclub#ig_exquisite#photowall#magicpict#ig_serenity#ig_bliss#photowall_nature #allnatureshots#nature_specialist #world_specialist#master_shots#ig_naturesbest#instanaturefriends_#nature_uc#thebestdestinations#loves_ireland#europe_vacations A photo posted by Brandon Turley (@photography_here_now) on May 15, 2016 at 9:58am PDT
