    Depending where you are staying.
    Sunrise best on the East Coast and Sunset on the West Coast.
    Use the photographers ephermis to see direction and location of the sun rise/set. Cloud permitting of course.

    Check www.flickr.com/map as a guide to possible locations

    coincidentally, i think today is the date of the earliest sunset - either today or tomorrow.

    21st is the shortest day.

    As an aside, the further east you go for sunrise and furthest west you can go for sunset is best:D

    though the sky over Guinesses was fantastic this evening. Must start bringing my camera into work to take advantage of the roof!

    I would recommend any of the following spots.
    South - Either Baltimore Area or Kerry way Kenmare harbour.
    West - Head towards Aas

    I would recommend any of the following spots. (Outside of the obvious "giants causeway" "cliffs of mohar")
    South - Either Baltimore Area or Kerry way Kenmare bay/harbour. There is also hundreds of spots along the ring of Kerry.
    West - Head towards Aasleagh (half way between Westport and Galway.
    North ish - head towards Portarlington and then towards the Moarns mountains.

    Hope that helps a little.
