    I must start carrying my camera, the old phone is ok but I couldn't zoom on this reflection which I thought was beautiful in the morning light , I had to block the road to take this and now im wondering was it worth it.

    am I right, or would you be able to see Mukish on the horizon if you moved over to the left a bit?

    Is it one of the little beaches in Ards Forrest Park?

    so this would mean that you would be somewhere on the Falcaragh side of Horn Head, Horn Head would appear just behind the rocks on the top right of the shot?

    Wrong side of Horn Head

    The problem with a photo like this, is that it could be any beach or cove, I will let it go for a few more gusses before I reveal the location.

    Is it just below the 6th or 7th green at Dunfanaghy golf course?

    I'm thinking its more likely a Mass Rock.

    It's on your left on the way into Falcarragh, comming from Dunfanaghy... right here...

    You can also see it on street view.. here

    I states on the map 'Altar' which to me indicates it was/is a Mass Rock, just as I thought.
