Bád Eddie Shipwreck, Ireland

[Graeme F]

This is a beached shipwreck in Ireland called Bád Eddie in County Donegal. At nightime it is lit by Christmas decorations (don't ask!). Anyway 1 more seasonal of storms will likely destroy it sadly as last year half the wreck was lost...

Neat photo subject to play with while it lasts. Any info on its origins and when it met its demise?

Well knock me down with a feather. I was there about a month ago. My first trip to Ireland and I end up at the same beach. I'm afraid I know nothing of its history, I just found it appealing.

Hey Graeme!

I am glad you got it before it's all gone. I like your capture.

Hadn't you posted an image of this before when it was still whole?

That's so cool Ian! How funny that you were just there.

I like your take of it. It's nice to see different compositions of the same object.

 

[John Holbrook]

Love the mood and composition.

This report was written a couple of years ago and can see how much the wreck has fallen away: Story

I took this shot as well from a different angle thinking it might make a good B&W composition?
@ Jim ; no first time I visited this location
