The natural beauty of MB’s homeland is always an inspiration every time he’s home to get out the camera and start clicking.
This shot is one of MBs from the New Year’s early morning mass by the frozen Lough Gur lake on 01.01.2010, which was a 10th anniversary celebration of a similar mass held to welcome the new millennium on 01.01.2000. MB attended that one also but alas did not have a camera. The priest inspires the flock on this particular morning with his sermon and all are inspired by the beauty of the surrounding nature.

I’d rather be a Muslim than a goat
Yes I would
If I only could
I surely would
