Description

Seamus Heaney described Carrick-a-rede rope bridge in his poem ‘A Postcard from North Antrim’ as ‘the thin line of a bridge, Of ropes and slates, slung dangerously between the cliff-top and the pillar rock’.  The pillar rock is actually the neck of an extinct volcano.  Originally erected by salmon fishermen in 1775, 30 metres above the Atlantic Sea, the bridge is every bit as spectacular today as it was then.  It is now managed by the National Trust and is one of the most popular tourist attractions that are part of the Causeway Coastal Route.  This is my second attempt in a couple of years to capture this scene from the Portaneevy Discovery Point.
