Strangford Résumé

Strangford: Portrait of an Irish Lough Ian Hill

Strangford Lough, with its picturesque villages, rare wildlife, and breathtaking views of the Mourne Mountains, is an area of outstanding natural beauty and a hugely popular attraction for visitors from all over the world. Here, more than 120 full-color photographs capture the beauty of the lough and its surrounding areas as it changes from season to season, from the arrival of the Brent geese in the autumn to the hundreds of sailing boats that take to the water in the warm summer months. With text by former director of the Northern Ireland Tourist Board Ian Hill and photographs by Sunday Times photographer Alain le Garsmeur, capturing scenes featuring Castle Ward House, Quarterland Bay, Dunnyneil Island and more, these stunning photographs tell the fascinating story of Strangford Lough, its history as a natural habitat and its irresistible draw.

Strangford Avis

[a] truly gorgeous book ... And if you've never been to Strangford Lough before, a leaf through this beautifully produced coffee-table book will show you what you've been missing. * Sunday Life * 'As good as Ian's words are, they have to bow to Alain Le Garsmeur's luminous photographs, 160 of them, which capture the glory of summer, the bleak beauty of winter, the hope of spring and the horror of an autumn storm racing across the lough towards you.' * News Letter * A timely reminder of just how important the lough is and of its natural wonder. * Mourne Observer *
