Ryan: Not a rumor! I thought I’d pass on a new 2 minute short I filmed along Ireland’s largest cliff face, populated by a great many sheep. It’s got a mix of ground footage filmed with a Sony A7Rii and Nikon lenses, as well as a DJI Phantom 3 Pro. Did I mention the cute sheep?
Here’s the link and synopsis, cheers!: http://vimeo.com/173424368
County Donegal in Ireland is home to Slieve League, the tallest cliffs in the country – almost three times the size of the Cliffs of Moher, made famous in the Harry Potter films.
Filmed in 4K with a mix of aerial and ground photography, ‘Slieve League, Ireland’ captures the breathtaking sight of the cliffs – just be prepared to share the view with the myriad sheep that call Slieve League their home.
