I'm from next door in Co. Sligo, but loved this all the same! I have relatives who live in Westport. I've been living in NY since 1986. Great work, and a great song! Great video.

But what's with all these Martina's? I of course am partial to the name. Wow, I knew my relatives were from Mayo. But what’s with all these Martina’s? I of course am partial to the name.

Each time is a new adventure. I go with a chauffeur from Kinvara, IE You have some fantastic pictures. I never thought of doing something like that. I have a ton of pictures, as you can imagine. I will be going back again in October, 2008, with a niece and a nephew. It will be their 1st time. Whenever I now need a refresher on Ireland, I can come view your pictures. I have been to just about all the places. I have yet to see Aran Islands and Achill Island. Saving them for a time when I will be in a position to travel to someplace new. As you can guess, the 1st time the want to see what they've heard about. When you go back, is when you discover everything else. Thanks for a wonderful site. Dear Mike,

I hadn't realized a comment had been added. The tribal sign is my take on an MW turned into celtic knotwork. It is supposed to mean Mike Ward. :) Hope that helped and thanks for stopping by. Tom,

I grew up in Dooniver and worked for your Aunt? Sile for a summer in your grandmothers house. Moved to the Midwest almost 20 years ago and try to travel back as often as possible. Will be setting up a link to your movie from my website as soon as I get home! Thanks, Stephen Mike,

I got the web site from my cousin. I was in Mayo one year ago and took 400 pictures. We wanted to go back this year but until we have the 3 new passports that my wife and daughters need, we may have to settle for the Jersey shore. Good stuff. I got the web site from my cousin.

Have since had to move to the Midlands, but am often up in Mayo. It's amazing how you take the beauty of the county for granted until you look at something like this. My parents live in Lacken, not far from Blacksod. It truly is such a beautiful place, yet so few tourists bother with it and in a way, it's almost nice to keep it like that! ;-) Thanks for sharing!

Really nice flash animation. I've loved the song "Green and Red of Mayo" for a long time (the whole album is excellent) and the pictures to go with it are well taken, well chosen and the timing is perfect. Great job.
