There is something about arriving at an old Irish estate like Ardtully that immediately makes you stop and look.
This was a location I photographed around eight years ago, and returning brought back a lot of memories from when I was photographing abandoned buildings around Ireland.
But as I discovered on this visit, returning to an old location does not always mean things are the same.
