Located in North West Ireland, on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean in Sligo’s famous Yeats Country, photographer Ulrike Schwier is a well known landscape and seascape photographer in County Sligo.
Ulrike is ideally placed to capture the breathtaking moods of these dramatic landscapes with Sligo offering a wide range of scenery - from the mountains of Ben Bulben, Knocknarea in Strandhill, Benwiskin and the Ox Mountains, to lakes like Lough Gill and Glencar Lake and the seaside landscapes like the Raghly Peninsula, Yellow Strand, Lissadell, Streedagh Beach, Mullaghmore, Rosses Point and Strandhill to name a few.
The site includes a secure on-line shopping facility where you can buy high quality photographic prints in A4 sizes from The Yeats Country Collection which features landscapes of Counties Sligo, Leitrim and Donegal.
Every year Ulrike uses twelve of her Sligo Landscape photographs for a Sligo Calendar which has, as a title, WB Yeats description of the area as the "Land of Heart’s Desire". This has become somewhat of a “must have” for many households at Christmas time either thinking of presents to send to family and friends abroad or simply to keep for themselves to admire the beauty of land- and seascapes around them throughout the year.
