EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking beauty of The North Star Dyke in Ballycastle, County Antrim, Northern Ireland, as it appeared in August 1907. The North Star Dyke, also known as Fairhead, is a distinctive rocky outcrop that juts out into the Irish Sea, providing a natural harbor for the picturesque town of Ballycastle. In this image, the North Star Dyke stands proud against the backdrop of a clear, blue sky, with the rolling green hills of County Antrim stretching out beyond. A lady, dressed in turn-of-the-century attire, is included in the photograph to provide a sense of scale, adding a human element to the scene and emphasizing the grandeur of the natural wonder before her. The intricate details of her outfit, from the high collar and long skirt to the lace-up boots and parasol, offer a glimpse into the fashion of the early 1900s. The North Star Dyke has long been a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from near and far to marvel at its rugged charm and stunning views. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a unique window into the past, transporting us back in time to a simpler era and inviting us to appreciate the timeless beauty of the natural world.
