Description Taken in Bushmills, Northern Ireland (right below the distillery). I never noticed the graffiti until afterwards (UDA = Ulster Defense Association, a terrorist organisation, the loyalist equivalent of the IRA).

Be sure to check out the catholics:

IRA are not Terrorist they are Freedom Fighters, these Protestants are decendents of English. My Irish friend told me. He knows a lot about the War. UP THE RA as they say

They're Scots, not English. Never call a Scott an Englishman.

You and your friend unfortunately don't know much as it seems.

They would have wanted to - seeing as I was right infront of them and spoke to them before I took the photo!

Ha! I love this even more because I know the spot. There's also the tricolour foot path just across the way.

I think this one is more effective than the Catholics, it has a bit more information about the men and less about the background. There's plenty in the background in both, it's just less distracting in this manner.

Excellent capture.
The graffitti is an excelllent touch, you couldnt have planned it!
Did you do this from a distance or were you just stnding in front of the subjects?

About 8 feet away... That's probably why two of them looked away.
