  • Sa samhradh, bhí an ghrian te agus bhí Killarney National Park níos áille ná mar a bhí riamh.

    In the summer, the sun was warm and Killarney National Park was more beautiful than ever.

  • Bhí crainn arda ag coimeád scáth ar na conairí casta.

    Tall trees cast shadows over the winding paths.

  • Bhí an loch socair ag léiriú spéir gorm an tsamhraidh.

    The calm lake reflected the blue summer sky.

  • I lár an áilleachta seo, bhí Aoife ag siúl leo féin.

    In the midst of this beauty, Aoife was walking alone.

  • Ealaíontóir saor-intinneach ab ea í.

    She was a free-spirited artist.

  • Bhí sí ag lorg inspioráide.

    She was searching for inspiration.

  • Ach, bhí a intinn folamh.

    However, her mind was blank.

  • Ní raibh sí in ann an rud speisialta sin a fheiceáil.

    She couldn't see that special something.

  • Ní raibh sí in ann a phictiúr foirfe a phéinteáil.

    She couldn't paint her perfect picture.

  • Gan a fhios a bheith aici, bhí Liam, leannán nádúir agus fear ceamara, ag céimniú go mall ar an gcosán céanna.

    Unbeknownst to her, Liam, a nature lover and a photographer, was slowly stepping on the same path.

  • Bhí sé díograiseach faoin bhfotagrafaíocht.

    He was passionate about photography.

  • Bhí sé ag iarraidh an íomhá foirfe a fháil den loch agus an ghrian ag dul faoi.

    He was trying to capture the perfect image of the lake as the sun went down.

  • Bhí Aoife ag iarraidh dul i bhfolach ó na sluaite.

    Aoife wanted to hide from the crowds.

  • Chuaigh sí ar chosán níos lú-thaistealaithe.

    She took a less-traveled path.

  • Bhí súil aici rud éigin i bhfolach, rud éigin nach bhfaca sí go fóill, a aimsiú.

    She hoped to find something hidden, something she hadn't seen yet.

  • Bhí Liam ag fanacht.

    Liam was waiting.

  • Bhí foighne aige.

    He was patient.

  • Bhí na néalta ag scaipeadh go mall.

    The clouds were slowly spreading.

  • Bhí sé ag iarraidh go mbeadh an solas oiriúnach chun a ghrianghraf foirfe a thógáil.

    He wanted the light to be just right to take his perfect photograph.

  • Go tobann, chonaic Aoife Liam ag socrú a cheamara.

    Suddenly, Aoife saw Liam setting up his camera.

  • D'fhan sí ag breathnú air.

    She stood watching him.

  • Shíl sí go raibh sé dírithe agus síochánta.

    She thought he looked focused and peaceful.

  • Rinne sí súil a chaitheamh ar a chuid oibre.

    She glanced at his work.

  • Chuaigh Aoife chuige.

    Aoife approached him.

  • Chuir siad aithne ar a chéile.

    They got to know each other.

  • Labhair siad faoina gcuid paisean.

    They talked about their passions.

  • Roinn Liam a chuid ama le ceamara, agus d'inis Aoife faoin inspioráid a bhí sí ag lorg.

    Liam shared his experiences with the camera, and Aoife spoke about the inspiration she was seeking.

  • Chabhraigh an comhrá leo beirt.

    The conversation helped them both.

  • Ghlaoigh Aoife ar a creat láimhe agus thosaigh sí ag líníocht.

    Aoife called upon her sketchpad and started drawing.

  • Bhí fuinneamh agus fonn nua aici.

    She had a new energy and enthusiasm.

  • Bhí sí sásta.

    She was happy.

  • Bhí Liam ag féachaint ar an spéir.

    Liam was watching the sky.

  • Agus anois, leis an solas foirfe, bhí sé in ann an grianghraf a ghlacadh a raibh sé ag fanacht air.

    And now, with the perfect light, he was able to take the photograph he had been waiting for.

  • Bhí an t-am ag teacht chun na laceanna a ghabháil sa solas órga.

    The time had come to capture the lacework in the golden light.

  • Agus iad beirt ag dul, bhí aoibh orthu.

    As they both left, they were smiling.

  • D'éirigh Aoife níos oscailte, bhí sí sásta a cuid oibre a roinnt.

    Aoife became more open, excited to share her work.

  • Tháinig níos mó spraoi agus spontáineacht i mbealach Liam chun grianghraif a ghlacadh.

    More fun and spontaneity came into Liam's approach to photography.

  • D'fhág siad an pháirc, rud beag difriúil ná mar a tháinig siad.

    They left the park a little different from when they came.

  • Go raibh maith agat don pháirc, don nádúr agus do na daoine nua a phlé.

    Thanks to the park, nature, and the new people they met.

  • Bhí an t-áthas ar an mbeirt acu.

    They were both joyful.

  • Bhí siad ag tnúth leis an chéad lá eile.

    They looked forward to the next day.
