OUR stomachs were churning when we saw this video of photographer Anthony Kearney’s crossing on the Tarbert to Killimer car ferry during Storm Eleanor this morning.

Anthony played down the terrifying sea conditions, but if we were in his boots, we would have been clinging on for a dear life.

“The Shannon is a little rough this morning thanks to #StormEleanor as I travel with @ShannonFerries from #Kerry to #Clare. The #wildatlanticway is living up to its name #wildatlanticwaykerry #Ireland,” Anthony said.

Fair play to those brave commuters, we reckon we would high tailed it back home to bed.
