Tee-time: Ireland's links a fine destination
'THERE'S A LOT of fellas in graveyards who'd like to be where we are now." That's Joe Murphy talking as we're walking down the sixth fairway toward the Atlantic Ocean at Ballybunion, one of Ireland's most revered golf courses. It was a gloriously sunny afternoon in September, with only a slight breeze coming in off the sea, and Murphy and I were enjoying a four-ball match against Tom O'Toole and Kevin Roche.

You've got a camera, a forest full of bare branches and a whole lot of snow and sun. What do you do? As anyone who's tried winter photography knows, it's no snap. The eye sees white snow sparkling on an undulating landscape. But in the photograph, the hills are flat, shadows have appeared out of nowhere and the snow is as gray as old underwear.
