In July 2017 this picture was taken using a drone and a smart phone operated by Matt Radecki from California. The picture shows the original Ireland water tank. You are looking west from the tank and up State Highway 56 at 8:30 pm EDT. The Ireland Fire Department building is in the center of the picture.
