Storm lighting at Rossbeigh.

Storm lighting at Rossbeigh.
The storms have gone - for the time being, but the moody lighting hangs about for some time yet. A lone walker chances the weather and it is another chance to get a much liked mood shot for me.

Best enlarged.

That's great, Herb. What a fantastic coastview. I think it was very stormy?

Herb Riddle club has replied to LotharW club
The stuff that landscape photography books are full off Lothar. This view, we had practically from our window, and so we could see when the lighting was good -and that was often. Just like you, I enjoyed this one too. The storms came back even worst at the end of this day through the night and next day again. Cheers, for enjoying this with me, Herb

Toz, you honour me with such praise. You know me well now and know that for me capturing 'the light' is everything. I was delighted with this one but similar conditions happened again later in the week. I could have posted hundreds from this spot but.. Cheers for the yellow star.

There is an mood of apprehension about this image...............you said it yourself, "the storm has gone for the time being", and everything in the frame indicates that it's coming back!

Dark foreboding skies, the turbulent seas, and particularly that light............they all add up to more stormy weather!

I could be talking rubbish I suppose............and you may tell me the sun came out shortly afterwards..!!

Oh, and I just love the solo walker on the sands. He or she looks very insignificant in the scene! A terrific image Sir!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
Keith -what can I say! Most of what you say here is absolutely true. It did come back -with a vengeance! You are right about the sun coming out later in the day too, as you will shortly see in more postings of today's tour before an unforgettable evenings photography. You talk rubbish -Never my friend! I am glad you spotted the figure on the beach. I had originally called this 'A morning walk'. Anyway -very happy indeed that I managed to impress you again with my feeble efforts here :)

Who needs blue skies when you can have this! The sunlight on the sea and beach has that typical quality it has after a storm when everything turns very bright suddenly. It makes a striking contrast to the threatening clouds in the background and I just love the lone walker!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Gudrun club
Always good to know that you are still enjoying my photos here Gudrun. As you say, blue skies are not everything. To me the tops of the waves looked appealing as well as this broody sky. The lone walker was a gift!

A lovely setting, dramatic weather and great light. What more could a photographer want? Oh, ok, a tiny figure on the beach to give a sense of scale. You ticked all the boxes here, Herb.

Nice one Herb. Yes, looks great on black, and that touch of humanity on the beach completes this moment in time, I think.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Frank J Casella
Great that you have enjoyed this Frank. The sort of picture here that when I see similar from other people, wish that I had done that! The strolling person completes the picture as you say. Glad you went the full hog -big on black!

... ominous background, yes ... but I like the juxtaposition of the sidelit headline and the ocean with repeating white breakers ...
