Storm On Monday




Huge great storms around the coast on Monday so lots of really big wave action and cameras out in force. It was nice for a change to see one of these big storms in the daylight as I tend to see them in the evening usually. The local earth around here turns the water a delightful blood red colour and lots of very interesting shapes were emerging from the waves. The cliffs above were taking a real battering and the picture with the boats and cliffs in wasn't as empty of people as it appears as I was taking these between the never ending stream of cars that were driving up to the end here and having to reverse and turn round again, there was also a large crowd of people at this end running backwards and forwards, mind you it was quite a sight for a Monday morning.

Lunar Eclipse




Good conditions for viewing the total lunar eclipse here last night which unfortunatly I had to miss because of a job interview this morning, though on the plus side I have been offered the job so it was well worth missing this one for. I took these photo's just as the moon was rising at about six in the evening and the moon is already strikingly prominent and for me the coast doesn't get any prettier than this.
