From the froth on the sand to the clouds in the sky, this is beautifully caught....

Very nice Andy. DMR I assume.

The weather was poor today wasn't it.

Thanks folks.

Yes, R8/DMR/19

We went for a walk to Formby this morning. Or rather, we went to get sand blasted at Formby - people pay a fortune to get exfoliated like that down South .

I kept the DMR in the bag, but did shoot a roll of TriX (my first ever TriX) with the M2, which I shall process later.

After Formby, we called in to see Mr Gormley, at Crosby, again, but the waves were breaking over the promenade and he was nowhere to be seen. So, called in to Perch Rock on the way home.

The Tax Man Cometh and his form must be completed...

Madder than a mad dog, eh? That damn light again. Good use of your new toy. Like the framing, cloud and foam. Just enough foreground interest.

"Toy"?

Not quite mid-day, but nearly

Thanks for your comment, William. It really is much appreciated.

I have one in my pocket. It's the waves that were the problem

The sky and the light are marvellous. The dog wasn't trying hard enough. Tsk. Tsk.

Interesting to compare these two shots, roughly six months apart...

Photographer standing within 50' of himself each time.

That is really a beautiful shot. What kind of dog? Most of ours loved this sort of weather - the fouler it was, the happier they were. Our recent four year old was known for napping outside in the rain. She was the original outdoors kid.

Andy,

Very nice indeed. The light, sharpness and depth of field are just right and combine to make this a classy shot.

Worth braving the elements for!

A great image Andy.

However just one correction, we southerners have had our own bit of "sandblasting" this week. No damage at home but plenty around and about. The electricity was off for about 8 hours. You can keep that sort of weather up north if you please!
