Winter Storm

[JohnStewart]

I mostly do motorsport photography, but do take the occasional landscape shot when I'm out and about.

This image scored well in my local photography club projected images competition a few weeks ago. It is of the Lighthouse at the entrance to Aberdeen harbour when the UK was being battered by Storm Frank back in January.

Unknown to me, the club selected it as one of their pool photos in the recent SPF digital competition, where it also scored well

That is really great. If you gaze into that wave it looks like a cloud! That's a funny looking lighthouse too.

That's cracking shot John. Well worthy of its praise I would say

 

[Nick Owen]

Terrific shot!

Wow, very dynamic and full of action.
Lovely timing.
A justified and worthy high scorer.

 

[Neil Burnell]

Superbly taken John

Of its type its as good as it will be

I agree with Steve that it would be hard to improve on this, especially as I think the relatively pale sky works better than a more stormy one would have.

"Excellent" shot John, nuff said.

Frightnenly captures the power of the sea.

It's a belter and it reminds me of a very similar location in South Wales.

Love it!!


I see a few familiar faces on the SPF awards page.
