Bring it On 2

Saturday 14/11/09 Gale force winds Battering the South of England with gusts of 60 mph

Newhaven Harbour Lighthouse
Sussex

The grainy effect is NOT post proccessing but salt spray. Yours truly and his camera (my faithful panasonic fz50) took a bit of a battering this morning.

    Wow! This version has far more impact than v1: better composition, the wave on the lighthouse, the light… and the three birds just at the right place…

    (I nearly drowned 2 of my cameras in such weather ;-) )
