Thunder Light

Cove Bay, Hopeman, Moray.

Boy did I receive a thrashing for being out when this light broke. Undeterred I continued to take pictures in some of the most extraordinary light I have ever witnessed while hail beat me half senseless and the perpetual rumble of thunder broke overhead. I won't deny I glowed with pride and practically with the same intensity as the light falling on these rocks when I viewed them on the light box for the first time. Everyone should witness light of this quality once in their life then no-one could ever fail to wonder at the majesty of planet earth.

Pentax 67 II ,45mm lens,Fujichrome Velvia

I think I know of these moments; when everything seems too perfect to be an accident. Fortunately your camera was there to witness it too!

Stunning lighting and wonderful comp. Like the contrast between the rough texture of the cliff and the smooth foreground rocks. Hope the bruises have healed!
