Unforeseen surprises..



Wednesday, late afternoon.. what was that I heard, thunder! No way! Followed by a spattering of rain. Thinking the clouds might make for a good sunset shot we dashed down to the lighthouse at Hillarys Boat Harbour just in time to see the sun disappear under the horizon! Still that colourful after-glow behind the clouds though. I broke the 'not having main feature centre of picture' rule, but am declaring the photographer to the left as the main subject so that sorts that out  😉
 

Looking back before getting into the car I took my last shot.. oh la that thunderous sky! Unfortunately more rain fell out to sea than it did on land, you can see the rain to the right below falling almost horizontally. Got to love these unexpected surprises 💛 Happy weekend, take care and stay safe..

    The so-called rules of photography are there to be broken! These are fantastic and I love those stormy clouds in the last shot.

    The top shot is stunning. And yes the photographer makes the shot very interesting and balanced.
