Really spoilt for choice with shots today. Port Soif had some amazing swell this morning, rainbows at lunch and this stunning golden light after work. The wind was blowing at least 45-50mph, sand blowing in my face (a tripod was out of the question) and even had sand between my teeth. I like to make things hard for myself but the rewards are so worth the battles.

Didn’t hold out much hope for a keeper today but the rays started bursting through the clouds on the horizon crying out for a photo.

That Friday feeling, not giving a shit what’s going on, just enjoying the sunshine and looking forward to some snow (hopefully).

I’m genuinely gutted we couldn’t celebrate properly today, not only for Liberation Day but just being with all our mates and letting the kids mingle and have fun. On the plus side, I wasn’t drunk so I could shoot out and grab some photographs to make up for it.

One step closer to the weekend, not that it makes much difference anyway but on the plus side, it’s safe to say the summer is around the corner!

Makes you wander how many German soldiers stood in this same spot and just stepped off guard for a moment to admire the views. I’m already visualizing a hot summer evening with some proper fat sausages on the bbq! Summer…coming soon.

They promised a few rainbows, all that was left to do was align myself and wait for the right moment. These photos don’t just happen, they are mentally planned through the year. This one with a bow I recon I’ve been trying to get for at least 3 years!

Felt the warmth of the sun on my face today for the first time in what seems like forever! As a Guern, these days are best ended where our memories belong…on the beach.

The weather has been stunning this week but I wasn’t expecting anything special tonight. That said, chuck on a 10 stop filter and sometimes it just makes an image.

As the days draw out there’s a little bit more time to get the light just how you want it. Still requires a little patience but in the end it will come.

Stunning spring evening on the west coast and not a cloud in sight. Experimental x processing with the edits.

Bracing the full force of storm Freya approaching from the Atlantic. This was was a case of sheltering from the wind and waiting for the sun to burst through the clouds. The sand blowing up the dunes was getting everywhere, but I have faith in the Canon weatherproofing!
