Storm
23.11.22
Another day of non stop wind and rain. I don’t mind it as I love watching the clouds move in and change the mood.

Massive rain storm heading in quicker than I expected it. Starting to feel proper wintry in the wind.

The power of the sea is something that has always fascinated me. So powerful and deadly but majestic and mesmerising at the same time.

It’s been a pretty epic day of rain. I left the house at 05:00 but failed to capture a lightning bolt so ventured out again mid afternoon to capture another huge downpour. Love this weather.

Summer just pushed even further away and the reality of living on a rock in the middle ion the English Channel kicked in again. The storms are coming…

Early morning on the North of Herm, just before the heavens opened! Such an extreme change from the 30 degree heatwave a few days ago!

From glorious sunshine for a whole week to a complete u-turn of icy cold arctic winds and wintry showers. This was a few minutes before the hail hit and it was painful. I’d forgotten how much it hurts being shot in the face with thousands of hail stones!
I also found loads of newborn lambs today so I’ll head back and grab some shots tomorrow.

Braving the icy blast in the hope that there would be a little more drama in the sky. Minutes after this the hail and sleet started hammering down and that was me done.

Sheltered from the wind with my car boot open, the 50mph winds swiftly carried the rain over the bay and out towards the channel. Unfortunately I was a few minutes too late to get some decent light.

A far cry form those scorching hot summer days, paddle board in hand and the waft of fresh bbq coals burning in the air.

A very wet weather front creeping in this morning. From my experience, sunrise rainclouds are stunning to look at. Varying heights picking up a mix of colours to feast your eyes on!

Believe it or not, there is some scientific understanding to the rhyme, “Red sky in the morning, shepherds warning”!
A quote from he Met Office - "Red sky in the morning, shepherds warning" means a red sky appears due to the high-pressure weather system having already moved east meaning the good weather has passed, most likely making way for a wet and windy low-pressure system.”

The penultimate month and it kicked off pretty wet! I was too tired to battle the wether so held off and got the aftermath of the downpour.

Pushing my luck with he waves crashing against the wall but I think this sums up the weather today. A little taster of what winter has install for us!

Pre season stormy weather training this morning. Got an absolute pasting from the sand bowing across the beach. I tried catching some of the sand blowing down towards the sea but most of it was blowing horizontally.

After the excitement of this mornings unseasonal gale force winds it was nice to feel a little bit of warmth and ditch the winter gear. I did notice there were three conger eels drying out in the back of the boat. Is this a Guernsey thing i’ve missed?

My plan was to chase the thunder and lightning in the early hours but that was short lived. Instead, once the gorgeous orange glow burst over the horizon, I focused my efforts on the rain clouds heading in from behind. As an added bonus, a rainbow appeared in the mix.

Rocquaine under a heavy and angry sky. Pretty much non stop like this for the last few day but this just adds to the excitement of being out hunting down an image.

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.

I take my hat off to all the fishermen out there who brave the treacherous seas in the winter. We take for granted how easy we’ve got it sometimes. The rain behind the boat was really churning up the sea, luckily it was drifting away from them.
