It is 3:00pm 23rd October 2008. The wind has just topped 52mph (83kph). It is raining and it's chilly, so here's another storm photograph! This is , of course, The Perch Rock Lighthouse, New Brighton, at the mouth of The River Mersey.

I really love color photos that look like b/w. This is one of those. Such a powerful scene. The lighthouse must be a Timex.

That is already wind force 9 Steve! You have managed to catch the storm effect very well. The photo looks like a Black and White shot.

Looks b&w in small scale Steve! ....but I can see it isn't when I look at it in full screen! However, I love the tones and the composition of this shot - wild and moody!

WOW Steve, this is amazing action capture, hope you didn't get too wet. Does anyone live in that lighthouse? Those are really some big waves smashing up against it. Love this my friend, fabulous shot.

Love the light and color... I can see the ferocity of the water by the height of the waves and the size of the lighthouse entrance.

This is so awesome!! The amount of life and drama that this photo shows is just amazing. I can feel the wind, the cold, the spray of the water, the skies. It's one of the finest photos I've seen of a lighthouse and the sea!!! Also the top of the lighthouse is amazing. Not only the weather vane up there, but the railing, if one thinx about it, then we would realize if a person were there walking, we could for sure see just how large this whole thing is. I live near the ORegon Coast and have seen many lighthouse photos, but yours is the
best I think.I love it when the waves get blown by the wind like this show. You did an exceptional job on this. Verena
