We're suffering at the hand of continuous wind and rain at the moment. Winds gusted at 58mph (93kph) this morning (before I took this image).And, in nearby North Wales and further north in Cumbria several inches of rain have fallen in the last day or so and there is flooding.

Here's a shot of my favourite lighthouse, Perch Rock, New Brighton.

You can certainly tell it's windy for sure! A lovely lighthouse, looks like it's right in the water. Well done!

I love lighthouse photos. It's amazing how the wind whips the sprays of water such as seen here. Awesome capture!

I really like your lighthouse posts Caruso. The weather might be nasty but it sure makes for a nice scene with the wave action. Excellent post.

It is probably the same Low which brought us stormy winds this afternoon. Get ready Steve for your bad weather shots. This one is a good start!

Wonderful image, Mr. Braces... the light is almost surreal and I like the waves being kicked up by the storm.

Ah yes, to the lighthouse! I think you may have been a famous writer in a past life. You have certainly shown us lots of the punishment it takes - I wouldn't want to be in a boat on that sea!

Fav'd instantly! This is a brilliant capture even though it is a dismal day there. The clarity just makes this and also the composition. Well done and thanks for sharing!
