Sunset
12.07.21
With the imminent return of some high pressure goodness, it seemed like a good time to return to a classic that’s close to home.

The sunset that almost was, but didn’t quite happen.

Both kids have north facing bedrooms so don’t really get to see many nice sunsets in the spring and winter but in late spring and summer I try to encourage them to just spend ten minutes looking out the window and admiring the sky.

This was not what I had planned, I set out to capture the fog over Herm and Jethou but I could see the sun illuminating the coast from round the corner so ran as fast as I could (and nearly died) to catch the light as it beamed over the hill.

The greatest things in life are often free and I can guarantee that. Spending a few hours a day doing what you love, even through the harshest conditions, will eventually give you the rewards you seek.

Couldn’t find a composition I like around the Vale Church but the sky was amazing tonight. Summer start here I think!

Today was what is commonly referred to a ‘creative block’. Absolute blank mind, and after nearly three weeks of part time decorating, my mind is fried. The sunset was the best it got for me.

If I had to depict Guernsey in one image, this would probably be it. Even on a wet and windy day, there’s always a chance there'll be some light to play with, even when it only last for less than a minute!

When the sun sets through the rain! Fascinating skies, made even better when the colours just exploded.

After weeks of stunning calm days, the gales nearly put me off heading out this evening. But, I always have one eye up in sky just in case there’s some cloud worth freezing my arse off for.

Another beautiful spring day on the rock. Hardly a breath of wind and the sea was almost completely flat. Hopefully this is a sign of a long hot summer to come.

There’s something about Rousse that draws me back throughout the year. I’ve had a vision for an image (other that the same old landscape shots I get sucked into) but never found the right focal length, position or light to get it right. Today, I found my vision.
It needed to be layered. Foreground, middle and background with features of the bays in each. I’m happy with this and I can finally let it go!

I like to imagine this jet was headed for somewhere far far away, somewhere hot and exotic. For now, all we can do is dream and open up Google Earth!

Normally the misty sea spray is my worst enemy when it comes to photography. This was an exception.

The final burst of light before the sun dipped below the clouds behind me. I loved the contrast between the dunes, the grasses and the darkening sky.

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.

Fort Houmet bathed in gorgeous evening light on the west coast this evening. Love a good Guernsey spring vibe.

The west side of what was once the barracks, built in fear of a French invasion in the mid 1800’s.
