Stormy Evening

I've been very lazy in regard to getting out and about for taking photos of late, so I decided that this evening, after I'd walked Fudge and before I'd washed the dishes, I'd go to the beach in the hope of there been an impressive sunset. It was particularly wild and windy, I'd forgotten to take my tripod (which probably didn't matter as it was so windy) or ND filters. The sunset was disappointing as were most of my shots but I think this one sort of captures the mood of the weather, if nothing else.

Nikon D7000
1/30s f/5.6 at 20.0mm iso500 full exif

Stormy all right, at least the seaweed is able to cling to the beach.

That little bit of red really livens up the foreground

How decadent is that....going to the beach BEFORE washing the dishes, decisions don't get any more satisfying than that!! Hope the little fairies did them before you got back!! Oh..and cool image too ;)

depth and dimension, scale and atmosphere reign in this fabulous image...rich layers, and subtleties within them, all at such a vibrant moment...V

A nice alternative to the "sunny day" scene. V

The "cool" colors create a wonderful sense of the "wild and windy" evening and are beautiful V

I love that moody sky, I can almost feel the chill from here.V.
A sign of things to come. Colder and even more miserable.LOL.

It's a bit of purple rain - and those seagulls make the piccy!

I like it much more than those overphotographed golden sunsets. Fantastic work! BV

This is quite beautiful. I like the touch of color the red foliage brings to the grey rocks and ocean with the dark skies and a touch of pink. Vote
