Naturally when The Brother was over we had days out. Pretty much every day, actually, which was great. Ballintoy Harbour was a given and on the day we visited, the seas were spectacularly big and the light was good:

| Big seas at Ballintoy Harbour, October 2022. Hasselblad/150mm, FP4+ in HC, on Foma 133 paper. Slight burn in on the sky. Not long after this we could see rain coming in across the sea from the North, so we beat a hasty retreat to the car. We didn't mind as we'd had a great couple of hours walking about and, well, just looking at the sea. |
Very dramatic. When I had a car, one of my favourite things to do was park at the seaside on a rainy day when the waves were high.
ReplyDeleteI find the sea mesmerising when it's big and angry, as it was here. You just have to keep reminding yourself of its dangers and not to get too close.
