Stormy by the coast of Dublin
The Storm - Dublin's Coast

The Storm - Dublin's Coast

Sometimes the weather isn't just perfect. 

More than the occasional storm passes over Ireland, here's I went out to photograph the end of a storm on the Irish Sea close to Dublin.

The weather plays a big part in landscape and travel photography, planning is important of course but adaptability is too.

Sea spray covered everything in sight including the camera and lens, constant wiping down of the lens was needed to keep the image sharp.

And an eye on the crashing waves was needed to keep the photographer dry, and on dry land.

This was not a day for mountain photography, the coast was definitely the place to go to photograph the elements.
