I’ve been wanting to try and create something like this at Talacre for a long time. I often see this gap in the sand dunes as curtains. It could be to a stage, though the lighthouse doesn’t move enough to be a decent performer. Maybe the clouds are dancers and the lighthouse is the judge. I don’t know. All I know is that it’s great when a plan comes together and you get the shot that you want. Even to the point where the lighthouse caught some morning sunlight and grabbed the attention. That was luck though of course. There’s no amount of planning that can prepare you for the Welsh weather. The weather was predicting rain. Kind of typical of North Wales I guess. There’s a lesson there about getting out there with the camera regardless of what the weather predicts, you just never know what may happen in life.
