The Raw Power of Nature

Well, frustrated by the weather in my bids to get any wildlife shots, I decided if I couldn't beat it photograph it. I went down Porthleven to watch the first winter storm swell come in, and found about half of Cornwall had decided to do the same! I got lucky and found a parking space still vacant. So I was out on top of the hill over looking Porthleven Harbour watching this beautiful spectacle of natures power. Managed a few pictures and hopefully some excellent video.  Only got soaked once so not to bad. Here are the pictures below and hopefully some video later. Please double click to enlarge the images:
