Hook Head Lighthouse, Co. Wexford - Raging Storm From Southwest
Photography by Kevin A. Logan - WindowsToIreland.com
This is a day I will never forget.
I was well aware it was a windy day, too windy in fact to drive by
motorbike. In spite of this I needed to go down to the lighthouse to
deliver some photographs. A friend offered to drive me down in his
car, a much more appropriate vehicle for the weather.
When one arrives to the lighthouse, you really don't appreciate where
you are until you make the final turn around a bend and actually get
on the peninsula. Then there is only open sky, open ocean and of
course the lighthouse. What I saw took my breath away. Waves were
breaking across the road, waves that were easily 40 feet high.
Frankly, I had never seen such dramatic weather.
FORTUNATELY I had my cameras and tripod with me. So I shot this
photograph.
