Storm Franklin swept across the south coast of the UK

Halsewell was wrecked against these cliffs, in January 1786 during a southwesterly storm. Storm Franklin provided the same conditions with the wind blowing a force 8-9 with the sea state having 4-5m waves. The wave crashed into the cliffs, some reaching 30m or more.

These conditions do not always give the best conditions for photography and although taking them was fun and presented problems I am not sure they are technically good enough.
