Night time storm chasing on the Co. Antrim coast near Ballintoy Harbour on the hunt for ocean lightning and moonbows on December 31st 2012. We saw this coming in from the W, this was a line of convection producing sleet and hail stones off the W coast of Ireland, it came inland over Donegal and was approaching us. At last, after a long period of clear sky we now had some sky action and the moon was up too which made photography even better. We made our way on foot to the E along the shore stopping periodically to take exposures then moved on and repeated as the cells got closer. Here's a line of cells lit by the moon with two towers/anvils visible on top taken just before the stars got swallowed up, read the full image report from this night here. * All images are available for sale in the form of photo prints, canvas or digital files for licensing, if you are interested in a purchase simply drop me an email.
