Arriving before dawn, only the faintest glow illuminated the horizon. I carefully made my way down to the sandy beach below. It was september 2006, and i was standing on coumeenoole strand, at the wild western edge of the dingle peninsula in ireland.
my camera of choice at the time was a beautiful japanese-made 4"×5" wooden masterpiece — an ebony. I spent some time watching the gentle waves roll in, waiting for the first light to emerge. With the camera set up and ready, i continued to wait.
the scene began to grow darker. Clouds drifted south-west overhead and rain started to fall. Taking a chance, i began a long exposure image, for a brief moment, the clouds cleared in the distance, revealing an extraordinary and unexpected scene. The resulting image holds a rare contradiction: warm yet dark, tranquil yet mysterious. A fleeting convergence of weather, light and timing — and a reminder of why landscape photography so often rewards patience.
