Donald has outstanding calendars featuring lighthouses and storms. An intrepid storm watcher, he managed to capture a storm front approaching Nubble Lighthouse on Cape Neddick in Maine. That’s a two in in!
At a distance the storm clouds form an ominous backdrop to an otherwise sunny picture of the historic lighthouse. The threatening weather is best seen in the closeup of the storm front.
As it gets nearer the storm clouds look like they are about to engulf the lighthouse and its surrounding buildings.
Nubble Lighthouse became operational in 1879. It is located in a very windy spot, so bad and so cold that in the winter in the days before electricity, the oil stopped flowing to the incandescent oil vapor lamp. It must have been dramatic and desolate for the lighthouse keepers during winter storms.

Absolutely stunning photography! As always Donald has managed to capture nature at it most powerful and most beautiful.
