Taken at the Sodus Point Lighthouse, Sodus Point, New York. Canon R5/Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM.
A few times a year, strong wind storms come across Lake Ontario. When they do, the crashing waves produced at this lighthouse can be spectacular to see. On a late winter day, one such storm was going to be passing through. So I grabbed my gear and made the hour trek over to Sodus Point.
At first there were moderate winds and people walking out the pier to the lighthouse. An hour later that would have been impossible. The heavy winds came up and made it difficult to stand in place. Also the sand started whipping around. Fortunately I had come prepared and had brought the rain gear for the camera, which covered all but the end of the lens from the elements.
When working on this photo I didn't like the look in color, so I switched it to black and white. I think it looks better that way.
