Woke up to the presently strongest storm on the planet here in Newfoundland. Couldn't find my 16-85 WR so stuck my 17-50 Sigma on. It doesn't do well at cold temps and today was no exception. Lens had a lot of trouble with focus and handling manual focus in 122kph/76mph winds at Cape Spear where these were taken wasn't working well either. Temps were 0C/32F. Setting up any settings was hard and it shows. Hell, even walking was extremely difficult and had to essentially duck walk to keep from being bowled over.
But the gale was blowing swatches of spray right off the surface and these were catching the sunlight and making blowing rainbows skitter and swirl across the surface. Can't bring them out as well as I'd like, but here are the best of a lot of not so great pics. Will be better prepared next time.
This 1st one is from a protected area with the gale out at the point and so was able to set the pic up a bit better.
Rest are out in the full gale...
