A constant stream of people braved the howling gales yesterday to have a look
at the dead whale which had washed into the harbour in the storms.

A shame about the poor whale. Lovely image of the lighthouse, wonderful contrast against the stormy sky!

Very nice lighting and lighthouse. I can understand the morbid fascination as it's so unusual to see a whale in the wild.
