A great shot from Tony / Big V for this week's PotW.
"Storm at Semaphore Jetty" is a excellent shot, great colour, composition, moment
captured, the whole thing.
And importantly, Tony went out in the crappy weather to get the shot, when I would have stayed
inside with a glass of red and my comfy slippers.
So not only does Tony get PotW, he gets Inspiration of the Week from me.
Fine work Tony.

I missed this one, and it's a beauty. Well deserved Tony, Good pick Greg. This photo of a "big V" could be Tonys trade mark.
