‘Should I Bring an Umbrella?’
Celebrating weather in photographs


By Alan Johnston
Review by Tim Corke

Alan Johnston’s personal portfolio of photographs captures the delights of weather, and people, from all angles: from glorious sunny Summer days to downright gloomy Winter.

His final couple of pages surprise with a portrait in words and pictures of Portaferry's new lifeboat station, which opened in June. This completes an album of beauty, and 80 years of experiences in different weather in different landscapes, from his home in Northern Ireland, across Europe to Africa and the Middle and Far East.

Johnston’s imagery is so inspiring and his commentary so delightful that you just want to drop everything and join him.
