Do Grey Skies Make Better Photographs?

Photography is often associated with golden sunsets, dramatic light, and vibrant colours. But what happens when you get a flat, grey sky? That’s exactly what Steven and I faced on our trip to Blackpool—a seaside town rich in history but struggling with its modern identity. The weather was uninspiring, with overcast skies and no shadows to play with, but it offered us a unique challenge: to focus on composition, textures, and storytelling.
