The forecast called for rain and it was raining when I arrived. I waited in the car for about 10 minutes and finally decided to shoot from under an umbrella. Right about then a brief clearing occurred and I was able to capture this shot. 205/365

I'd been sitting on the beach at Saadani, north of Dar, Tanzania, as this remarkable weather front approached. Twenty minutes later... the deluge descended!
This image was captured back last October at Godrevy, Cornwall.
Whilst editing, I thought I would see how the image appears in black and white.

Wildflowers were at their peak. Near Lake Lillian, the trail passed through a huge stand of white Jupiter's Beard, also known as Valerian or Centranthus.
Approaching the apex of the curve on the famous High Line Horseshoe Curve in Rockwood, CO (MP 469.5), the former D&RGW K-37 Locomotive #493 slowly brings her train across what is arguably one of the most spectacular sections of track on any railroad in the Lower 48. Just perhaps 100 ft. in front of the train there is a spot from which passengers looking down from their coaches will not see any track at all.....just a very steep drop to the Rio de las Animas Perdidias or "River of Lost Souls." The trains pass through here at perhaps 5 mph, which I suspect is not only comforting for the passengers (slow is good), but also gives them ample opportunity to get out their cameras and create some memories of this very unique stretch of track.

A nighttime view from an airliner while approaching Los Angeles International Airport.
A fishing boat returns to the boat launch in advance of an approaching storm off the coast of Arniston, South Africa. To me, this had the look and feel of a scene one of my favorite painters, JMW Turner would have painted. In fact, he did paint a scene very similar to this, and I was thinking of him as I framed this. Arniston is a small seaside settlement in the Overberg region on the Cape South coast, close to Cape Agulhas, the southernmost tip of Africa. Fishing is still an important means of earning a livelihood. The village has an historic section of old fishermen's cottages. Cape Agulhas is where the Atlantic and Indian Ocean collide. It also is a breeding ground for great white sharks.

BR large logo 50035 'Ark Royal' approaches Exeter Central with the Table 145 09:10 from London Waterloo to Exeter St. David's. The Class 50 was about to pass the fine example of a rail-built gantry that supported a trio of typical Southern Railway lattice pattern signal dolls. The raised centre upper quadrant signal controlled entry to the down platform [2] loop. The tallest doll on the left controlled the down through line that was to be taken out of use during the following month [13th October 1984]. The semaphore signal on the right controlled access to the down bay platform [1].
