With a forecast for clear skies this weekend I couldn't resist a visit down to Dorset to try and capture the Milky Way.
I ended up at Portland Bill next to the lighthouse capturing this shot of the Pulpit Rock.
Pulpit Rock was intentionally left as a quarrying relic and was formed with religious associations; the large slab of rock leaning against the main stack depicted an open bible leaning on a pulpit. At the time of its creation, Portland had gained an influx of a variety of religious groups and active places of worship following the transformation of Portland Roads into a harbour of refuge. The related government works, such as the fortifications built to defend the harbour, along with the Royal Navy's increasing presence at Portland, resulted in large increases to the island's population.

Thank you so much for your visit!
Back to Trout Lake and an early morning frost on the Sunshine Coast. The weather called for a touch of snow on this day, which led to plenty of interesting candy coated trees. My thought on this shot was to use the red frost covered trees, to imitate a shadow, to the white frost covered trees. In turn, that would help give the illusion of dimension.
When I saw the ducks land and begin to swim, they turned and angled straight for my shot, as if it were planned. Perhaps it is true when they say, "luck favours the prepared".
The Early Bird...
The forecast called for early morning thunder showers and inclement weather; Knowing they are the best days for sunrises... I made my way to Burton park and started taking shots of the sunrise.
the yellow and crimson blue hues of the sky only lasted a few minutes then were lost in the thicker cloud cover that suddenly enveloped the rising sun.
The early bird gets the sky to itself....

Forecast looked good so we decided to try Steetley. On the way the weather app changed and the forecast didn't look so great.
After a fair amount of deliberating if we should try Flamborough or Scarborough we finally decided to stick with the original plan.
What a fantastic place. It will be a sad loss to this coastline once it's gone. The cemetery above the beach has to be the creepiest graveyard I've ever seen!
Looks like the next weekend will present us some frosty days, some sunshine would be welcome. Obernbeck,Ostwestfalen, Germany

My attempt at the "Crazy Tuesday" theme "Glow".
Shot with a Carl Zeiss "Luminar 25 mm F 3.5" lens on a Canon EOS R5.
The weather forecast was for showers and sunshine all day which for me makes great conditions to be in the Lakes .
If you look to the top of the pikes you can see the hikers doing what they love and the autumnal colours are starting to show now.
You just gotta love The Lake District.
Dawn, and I huddled in the shelter of the porch as Storm Malik departed to shoot the rising sun.
The weather forecasters gave us to understand that Storm Corrie would be a much smaller event ... and the worst was over. How wrong they were! Corrie did almost as much damage ... and hit areas that had escaped the fury of Malik.
Now, on Wednesday, we are just emerging .. and beginning to assess the damage here.
I'll be away from Flickr, and very much on and off for a while .... as we begin the repair work on the garden and sheds!

The weather forecast over the past week was good so we decided to head back to the New Forest for a few days.
Don't be alarmed by the fire, it's actually a practice of controlled burning which takes place in the New Forest between November and March. The burning encourages new growth which is beneficial to a variety of flora and fauna and also helps reduce the risk of wildfires in the summer months. I had a longish lens on (technical term 😉) so wasn't too close to the ponies or the fire but another group of people decided to walk closer. The ponies who generally ignore people came up to them and were trying to nudge them away from the fire. I can't say that was 100% what happened but it definitely seemed to be the case!
Many thanks for all the kind comments and faves on my images. Have a great weekend everyone.
Couldn't help thinking this cloud looked just like the ones you used to see on the tv weather forecast, with two rain streaks below them...
At a recent campsite, morning light started around the corner and we had to wait our turn for any warmth of the sun to reach us. Until then, everything was wet with dew, which usually means a good forecast for the day to come: "When the dew is on the grass, rain will never come to pass; When grass is dry at morning light, look for rain before the night."
Another reverse-lens macro. I think the plant is a Grevillea of some description, I picked a flower when I was on one of my walks and brought it home to photograph, flowers in my own garden being in short supply :-)
It's freezing here at the moment and they are forecasting snow, our first touch of winter after a very warm May.
Have a great evening or day everyone :-))

Was forecast 100% cloud this morning so nearly stayed in bed, but seeing i was off work i took a chance and hey presto breaks in the cloud and plenty of them

Threave Castle, Castle Douglas, Dumfries and Galloway. The forecast for this morning was mist, anyone who follows my photography will know that I like nothing better than a good bit of mist. Unfortunately the mist wasn't close enough to the castle, so I decided to see what sunrise brought. The is not always the ideal location for sunrise, (its behind you), but if you have the right clouds you might be lucky, but what you will definately always get is that point where the sun comes over the hill behind you and lights up the castle perfectly.
Another cool start to the day, both in weather and trains. A trio of EMDs lead southbound loads at Zim with morning puffies overhead that added some great texture to the sky.
Another Winter in New England that, while mild over all, just won't let go. Snow in the forecast for tomorrow and sub-zero temps and "significant snow" in the forecast for the next week, as well. The gardens are happy for snow but the humans are ready for Spring.

Whimsical weather above Ameide, the Netherlands.
Taken from the other side of the Lek river. This cloud was determinative in my photo trip this morning. It changed colour and shape, but as I drove forward over the Lekdike, this cloud was constantly 'following' me, on the other side of the Lek, providing me with perfect photo opportunities ánd dry feet.
As the sun rose, the raincloud provided something else... a rainbow. A passing ship completed the shot for me. What do you think?
Taken last Friday using A7RM2 using the CZ jena pancolar. We knew there was a fog forecast and as I rarely get a foggy photo we drove to this lovely wood near Louth. Unfortunately for my dreams of mist we were stuck in traffic behind two seperate tractors because agricultural land around here is all ready to be harvested so we should have expected it. Of course drivers were naturally being careful too so i'm not complaining. We should have set off earlier that's all. There was some mist left which kept drenching me when I was beneath the trees but I enjoyed myself and so did our two dogs. Jonathan said he did but he is such a selfless person he would say that anyway... I didn't take much close up but instead stopped the lens down to mainly f/5.6 or f/8 but don't remember which this was. The info actually showed ISO 1000 because it was fairly dull but the sun was trying to break through…
Well, well, well. Look who was outside checking up on things weather wise.

Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday
Lulworth Cove & Stair Hole, Dorset (6 x 3 Bracketed)
Having been to Lulworth Cove the weekend before I knew I wanted to return to shoot the Stair Hole overlook. The forecast for last Saturday on most of the weather apps I use had clear blue skies but a couple had some high level cloud in the area. I decided to take a chance so it was another 4am wake-up and coffee in the car on the way down. As I was walking up the muddy path in the early part of blue hour I could see a bit of high level could around so crossed my fingers and kept going. As you can see from the photo I (and the other 2 Togs present) were rewarded with some lovely colours. After getting my single shots I shot the above as a set 6 sets of 3 bracket images (18 total) to get the extra width I wanted and with lots of overlap. Would have been nice if the tide was higher (it was close to low tide here) but then again if it were by the time I went down into Stair Hole I'd not have been able to get the shots I did there (yes more to come!).
I did later reward myself for the early start with a crab & Lobster burger from the food stall near the beach😋😋.
Thanks for viewing.
