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".
A moody day looking at North Cascade National Park's Diablo Lake. For some reason there weren't many folks here, enjoying the light rain. The silence was delightfully deafening.
Seems we photographers can no longer head out in July or August for good landscape shots in the Pacific NW. The air is unhealthy and smothers the scenic views with all the continual, chronic summer wildfires. For those who love experiencing nature's gifts this is heartbreaking.
Speaking of silence, that's how this planetary crisis is being addressed by those in power. Regardless of your take on climate change the facts and damage are undeniably right in front of us. It is agonizing witnessing this tragedy grow worse with each year.......We photographers get it, may the rest wake up and address it soon.
Stepping off my soapbox now. Enjoy your Wednesday!
Your comments, faves and suggestions are always appreciated. Thank you!
Yesterday, we had some snow less than what the forecast predicted—at least in our area. Went outdoors early in the morning to take/make some shots. It was 10 below freezing and my mittens were ineffective. I still feel the tingling at the tip of the button-pressing finger. Stay warm!
A change of pace for today. The town where I live is at present surrounded by bushfires, the town is cut off to the north, south and west by fires. I took this photo last Friday around the middle of the day, the glow of fires completely covered the sky while burned leaves, pieces of charred bark and ash fell like confetti from the sky.
This photo was taken outside my home on the street where I live. Since the fires started more than a week ago, an estimated 350 Koalas have lost their lives along with countless other wildlife.
We have a government that does not believe in climate change, but in my 70+ years I have never seen such a sight. The fires continue, and more extreme hot weather is forecast for the week ahead.

Wishing my dear friend, Suzy (bulldog1), a very happy birthday! Unfortunately, the forecast for the weather where Suzy lives is to be cold, cloudy, and maybe rainy on Friday, February 9th, which is Suzy's birthday. If that is, in fact, your weather today, Suzy, I hope this image will brighten up your day. You and your beautiful photos and delightful photo stories have certainly brightened up a lot of my days! Happy Birthday, Suzy! Wishing you a wonderful day and hoping that the coming year is a happy, healthy one for you and Jazzy JJ. Love and hugs!

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...
Enjoy your weekend everyone, I will catch up with your beautiful photos tonight or over the weekend!! PS. Very hot here today, around 38° and 40° is forecast for Sunday!!
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."

The forecast said plenty of fog and mist, but as usual they got it wrong {again}, still, there was a small amount of mist first thing, so not all bad !.
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
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️
Ok it is still not may in germany. But I was crawling in my file archive from last year and found one of my usual "single-tree-images".
Just a symbol against the cold eastern weather :-)
Day break at Xianggong Hill.
Xianggong Hill is located near Putao Town in the Yangshuo countryside, offering spectacular views overlooking the Lijiang River and Mountains. It's a two hour drive from Guilin and then half an hour hike to the top. When the forecast is for clear sky at sunrise, couple of hundred photographers come for the shoot. You have to to be there at least one hour before the sunrise, as to get a decent place at the top.
Every year in Spring the Common Cranes arrive in Sweden from Spain and Germany. They have arrived to perform their mating dance. It is a spectacle I have looked forward to for years and it did not disappoint. The first two days the weather was really bad, torrential rain and low visibility and -6deg C
Cranes are monogamous and most arrive with their partners among the thousands of other birds, whooper swans, coots, grebes and geese. The call and noise of these birds is deafening but a sight to behold. Day 3 finally the weather forecast showed good weather but -15C. It was a wonderful red, orange sky, aflame with thousands of birds arriving.
They flew across the flaming sky and danced, pirouetting, bowing which helps in establishing life long bonds with existing and new partners.
When nesting, Common cranes "paint" their bodies with mud or decaying vegetation, apparently in order to blend into their nesting environment. The nest is either in or very near shallow water, often with dense shore vegetation nearby, and may be used over several years.
Mythology has it that the crane, if treated with due respect, will bring luck, success and a long life. Farmers in western Sweden have a long tradition of paying homage to the bird by mimicking its leggy gait in a ritual dance around the farmhouse.
An amazing experience despite the freezing temperatures and one that I will always remember.

Enjoying the balmy & like spring weather in my town!

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.
Snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis) in the warm, sunset light.
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.
The breakwater protects a small area of sea frontage which shelters the slipway from the small village of Mappleton, East Riding of Yorkshire.
Our inclement winter weather is forecast to continue into the foreseeable future. Despite the inconveniences, few people are begrudging the moisture after the volatile wildfire season we just experienced. The good news is, the post office still delivers the mail on schedule. As you can tell from the mailboxes along the road, some of us still get mail the old fashioned way. Email is a great convenience but I find an old fashioned letter, penned in cursive is still the most exciting way to get correspondence from a friend.
Happy Fence Friday with mailboxes everyone.

After taking this shot i realised that the sign actually looks like an abstract painting of the landscape. Well, sort of.

This is Gracie Jo, the semi-feral cat we are trying to coax indoors. Today's forecast was for a "wintry mix", lots of wind, etc. At lunch time, Gracie Jo ran pretty quickly to the back door (before I could take her food up to her heated area in the workshop), so it seemed like a good time to try whisking her inside. I got her into the laundry room without her biting or scratching me. Just about that time the wind picked up and the rain turned to sleet & I think Gracie Jo must have been okay with being inside for a little while.
