After taking this shot i realised that the sign actually looks like an abstract painting of the landscape. Well, sort of.
Shot is taken at sunset in the forelands of the river IJssel near Olst.
The Shipping Forecast is a BBC Radio broadcast of weather reports and forecasts for the seas around the British Isles. It is produced by the Met Office and broadcast by BBC Radio 4 on behalf of the Maritime and Coastguard Agency. The forecast dates back over 150 years. There are currently four broadcasts per day at the following (UK local) times: 00:48, 05:20, 12:01, and 17:54.
The Shipping Forecast began life, on 24 August 1867, and was originally a series of telegraph messages sent to harbour towns to warn of impending storms. There had been some efforts to predict and warn about incoming weather via scientific means before this – pioneered by Robert FitzRoy following a catastrophic storm in 1859 that killed 800 mariners off the coast of Wales.
Sadly, FitzRoy didn’t live to see his ideas become a permanent fixture of British life: he killed himself in 1865, in part because of his frustration at failing to set up a regular service.
Today shipping forecasts are common all over the world.
Looking forward, looking back …
Empty, blunt, loose, dim,
hidden Way! Ever-present,
born before the gods.
—Lao Tse, “Tao Te Ching” ch4
Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?
I’ve stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
I’ve walked and I’ve crawled on six crooked highways
I’ve stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
I’ve been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
I’ve been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard
And it’s a hard, and it’s a hard, it’s a hard, and it’s a hard
And it’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall
—Bob Dylan, A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall

The stone is wet - rain
The stone is dry - it does not rain
The stone casts a shadow - the sun is out
Above the stone there is white - snow
The stone is not seen - fog
The stone sways - wind
The stone jumps up and down - earthquake
The stone is gone - whirlwind

The weather forecast today said wall to wall sun, no cloud, for the area I needed to go.. So I thought I would go out and hunt down some of these. Can anyone please explain why I spent four hours in a freezing cold mist that wasn't forecast. How could they be so WRONG???
Archive shot.
Thank you for looking at my images. It's much appreciated
Cremorne Point lighthouse.
The forecast promised good cloud at dawn, but it wasn't to be.
Still a good morning talking to some local fishermen who had been there since 2:00am. They hadn't caught anything, but seemed to be enjoying themselves anyway.
The forecast had called for clouds, but I woke up at 4 anyway. When I looked out from my hotel window, the tip of Mount Fuji was already visible — clear and silent in the pre-dawn haze.
I quickly dressed and rushed outside, knowing I was probably ten minutes too late to reach a cleaner, unobstructed vantage point. I didn’t expect to see Fuji’s elusive reflection either, so I settled for a spot just in front of the hotel.
And that’s when my Arca-Swiss ballhead screw jammed — for the first time ever. As the sky began to open up, the reflection suddenly emerged, just for a moment. I scrambled, fought with my gear, and managed to fire off a few rushed, imperfect frames.
They weren’t perfect. But they held the truth of that morning — chaotic, fleeting, and quiet — exactly as it happened.
Today's Forecast: Blistering Heat and Bone-Dry! Chances of this dry stream bed filling with water: Less than nil.
I had the questionably good fortune of spending a night camping in my vehicle in this foreboding and forsaken landscape. Nothing stirred during the day (except I did spot a lizard). After sunset, however, the desert came to life. I heard various types of critters making noises throughout a rather sleepless night.

The tide forecast was low tide and I thought I would go for the wheels but the tide was just a bit high for that shot.
Some lovely clouds so I was happy about that.

Good evening, residents.
Today’s forecast across the grid shows scattered roleplay storms in the medieval regions, heavy shopping showers at the latest events, and a strong wave of creativity moving through the artistic sims.
Travel advisory: teleport delays possible during peak hours.
Fashion pressure remains high, and there’s a 90% chance of dramatic entrances after sunset.
This has been your Second Life Weather Network ,where imagination sets the climate.

Seems like I am due a doomed trip to the Lake District. This started the weekend before when I slipped in muddy conditions on a long walk in the Yorkshire Wolds. No idea what I did to my ankle but I won't be running up any mountains.
The second was the forecast, all doom and gloom, like we have been getting for the past few weeks in the UK. I was therefore surprised to wake up yesterday to a hint of a break in the sky, so I limped from my accommodation down to the lakeside in Keswick. To my joy there was some limited colour in the sky and mist on the lake that came and went.
Most guidebooks will tell you to head for Friar's Crag, advice I've ignored in the past in favour of Strandshag Bay, just further on. But as I was finishing up I went up to the slightly elevated view point. Through the vegetation I saw this little island just off the shoreline with the bushes/trees standing out in contrast to the misty background. It was a delicate scramble down on my ankle but I'm glad I did. Light refused to come out on Catbells but it was still really atmospheric.
I searched for photo's of Friar's Crag on Flickr when I got back and was surprised to not find any similar compositions, maybe it's hidden from most perspectives. I can't believe it's an original composition, but I'm not complaining! Lets see what the rest of the trip brings.....
With the forecast being for snow, I ventured out to see what I might find. This mated pair of eagles were calling to each other. In this photograph, the male (smaller of the two) is calling to the female. Focusing in heavy snow like this was a challenge. I used single point / one shot focus and shot in bursts. It would take several seconds for the camera to lock focus and often it would lock on snow and not the eagles. I'm glad to have gone out and captured them in these conditions and hope to do more snowfall shots next winter. Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, USA, March 2025

The forecast was for a very active aurora tonight, so I went to Cleary Summit (a pass in the White Mountains northeast of Fairbanks.
While the forecast wasn't especially accurate, this is a good place to get a view with the higher altitude and a good view to the northeast.
The bright spot is the moon, which doesn't get very big with the fisheye lens.
It's gonna be a clear and nice morning when the sun rise, 20 minutes later outside to take a shot of that sunrise.
It's got to be ............

Planned on bluebell hunting at sunrise yesterday morning in Sherwood Forest where I've seen some lovely images from already this year, hence why I was 100 miles from home at 5am. The forecast looked great for sunrise.
The dog started to limp when I let her out for a toilet break so the bluebells and woodlands were off the cards for the day. Pleased to say she's better today but no ball chasing for a week at least.
It ended up as a morning of reccying locations in this area, which I'm happy to say I found all of. One of which I never would have found without the help of a friendly local who walks his dogs there each morning. I'm never going to get to shoot it in the conditions Steve Cole had simply because of the distance from home but this magical shot of his was the reason I went searching for it.

I realised where I was close to, so I opted for Sawley Cut and Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station at sunrise.
Zero steam from the cooling towers when we first got there. This was taken at 06:07 and the first wisps started to show as people got up to start their day and pop the kettle on.
The current forecast says that the rain and cooler than average temperatures that we have been having here in California should be moving out of the area. Next week promises to be sunny and warmer. Our volunteer projects here at Gleanings for the Hungry are also almost completed, so it is about time for my wife and I to leave. We will have limited Internet access while traveling, so I will not be active on Flickr for a while. I am hoping to have lots of photo taking opportunities though. HGGT
Retail Forecast: Gloomy
Not many cases left either. 20 Suitcases in that window... maybe. Not much left to sell us.

The cloud forecast didn't eventuate so lots of driving meant a clear sky for sunrise.Shooting from Jones Beach as the big swell restricted access around the headland. I hadn't shot these comps before but I liked the reflections on the sand with perspective of the central 2 rocks.

Summerland lakeside swept through 4 weather systems in 5 minutes today. It's hard to know how to dress anymore. 8 shot pano taken with the mini 5 pro.
The weather forecasts and warnings for New Year's Eve were dire. But I slept like a babe, not even waking until 8.45....and it wasn't raining and it hadn't snowed. In fact, Loch Shiel with it's backdrop of mountains looked rather beautiful. I do hope it is an omen for the year, because all the signs, and general mood of the nation, is not good. Let's hope (and pray a little) everyone will see that Reeves and Starmer gloom was not justified
However, according to the weather forecast, it will snow tomorrow. 2024.3.17
早春の花の一つ、福寿草。でも天気予報によると明日は雪です。。。
This scene holds some raw power, for me. Particularly in reflecting a lost opportunity I had to gain insight into a very different understanding of the world (an Amish perspective). I try to stay away from regret, as I think it rarely serves much good… and I generally try not to do anything I would regret. But I do try to support the notion that something I would regret can otherwise be valued as a learning experience. In this case: a lesson in a missed chance. Blogged if you want clarity to this story.
In this shot, there are some strange tones in the sky, and I believe this had to do with the window reflection of the train.
