This was taken in Sydney Australia. I waited over 30 minutes for the storm to pass. Eventually the sun shine through. I hope you can feel the power of nature as I did when I saw this scenery. (I am really enjoying black & White)

Wajima lacquer style (Wajima-nuri)
The most famous lacquerware in Japan is “Wajima-nuri”. Most Japanese people know the word, “Wajima-nuri”, even those who are not familiar with lacquerware.
Wajima-nuri is lacquerware made in Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture. Ishikawa Prefecture is famous as a production region of lacquerware. Yamanaka lacquerware is also well known in this region in addition to Wajima-nuri.
Lacquerware has been produced in Wajima, Ishikawa, since olden days. Jūzō Shrine in this city is known to have the oldest example of the Wajima-nuri style that exists today. This shrine has a door that was coated with vermillion lacquer in the year 1397.
The soil in this land is something that supports the Wajima-nuri style lacquerware. In Wajima City, there is a mountain called “Jinokoyama” where soil that is perfect for this style of lacquerware is obtained.
In the lacquerware making, the process called shitaji (undercoats) is necessary. Performing shitaji creates a hard and durable lacquerware. Lacquer is applied onto the shitaji undercoats, so one can consider shitaji as “the base of lacquer layers”.
A mixture of powder called “jinoko” and lacquer is used for the shitaji undercoats. “The soil from Jinokoyama” mentioned earlier is used for this jinoko powder. The soil from Jinokoyama in Wajima City is called “Wajima jinoko”.
Wajima jinoko is known as high-quality soil for the shitaji undercoats. Due to this type of soil, it became possible to produce durable lacquerware, which is difficult to create in other locations.
Wajima-nuri has been noted for its durability with the use of this special soil, but it is also known for its elegance.
Sometimes, decorations are added to lacquerware after being coated with lacquer. In the case of Wajima-nuri, “chinkin”, which rubs gold into the grooves, and “makie”, which draws a picture with powdered gold or silver, are well known. In addition to the fact that it is strong, the beauty of decorations is also a signature of Wajima-nuri style lacquerware.
It is said that the Wajima-nuri technique was established during the Edo Period (From 1603 to 1868). Some techniques such as chinkin and makie were consolidated during this period.- Traditional Culture of Japan

The Guide Falls are a gentle flow in summer and a raging torrent during winter. A very beautiful site. Also a must see near here is a visit to the cheese factory for cheese buying and tasting. Australia

Searching for compositions in the dark, I came across this natural pathway leading toward the rising milky way.
I've opened up dates in March for photographing scenes like this for anyone interested in leveling up their night photography in one of the most beautiful desert landscapes and designated night sky parks, Death Valley.

Here is the second image from Iceland, captured in a place you may not have heard of: Grjótagjá. This cave is one of the most challenging locations I’ve ever photographed a dog in.
While traversing the entire country, we paused in the northeast to explore beautiful locations like this geothermal lava cave, historically used for bathing due to its hot waters.
Entering was no easy feat; the areas where one could stand were very limited, with just two entrances providing opportunities for photography. Our model displayed remarkable courage, adapting beautifully to this unconventional environment.
Inside the cave, gusts of wind stirred, and the steam obscured my view of the subject in the distance. I’m grateful that Bosì could stay on the rock undisturbed for a few moments, allowing the wind to settle, enabling a clearer shot.
