The prediction was that pearlescent clouds would be visible on Christmas Eve, but unfortunately too much and too thick clouds, so no pearlescent clouds.
De voorspelling was dat er parelmoerwolken zichtbaar zouden zijn op Kerst avond, maar helaas iets te veel en te dikke bewolking, dus geen parelmoerwolken.

This photo shows a part of the standing stones and doesn't cover the whole site.
The Calanais Standing Stones are an extraordinary cross-shaped setting of stones erected 5,000 years ago. They predate England’s famous Stonehenge monument, and were an important place for ritual activity for at least 2,000 years.
We don’t know why the standing stones at Calanais were erected, but our best guess is that it was a kind of astronomical observatory.
Patrick Ashmore, who excavated at Calanais in the early 1980s writes: ‘The most attractive explanation… is that every 18.6 years, the moon skims especially low over the southern hills. It seems to dance along them, like a great god visiting the earth. Knowledge and prediction of this heavenly event gave earthly authority to those who watched the skies.’

that's something you can google. sadly, in our town, it applies to great ideas for renovating failed sites which, in the end, fail themselves. we're still waiting for this one to live up to promise. the red paint is a start and we do like the grazing goats. but where are the creemies?
This female evening grosbeak isn't as colorful as her husband but she's still a striking bird in her own right. According to the Winter Finch Forecast for 2022-2023, evening grosbeaks had a banner nesting year across Canada, thanks to a spruce budworm outbreak there, and are expected to make a big push into the United States this winter, possibly as far south as places like Iowa. I'd say they were right on with that prediction!
The predictions for a dry winter didn't pan out. We hope this will prevent more forest fires this summer. This peak lies above and outside Ski Santa Fe boundaries. 12,404ft, taken at about 11,700 from across the cirque.
On my fifth day the weather predictions for coming days were awful and I decided to go into the direction of Roros (and later Trondheim), but first I drove along the E27 because it was said to be very scenic. I think that might be true, but with all the rain and darkness, I probably missed the most.
This amazingly beautiful viewpoint was spoiled (in a way), because with sun this is truly spectacular (www.nasjonaleturistveger.no/en/routes/rondane), and it crossed my mind many times I should go back if the weather in Norway turned better and I was around. Unfortunately it didn't so one good excuse to go back!
Norway, a stunningly beautiful country. Around every corner a chance for a scenic image, forcing me from time to time to stop every kilometer to get out of my car, sometimes with screeching brakes, and sometimes forcing me to curse because there was no place to stop.
Lovely valleys, bare mountains and cold winds, snow packs, glaciers, beautiful lakes, and then there are the enchanting fjords that never stop to amaze. The most beautiful country of Europe, for me no doubt about that, with only one minor aspect, which is the weather. During my month of traveling I only had 4 really nice days, the rest of the time clouds, rain, and very changeable! Still no regret, and I will go back to make even more than the 3500 pictures that I took this time.
Another very active vacation that took me to the south west up to Trondheim in a sort of triangle between Oslo- trondheim and Bergen with the whole route visible here (www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153668247101759&set...).
Prediction of rain will not hurt these beautiful Forget Me Nots so “Let It Rain”. It’s the middle of April so we expect rain most any day. These present such a soft touch to a garden. Thanks for viewing my work. The rains will not effect Gratitude and Kindness. Enjoy your Spring.
Seems like just a few weeks since I set out this Halloween decoration in my side yard. Not visible from the street, it was one of those things I did more for myself. I just liked the way it made me feel to encounter this eerie specter when I walked back by the edge of the forest. More than once it startled me as I had completely forgotten about it. Over time it had weathered to the point where it totally blended in with its surroundings. A very organic look that suits my mentality much more than the highly contrived decorations commonly associated with holidays.
If Halloween marks the onset of the dark phase of the year in the northern hemisphere, Groundhog Day certainly delineates the return of brightening. The actual groundhog 'prediction' is meaningless to me. It's really just a time marker; a waypoint on the journey of life. Day length is increasing noticeably. Springtime is roaring upon us just as rapidly as Halloween is receding. I suppose it's time to take down this celebration of darkness and begin to embrace the light. Then again I might just let it go for another week or two.
I had special permission to go shooting, I knew light would be special, there was many layers of clouds(I could see). Also, the web site prediction was showing RED on us. This is it, I was starting to think I would never see again those special ray of light !!!
A friend of mine, who also happens to be a former colleague, celebrates her birthday today. A few months back, she left her high-paying but highly stressful job (these always go hand-in-hand, don't they?) to focus on family and things that she really wants to do. It's a story I'm so familiar with.
And so today's photo is for her and for the many others who seek new beginnings, better life choices, and more hopefulness in this generally unpredictable world... myself, included.
♥ ... The prediction of our fate torments me ...

I fled to Trondheim because of the weather predictions, and although it was not that bad, I spend two days strolling around in dull grey weather. BTW Trondheim is a nice city with an old center, and very nice places to discover. At the end of a long day (the 7th) I went back to my campsite, a little disappointed, and when I had dinner suddenly the sky opened! I realized I had to go back because the spot in this picture should look great with the sun out. The clouds here are a bonus.
Although I was very eager to see them ASAP, I decided back home in Holland not to speed towards the coast on my first day because weather predictions weren't good for a while. So I took the detour of which you have seen a few shots already. Trondheim fjord is not the classic fjord shot, but this is a rather nice view, and I was lucky the sky opened a little bit before closing again. It's Norway.

Canoe to this section of ice formation that would be difficult to canoe on New Year hoping to have a paddle on the new year. This would be difficult but there is a weather prediction +8 degrees and rain that might reduce the ice along the shoreline and we might make it out safe here on our canoe.
Another view of the snow and broken ice below….
With predictions of the "storm of a generation" and a "bombogenesis" snowstorm for much of North America - for us directly, its a flash freeze, up to 100 km winds, and blizzard warnings, I'm mindful of all the people making plans to visit family over the Holidays. Please be careful! We've done more than our share of traveling over the years but this time, I'm grateful to be staying home. To all my Flickr friends, I sincerely hope you have a wonderful and safe Christmas!
Predictions for this day were snow on the Veluwe...
After a long expedition we arrived at the Veluwe near Doornspijk...
I have a decent camera but it wasn't able to notice the snow...
There seems to be a lot of berries this autumn, some believe this means that it will be a hard winter - HBW!
This female red-bellied woodpecker looked for her shadow today but couldn't find it since it was cloudy and foggy here at Lake Meyer Park in the morning. Maybe that means we won't have six more weeks of winter even though Punxsutawney Phi's prediction is probably spot-on for Pennsylvania.
I see bright colours after five dull days, So, today is gonna be a lovely day. That's my prediction !. But, I heard people say "You can't predict English weather."
For the past several weeks, Skyfire (the sunset prediction app you can purchase which works in conjunction with The Photographer's Ephemeris) has been striking out on a fairly consistent basis. For multiple weeks the app gave a prediction rating of 80% or higher for both sunrise and sunset here in Orange County only to have skies clear out at game time. My buddy Eric and I have taken to calling the app "Sky Liar" which seems like a much more a propos title for this service.
To be fair, Sunsetwx has also struck out on a number of occasions, but has been doing better than Skyliar. I should probably point out that I seldom head out for a shoot based strictly on these two apps. I almost always pull up the NOAA satellite imagery on the NWS website and have a quick look at the animation before setting off...just to make sure the folks behind Sky Liar aren't on crack.
But on this particular night, Sky Liar gave Corona Del Mar a 90 percent and Sunsetwx confirmed the prediction. For the first 40 minutes, I was pretty sure I was about to get skunked again, but suddenly I saw a bit of pink begin to glow in the West. 10 minutes later, the entire sky lit up and I set about trying to be in 10 places at once.
Add to that the fact that I caught it on a night when the tide was between 3-4 feet and it was a good night all around. Just when I was thinking I was the only one crazy enough to plow through waist high surf on my way out there, I ran into Joseph Chu who, as it turned out, was just as determined as I was to get a shot from Arch Rock during medium tide. I still haven't worked up the nerve to try that hike during a 5 foot tide or more...but maybe it's time to buy a kayak. :)
