Looking at the weather forecast decided on a trip to Hatch Hill this morning before getting to work on the ark this afternoon. It was warm but cloudy which meant there was lots of butterfly activity but they weren't completely supercharged.
I must have seen 8 to 10 mating pairs of Chalkhill Blues and it seems there season is in full swing. I was lucky to catch some of the pairs really well isolated making life easier when taking the shots.
I didn't make the most of May and June in the Peak District being occupied elsewhere.
With a short period of good weather forecast I headed north after work on Friday afternoon, slept in my car overnight then, after a couple of hours post dawn headed off to collect my daughter from Nottingham Uni who had finished her first year.
I spent Friday evening in Lathkill Dale. The lighting was very good, although here at Parson's Tor with the high near horizon in the northwest, the sun left the foreground well before sunset
the weather forecast is fantastic for the next days, so i decided to travel a bit through the rhoen mountains to enjoy the weather and the nature.
i am sorry that i wasn't able to catch up all recent postings of my friends and contacts after my return from switzerland. there is always too less time and sometimes i really have set priorities for some private things... i hope you understand. but i will do my best to catch up soon - promised.
see you soon. i won't stay long.
The phone alarm went off at 5 am - far to early for my liking. This previous day I had checked the weather forecast and was very pleased to see that the morning should bring a mixture of clouds and sun. The forecast was spot on!
However, I had not predicted being eaten up by mosquitos. After 15+ mosquito bites I had the shots on my memory card.
This was photographed at Cap de Creus, just 20 minute drive from a stunning Spanish village called Cadaques.
I used the 10 stop "big stopper" to blur the water and merged the water with the "normal" exposure in photoshop.
Sunrise & Snow, the weather forecast this morning was for snow in the morning..well I just had to see if they were right. There was a really nice sunrise which this was only the edge of as I was facing the wrong direction, still I got a good view, a few minutes after this shot I couldn't see the mountains in view here. A great morning driving around Ullswater getting the complete mixture of snow, rain, wind, hale, sunshine and light..Lets just say I was able to bag a few images.
Dark. Continued dark overnight, with widely scattered light by morning.

The weather forecast on the Japanese television on 2019-10-12.
""Typhoon Hagibis developed from a tropical disturbance located a couple hundred miles north of the Marshall Islands on October 2, 2019. The Joint Typhoon Warning Center issued a red tropical cyclone formation alert - noting that the disturbance could undergo rapid intensification upon being identified as a tropical depression.
On the next day, October 3, both the Japan Meteorological Agency and the Joint Typhoon Warning Center began issuing advisories on Tropical Depression 20W.
The depression stayed at the same intensity as it travelled west toward the Mariana Islands on October 4, but on October 5, 20W began undergoing rapid intensification and early that day, the system was issued with the name "Hagibis" by the JMA, which means speed in Filipino.
Sea surface temperatures and wind shear became extremely favourable for tropical cyclogenesis and Hagibis started extremely rapid intensification on October 6, and became a Category 5 super typhoon in under 12 hours - the second of the 2019 Pacific typhoon season.
Edging closer to the uninhabited areas of the Mariana Islands, Hagibis displayed excellent convection as well as a well defined circulation. The system developed a pinhole eye and made landfall on the Northern Mariana Islands, at peak intensity with 10-minute sustained winds of 195 km/h (120 mph) and a central pressure of 915 hPa (27.02 inHg).
Land interaction did not affect Hagibis too much, but as the system continued to mature, it underwent an eyewall replacement cycle, which is usual for all tropical cyclones of a similar intensity.
The inner eyewall was robbed of its needed moisture and Hagibis began to weaken, but it formed a large and cloud-filled eye, which then became clear and it reached its second peak. Travelling toward Japan, Hagibis encountered high vertical wind shear and its inner eyewall began to degrade, and the outer eyewalls rapidly eroded as its center began to be exposed.
On October 12, Hagibis made landfall on Japan at 19:00 p.m JST (10:00 UTC) on the Izu Peninsula near Shizuoka. Then, an hour later at 20:00 p.m. JST, (11:00 UTC), Hagibis made its second landfall on Japan in the Greater Tokyo Area. Wind shear was now at 60 knots (69 mph; 111 km/h), and Hagibis' structure became torn apart as it sped at 34 knots (39 mph; 63 km/h) north-northeast toward more hostile conditions.
On October 13, Hagibis became an extratropical low and the JMA and JTWC issued their final advisories on the system. Hagibis caused catastrophic destruction across much of eastern Japan. A large tornado, which struck the Ichihara area of Chiba Prefecture during the onset of Hagibis, along with a 5.7 magnitude earthquake off the coast, has caused additional damage to these affected areas.""

When I was young, it was common to see barometers or barographs in people’s houses. They helped people forecast the weather, by measuring changes in atmospheric pressure – before the advent of regular TV weather shows, radar and computerised weather models.
This photo shows the ink bottle of my barograph. The ink is for the pen that draws the pressure line on the graph-paper, as a wind-up clock spins the graph-paper. You can see the silhouette of the pen in the back ground – and lines moving up, indicating higher pressure.
Today, it’s very unusual to see barographs in houses around here.

The day had started with quite a lot of cloud cover - I couldn't help thinking that perhaps we'd contributed to it... Rebuilt Bulleid Pacific 34027 "Taw Valley" pollutes the Worcestershire air as it rounds Safari Curve on the Severn Valley Railway during a Matt Fielding photo charter
The weather forecast has promised sunny intervals and rainy showers.Normally at this time of year that is code for a very good sky.It didn't materialise but you have to make the best of what nature gives you.

The weather forecast stated a 0% probability of rain, but this was our first shot of the day and we all got a fair soaking in the process!
Most southbound services ran late too, the 1V91 05.33 Holyhead to Cardiff Central was 45 minutes to the bad.
30th May 2019:
The weather forecast told us that it would be much better and brighter this afternoon, so I waited and waited ..... without the sun coming out.
Time was running out and the other photos I had as backup looked dreadful, so I waited a bit more. Finally our Blackbird came into the garden and I grabbed a shot through the patio window.
Hope it cheers up again soon, this dull weather isn't doing me any good. :0(
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
The weather forecast was iffy, and we considered hiking another day. THANK GOODNESS we went, because it was a perfect day's hike: not too hot, not too cold; a little breeze to keep things fresh; and a trail with snow nicely packed down, but not icy. It was a bit unusual for us, because we could see from the cloud movement there were big winds afoot, but this time, they were from the north, and we were completely sheltered from them the entire hike. An odd thing happened as well. Early, we met a fellow descending on a mountain bike. He looked a little worried, because he lost track of his dog Cypress. When we returned to the trailhead, we saw that his car was gone, so we're assuming there was a happy ending to his story. Total return distance, 7.4 km's, total elevation gain, 706 m's, moving time, 2 hrs, 27 minutes; total time, 3 hrs, 17 minutes.
The weather forecast was right - unfortunately. Dull, misty, light drizzle - and not a breath of wind. The exhaust hung in the air, minutes after the train had passed.
With a bad weather forecast for Saturday a while back and some other plans we went out for a hike on Friday.
We both had the whole week off and did enjoy the days off with some nice days and also a few days with some rain and lower temperatures
Decided to visit the Boswachterij Gees nature reserve while the weather would still be nice. Followed some of the available trails did enjoy the time spend there.
Took as we basically always do one of our Canon Eos 3 cameras with us. Decided to load it with some Ilford XP2 Super 400 for a change
Developing was done with our Cinestill Cs41 kit at 39c and 4 minutes after some struggles with the spool. Did have some issues loading the film. So I ended up with a film with some scratches and spots, but still do like the results
This was the ninth film with the new batch of developer mixed on September 9 2020
Curious if we can reach over 25 films again and 10 months with this new batch.
The previous developer batch was used to develop 28 films (135-36 format) over an period of 10 months without any problems.
The Cinestill CS41 does stay in good working condition if kept cool, dark and oxygen free.
The weather forecast was not for unusually high winds (it's VERY often quite windy in this area), so we planned a hike to the summit of Loder Peak. But on arrival, the winds were much stronger than we like, so we set out regardless, mainly because it was relatively warm, just above zero ° C. The strong winds kept up, and seemed to increase in speed the higher we got. While the winds didn't drive the 'feels like' temperature into an uncomfortable range, it was a nuisance and one had to be quite careful in spots to avoid being knocked off-balance. Door Jamb Mountain summit is around 1950 m's above sea level.
We walked just under 5 km's return distance, gained 637 m's in elevation gain, taking 2 hours, 45 minutes to do so.
Tomorrow it will be tropically warm in the Netherlands, temperatures can reach 40 degrees C. According to the weather forecast.
With the weather forecast for last weekend looking so good, I was struggling to decide where to go last Sunday. We ended up at RSPB Frampton Marsh and had a good day with many wintering birds still lingering alongside a number of spring migrants. This ruff was on the edge of one of the pools and gradually began walking towards the hide. It got closer and closer until it had a sudden realisation of where it was and scampered back the way it had came
The weather forecast in the UK has been predicting major snowstorms. I took this with a pinch of salt knowing the British propensity for panic reporting but I did actually find some snow today up in the Welsh mountains. That's Snowdonia in the far background, shrouded in cloud.
The weather forecast predicted some NLC display so I headed out to see it. While quite nice the were visible just barely above the horizon. I was hoping for more clouds like this around the sky this setting allowed to see the milky way at the same time as the NLC - pretty cool :)
Anyway the sky was pretty bright, I had to choose ISO 1600 and even stopped down to f/2.8 to not overexpose the highlights (NLC). This lead to a generally low visibility of the night sky.
NLC happen mostly in summer and when viewed to the north. They are located in the Mesopause, about 90-100km above earth (imagine this, there are clouds in 'space'). Also I have never seen such pattern of clouds (apart from the forum post the other day). These clouds are the highest clouds by a big margin (nex would be 60km lower or so!)
This work is the latest in a series in which I am trying to describe the under-standing of things - their actual state as entangled environments of understanding, prior to the condition of these environments coalescing and be-coming real as objects we sense. In other words, we (all things) are constantly re-creating and being re-created by the things around us, as moment within moments of under-standing. We are profoundly entangled.
I am an environmental artist/philosopher, and Flickr is my chosen working environment. This means that I am always trying to pay attention to the group environments in which I post my work, because they are the contexts of my context-related work.
The work above was originally associated with the following text (entitled): on the under-standing of 'black' of 'white' - because I was posting it (a polychrome image) into groups which are exclusively for monochrome and black & white images. My intention was (as it always is) to raise the profile of universal understanding, (the mechanics of which means that our relatedness with all other things is of 'under-standing-with' the others, in be-coming real as temporo-spatial entities) by introducing a deconstructive play of colour into a monochromatic environment.
However, it was very quickly pointed out that the previous title - on the under-standing of 'black' of 'white' - might be read in a way which is DIAMETRICALLY opposed to my intentions. Hence the reason I have changed the associated text to 'on the under-standing of 'the sky' of 'weather forecasts in general'.
For once the BBC weather forecast was correct. Cloudy all day with the sun making an appearance at 17.00 for an hour. Spot on, or at least it made an appearance for 30 minutes. I needed yet more luck too. I wanted tractors as the traction (as the past two weekends DRS swapped the sheds for Tractors). as well as wanting 37424 allocated and on the front. Just to add to my wish list, I wanted the train to run early. Well three out of four wasn't bad.
So, the usual spot for the shot at Keld near Appleby is further down the field (see Jonathan Lewis shot here www.flickr.com/photos/23240320@N04/45317835321/in/datepos...) but as I plodded across, pole at the ready, ping, out came the sun and lit those trees against the dark hills and skies. This had to be the frame given the golden light. No rich processing here, this really was the colour of the light. It was golden.

The weekend weather forecast for NS' 2015 Santa Train isn't looking all that great, so I decided to pull something from the HighHor$epower archives.
Back in 2011 a railfan in a red C4 Chevy Corvette tears past me on old US 36 as the Santa Train prepares to head back east to Decatur after making a "Dekalb Turn".

24/12/2018; The weather forecast predicted a higher chance of seeing polar stratospheric clouds on this particular day, so I went to Durgerdam, where I managed to find me a nice spot where I should have a good view on these polar stratospheric clouds.
Sadly the regular clouds have gotten the overhand when the magic was supposed to begin, which is typical for my luck with these natural phenomena anyway. Hence why I also chose Durgerdam, keeping in mind that at least I would have been in town already for a plan B, which ended up being this.

The weather forecast showed snow in the forecast. I had been waiting for it since June.
We went a couple days ahead of the storm to be close by when it did snow. It was the right amount of snow. Enough to make it beautiful , & still be able to access it
Wild Horse Creek is beautiful in any season. The road isn't too bad as far as the campground. Most people don't venture beyond that. Then the road is real rough for about quarter of a mile. I have been here enough to know the beauty that lies just up the road
Once again the tracks in the snow are ours from going up.

The Sun emitted a strong solar flare, peaking at 7:14 p.m. ET on July 2, 2023. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which watches the Sun constantly, captured an image of the event.
Solar flares are powerful bursts of energy. Flares and solar eruptions can impact radio communications, electric power grids, navigation signals, and pose risks to spacecraft and astronauts.
This flare is classified as an X1.0 flare. X-class denotes the most intense flares, while the number provides more information about its strength.

NASA works as a research arm of the nation's space weather effort. NASA observes the Sun and our space environment constantly with a fleet of spacecraft that study everything from the Sun's activity to the solar atmosphere, and to the particles and magnetic fields in the space surrounding Earth.

Due to the weather forecast being for heavy snow "up North" We decided to go down the Northumbrian coastal route and visit Bamburgh and area .
Despite being layered up in appropriate clothing it was bitterly cold in the strong north east wind.
Thanks for your Comments and Views.
ABOUT THE CASTLE
The historic capital of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Northumbria. Bamburgh Castle is the king of Castles. Believed to have been occupied for over 10,000 years the castle has evolved from a wooden palisade to the formidable fortress it is today. The first castle in England to fall to canon fire as the Wars of Roses drew to a close.
It was also one of the world's first 'coastguard' stations and the site for the development and testing of the World's first 'lifeboat'. Under the ownership of the Crewe Trustees it housed a school, hospital and was the centre of its own mini 'welfare state'. Bought by the First Lord Armstrong in 1894 it is still owned by the Armstrong family who play an active part in its operation and maintenance.
With sunny weather forecasted, it was the perfect opportunity to cover this daytime working in a scenic setting - here we see Freightliner locomotives 90041 (front) and 90049 (rear) head north on the WCML through Docker in Cumbria with the late running 06:03 Basford Hall to Coatbridge (4S50) intermodal on the morning of the 31/7/20.
The weather forecast for the weekend was very optimistic, so I took the chance for a photo weekend in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Thanks to a good friend I also got a nice place to stay on location :o)

The weatherman lied. All the weather forecasts said there was going to be strong chances of rain throughout the day. I had given some thought about doing a shot related to the rain.... It only rained for about 20 minutes mid morning and only LOOKED like it would rain for a portion of the day.
This ended up being a rush job as I do try to get to bed at a reasonable hour, therefore I'm not staying up until midnight trying to get "the" shot for this 365 project. Sometimes, if it's good enough, then it'll have to do. I am at peace with the fact that not every shot it going to be better than the last, but I just can't let myself become complacent and not push myself to get better. Time is a factor, but I have seen some other 365 projects where that didn't hinder the person. I think it's more of a confidence issue for me - I want to try to do something that seems original with my photos. I have ideas, but I don't quite know how to get them out of my head and into the camera. And I don't want to feel like I am copying someone else's shot all the time. I just feel like I'm hitting the proverbial wall.
Anyway, with that out of the way, this is a revisit of a similar shot I did a while back (which was kind of a copy of something I had seen elsewhere a couple of time, hence my little "rant" above). Only this time, I had to use off camera flash in the place of natural sunlight, and I used a lime instead of a lemon. And a different background, which happens to be the same background as my oil and water shot a few days ago. Bounced the flash (with a black card wrapped around it to act sort of like a snoot) off the background from camera left and had a white card in front of the lime to the camera right. Had to clean some things up in Photoshop, but still not 100% happy in some areas (mostly some cloning of some dirt/smudge marks I noticed after the fact). Used a new technique using the Unshrp mask that I learned about today.
And hopefully I will get into a creative groove and have something more interesting and thought provoking tomorrow.

The weather forecast was for more cloud coverage in the afternoon but it turned out to be a stunning day in the north-west. What a marvellous sight this was for the assembled gallery a Scot over the S&C with a matching stock in full sun.Working hard trying to make up some of the lost time 46115 was in superb form at this wonderful location.
Good to meet up with Ken Snowden and Henry Elliott in Kirkby Stephen and Birkett. Long day and plenty of waiting but all came good in the end. Image re-tweaked from previous posted one which lost some detail in the left hand side sky.

We learn from the weather forecast that snow flurries will be coming to Vancouver area in the weekend.
There is one white flake coming early to Finn Slough.
Wish you a great Friday!

At that day, weather forecast was as wrong as could be. They told us that above 2000 m we should have clear sky above a sea of clouds and best distant view. The truth in reality was a thick high fog starting at around 2000 m altitude or even higher :-)
The humid air came in from south ovest, so I went to the western dolomites on my way back home. Val de Mesdi at Kolfuschg is a wonderful place that I love and the clouds were beginning to wrap the higher mountians, anyhow there was some fascinating blue shine over the little vallley. I took several single shots for some panoramas with different focal length, each of them has its own charm in my view given the different angles of view.
This is the narrow version with concentrated view to the Val de Mesdi. 3 shots from the tripod were taken with the 150 mm lens (which would be 95 mm for 24x36) and merged in photoshop.
