...wait a moment please, maybe its wrong daytime? I'm sleepwalking again:).
Madeira, Portugal, View from our resort balcony.
post scriptum: The next day was really cloudy;).
The weather forecast was for a few hours of sunshine until mid afternoon, so I headed back to Hassop for another session with the Waxwings, where a significant flock still remains with plenty of Hawthorn berries to sustain them for a while yet.
Fortunately, it wasn't as busy as last Friday and in the last hour I managed to slip into a nice spot by the trailside dry stone wall to watch the flock coming down to feed on relatively isolated stems and then drop down to a flooded area in the adjacent field to bathe and drink, though the sun had begun to fade by then. It was a slightly surreal experience, since when not feeding, or bathing, the birds were sat above us in the higher treetop; consequently, there was a regular patter of semi-digested Hawthorn berries raining down, evacuated by the birds above!
Thank you for your faves and comments, much appreciated.
When the weather forecast predicts mist I often find myself out and about early in the morning.
This is the "Tweede Broekermolen" in Uitgeest as the first sun peeks through the morning fog.
These moments are the reason I bought a camera....

Weather forecast in Portugal is a Mess!!!!!
I miss wearing my Havainas, going to the beach, my tops and skirts.. the S un.. and especially beautiful skies to photograph.....
Damn Rainy Monday...

I had seen in the weather forecast that morning should bring high fog with a ceiling at about 800 meters. So early in the morning I set out for the Geissfluh, which is 980 meters high. In total darkness I climbed up with the help of a headlamp. Around me darkness and fog with a visibility of about 2 meters. Then night gave way to day - but the fog remained. I wandered around to find the sun. You could make out a glimpse of it above me - but the fog wouldn't go away! In the end I had to turn back without having seen a sea of fog... You can't always be lucky!

A single Snowdrop that I processed low key. I had heard the temperatures were going to drop to about minus 5/6 so you can imagine my horror when our heating seized up on Friday and why I had a little blip with my anxiety and which resulted in all the Majorcan uploads as I stayed in my computer room wearing two fleece jackets.. I was on the phone over four hours and only about 4.30 Friday afternoon did I get hold of someone who agreed to come and look the same day instead of the middle of this week.....A lovely kind young man came about 6.30 and did a temporary fix that gave us heating but with a small leak that he is hopeful of curing when he can secure the part he needs which he hopes to get today. Our street is short but unnavigable with the tiniest amount of snow and last week Tesco cancelled our online shop and I am not taking bets on them not cancelling the new order which is due tonight. Jonathan with amazing foresight I think had previously ordered extra supplies of my favourite wine so we have no bread but lots and lots and lots .......
The weather forecast is rain for around here - but maybe they are wrong ;-))
Enjoy your weekend!!
View large on black if you have a moment!
We were during a week in the Swiss Alps to hike. Well, and the weather forecast predicted sunny weather for the entire week. Oh how cool this is he he he. And when we finally arrived at our house in the Alps the sun was shining and laughing ;-) I decided on the same day to make a walk because I simply had to go out. But I should have known it better. In the mountains, the weather can change at any time. And in fact, in the middle of a forest suddenly the weather really changed. Drizzling rain, fog, snow and a very bad visibility? What? … Damn, not again bad weather! My God, and so it remained throughout the entire week. When I read the weather forecast again there were suddenly only black clouds and snowflakes instead of small suns marked as pictographs. I now believe that the weather god is performing an experiment with me just to driving me crazy slowly he he he. Well, I always take what I get and made the best of this situation, and in addition my dog loves this weather … it is always too hot for him in his fur he he he. When I came to this place, the atmosphere was really very mystical and beautiful and I could not resist this temptation and made this photo here. I hope you like it.
Thank you for your time and interest in my photos, your visit is most appreciated :-)

Tofu watches the weather forecast on TV with me and knows that we will probably get quite a lot of rain tomorrow. As he hates to get wet, he prefers to be prepared and already hides under a deckchair today, just in case ...
According to the weather forecast, and I use their words, there 'may be, might be and possibly be' thunder storms across West Wales tomorrow. Looking at tonight's sunset I wouldn't be surprised!
The sky was full of Swallows and the air was hot and heavy as if thunder wasn't far away.

The weather forecast was for showers and sunshine all day which for me makes great conditions to be in the Lakes .
If you look to the top of the pikes you can see the hikers doing what they love and the autumnal colours are starting to show now.
You just gotta love The Lake District.
The weather forecast said it would be a sunny day. It was wall to wall sunshine when I left Nottingham, but it wasn't here. The most dismal conditions for photography, really overcast and dull, then it started raining as well. I've had to wait 12 days to be well enough to go back after my Hawfinch fiasco on 18/12 (OK I got the Fieldfare shots as a great compensation), thanks to my M.E. which has had me housebound all through Christmas. Hopefully it'll be better weather tomorrow! :-)
Still, although I've seen Hawfinches on 3 occasions previously at a distance, this is the first time I've been close enough to get some clear photos, so that is very pleasing.
Once again, thanks for viewing and thank you for the faves and comments.
This past Tuesday mornings weather forecast looked to be the best of the week as it showed a partial cloud cover at sunrise…the perfect recipe for the blessing of an amazing sunrise. However, the cloud cover prediction could not have been more wrong as the sun rose behind a full cover of heavy clouds and fog. The word disappointment after the early alarm and hour drive doesn’t cover it.
When I arrived home later that afternoon and downloaded the photos of the day, I was shocked to see that I had only taken 12. Twelve photos from a place that I have taken 400+ in a single morning…that is how bad the lighting and the sparsity of critters was!
When everything is frozen, finding any open water is usually where the animals will be. In this case I was blessed with an encounter with this River otter as it came out for a breather. I was able to approach the hole and set up while it was submerged below the ice. It had no idea that I was there, but noticed me instantly once surfaced. It raised its head several times taking in deep loud breaths through its nose, smelling the air to help determine what I was.
Since there was so little light, this shot was taken at 1/15 (most of my photos are taken at 1/1000 – 1/2500) of a second…an extremely slow shutter speed shooting big glass as any movement by either of us would blur the shot. In this case I got lucky. I took 10 of the days 12 photos of the two otters and then backed away slowly as my heart truly goes out to those who’s survival depends on an ability to get under water in winter to feed.
The weather forecast over the past week was good so we decided to head back to the New Forest for a few days.
Don't be alarmed by the fire, it's actually a practice of controlled burning which takes place in the New Forest between November and March. The burning encourages new growth which is beneficial to a variety of flora and fauna and also helps reduce the risk of wildfires in the summer months. I had a longish lens on (technical term 😉) so wasn't too close to the ponies or the fire but another group of people decided to walk closer. The ponies who generally ignore people came up to them and were trying to nudge them away from the fire. I can't say that was 100% what happened but it definitely seemed to be the case!
Many thanks for all the kind comments and faves on my images. Have a great weekend everyone.
Checked the weather forecast last night and knew sunrise coincided with low tide. It looked promising so I set the alarm for 05:00.
Quick coffee and out of the door for 05:30 and the ride up the Wirral to Rock Ferry. I've not been for a long ride this lockdown other than to Chester and went the back route taking in Eastham, Port Sunlight, River Park and finally Rock Ferry. As it began to get light I could see the cloud was a dappled pattern with a sliver of clear sky beneath that was beginning to light up with colour. The slipway is aptly named so I walked down what can loosely be described as a beach.
I didn't see anyone except for a man who was paddling a kayak/canoe on an eerily calm River Mersey. He disappeared in the direction of Liverpool, past Tranmere oil terminal hugging the Wirral side of the river. No idea where he went and I didn't see him return in the hour or so I spent here.
When I got home I did a search for why these type of clouds form. You learn something new everyday.
Wiki entry.....
A mackerel sky is a common term for clouds made up of rows of cirrocumulus or altocumulus clouds displaying an undulating, rippling pattern similar in appearance to fish scales; this is caused by high altitude atmospheric waves.
Taken about 10 minutes before sunrise.
After many varied weather forecasts, we ended up with about 4 plus inches Thursday night, some wind and even rain prior to the snow. No real blizzard conditions because the snow was quite wet . . .
This is near a large aerated pond where we still have Canadian Geese that like it here too much . . . no migration plans at the moment!

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...
The weather forecast was not very good and I considered setting the alarm clock at all that morning. All the more I was happy about this great mystical mood. The scenery was magnificent.
Die Wetterprognosen waren nicht sehr gut und ich überlegte mir überhaupt den Wecker zu stellen an diesem Morgen. Umso mehr freute ich mich über diese tolle mystische Stimmung.

Weather forecast on a knife blade. On a Damascus steel knife blade, to be precise. Not what I initially had in mind, but that so often is the case when it's one of the "MM themes of the 1000 possibilities". Usually, for such a wide theme, I only have a few vague ideas what I could do for it, and the end result is pretty much a random surprise of what looks, firstly, most interesting through the macro lens, and, secondly, best as a photo, of course. Also, what is easy when it's not asked for - such as finding interesting patterns - becomes nearly impossible when it's required: patterns positively seemed to escape me as I went looking for them around the apartment ;-) And when I saw the knife in the kitchen (I hadn't even considered it as a possibility) I just thought "OK, that's probably very boring, but I'll give it a try." As for the "macro lens surprise", that was that not only did the banding typical for Damascus steel looked like waves (often an intended effect, but I only learned about that when I did my research on Damascus steel for the description and the tags), but those scratches from sharpening the knife that you can see in the upper part of the image also looked like heavy rain. And here it was, unfolding before my eyes: the high seas tempest.
The setup for the photo was as simple as it gets: I simply propped the knife, sharp side of the blade up, against a jar of sugar (my photo studio also doubles as breakfast and dinner table), both of it sitting on top of a heavy book to give it the same height as my camera on its small table top tripod, positioned one LED lamp (warm light) at the side of the table and grabbed my LED torch (cold light) to illuminate the blade from above (which also added the ever so slight 3D effect on the upper part of the blade), enabled the in-camera focus-stacking function, and hit the shutter button. I shot three focus stacking sequences of different parts of the knife of which this looked best.
Processing steps: The cold / warm light effect is something I get quite often when I use different light sources as above mentioned. It even works with one artificial light source (provided it gives warm light) and daylight from the window. Here I liked the split tone effect very much because I think it adds more depth to image. I wish I could have achieved the vivid colours you see here entirely by the use of light and the use of a colour filter (warm-cold or a combination of a cooling and a warming filter), but I've only recently considered to buy a few photo filters to improve my landscape photography, and since a good filter is expensive, I think I will buy one or two more versatile filters first before checking out the more exotic colour filters. So the colour enhancement here was done in Lightroom, where I tweaked the saturation and luminance of the blue, yellow and orange tones, and then in Nik's Color Efex, where, as final touch, I applied a Bi-color filter. I hope that these processing steps are deemed OK according to the new MM rules regarding the editing of an MM shot. I also did some sharpening and de-noising in Topaz Sharpen AI ("Focus" yielded the best result).
HMM, Everyone, and have a beautiful and safe week ahead!
In view of the weather forecast for a change in our weather the next day I shot out on Tuesday evening for a wander along the banks of the River Adur at Shoreham. High tide was at the same time as the sunset . Lancing college is reflected nicely in the river at full tide.
Two manual exposures blended together as the contrast was so great .
After a series of bogus weather forecasts predicting mist and fog, I decided to ignore Central Weather and use the less vague approaches of using my intuition and looking out of the window after I had woken up! When the sky is clear and my car windscreen has a layer of condensation on it, I feel that I do not need to rely on the smooth talking Des to tell me about mist that is not going to happen! Bless him! How can anyone really predict the weather. Who could have predicted Ajax vs Tottenham in the Champions League semi final?
The weather forecast said there would be some over night snow then a crisp clear morning...it was wrong! I still managed to take some shots. I liked the way these rocks almost mirror the shape of the hills in the background.
Yes, it is true, the weather forecast said so. From 4-5 degrees for weeks to 15 on Wednesday and 20 on Thursday
The weather forecast almost prevented us from going but we took the chance and were rewarded with this. Colorado, USA
The weather forecast predicted today to be sunny so I decided to get up early and see the sun rise. This was taken about a quarter past five. *yawn*
The weather forecast for Colorado is a bit frightening, though not as bad as states east of here. Winter ain’t over yet!
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! ❤️❤️❤️
Weather forecast looking good and a photographiing in the Peak District book to inspire - I got up early, drove 2 hours to Castleton and took advantage of a glorious morning/sunrise.... there will be more come from the trip. This simple scene shows layers of mist blending into the hills and beyond into the sky. The Castleton cement works in the distance in silhouette. The bird has not been placed (it is as scene). Minimal tonal edits.
The weather forecast was right: this blue sky did only last for one day... I hope this painter finished his work, before it turned into grey again.
With the weather forecast I checked looking like there would be a good chance of some nice sunset and sunrise shots in Skye, I headed down the long path to Sgurr na Stri. Like so often is the case with Skye, the weather report proved to be a teaser. The clouds closed in just as I got to the summit, it started raining, and there was no visible sunrise. I did manage a few glimpses of the last gasps of sunset as the clouds rolled across though. Turned out quite dramatic!
The weather forecast had stated 18% cloud cover so I was unsure if the conditions would be good. Upon arrival there was plenty of cloud around, prob too much. This was taken well after sunrise when the sun was breaking through some of the heavy clouds
The weather forecast was for wall to wall sunshine until late morning and sunny periods thereafter for this part of the Peak District. Unfortunately, the BBC and Met. Office got it badly wrong and sunny skies in Nottingham gave way to grey cloud and overcast, long before I got to Bakewell and so it remained.
The weather did not deter the birders and photographers who gathered to see a flock of some 150-250 birds, split into smaller groups, trilling from the treetops and flying down to pick off the hawthorn berries by the trail, the sight and sound quite spectacular.
The poor light made photography quite challenging, as did the busy station cafe area, as the trail (the old rail line) was also very popular with walkers, cyclists and day trippers.
Thank you for your faves ands comments - appreciated
The weather forecast was 90% rain today, but fortunately just 10% and we were able to canoe this amazing area with enough water to let us through. Hopefully back in it again tomorrow with even better conditions.
The weather forecast suggested there could be mist and fog. But I thought the forecast wind was too strong for either. Crossing low over Tittesworth reservoir in the dark I could see there would be no low lying mist and the fog was not fog at all, but low cloud when I got up to The Roaches. I had wanted to photograph some particular trees in the mist/fog but I found almost all of the trees had been blown over and lay in a broken tangle. It was indeed windy and pretty cold and I was relieved when a little light showed. But the sun was obscured by a mass of thick cloud so that the sun was just a pale spot through the grey, but it was rushing past with the strong wind blowing it along. And then it started to break out and I hastily set up my tripod. But it wavered and vibrated in the gusts, and the odd spit of rain landed on the lens. Testing times, and this was the best I got before I decided to go and catch some trees on the skyline further away.
The weather forecast had been for a sunny day for my first visit to the British Museum. I was hoping for a blue sky and some interesting shadows to be cast by the glass roof. Alas it was not to be although even on a dull day there were still some nice muted colours to be seen. The weather hasn’t been on my side just recently and I’m starting to develop a genuine fondness for “muted” (EM121499)
