Derwentwater, Keswick, Lake District
The drive up was as predicted by the weather forecast - grey, dull, with periodic showers en route, but once we reached the lakes the snow covered peaks did their best to convince us we hadn't chosen the wrong destination. It was still overcast, although the sun was doing its best to lighten the greys as we parked up at Keswick's Lakeside car park. However, first priority of the day, breakfast in town and although it was now 9:30am very few eateries were open but we found one - a local shop for local people! A compulsory Cumbrian breakfast was duly ordered and consumed forthwith.
Afterwards Mrs R decided to potter about the shops and market stalls so I headed back to the car for my gear. My initial jetty shots from the first hour were bland and have already been consigned to the archives. As I'd already seen plenty of images of the submerged gate at the north end I decided to head there, but with the sky being so featureless, it was time to dust off my filters and have another crack at a few long exposures.
Now I know some of you are experts at the "wing it" method of calculating exposures, but I thought I'd play it safe and use the app from a well known filter manufacturer. What a waste of time... literally! All of the app calculated images were underexposed and so on to Plan B... wing it, and I must say a lot more fun.
This just happens to be the last image at 2 mins (I was aiming for 4 and pushing the ETTR theory) before the sun finally broke through and began dispersing the blanket cloud, although that didn't really matter... it was the flock of Canadian geese that photo bombed the shore line and put paid to any more tranquil shots.
The weather forecast was for clear skies today, so we thought we would try to see if we could spot some of the Snowy Owls which migrate from the Arctic to this area for the winter. Alas, no owls were seen, but I was able to capture some interesting scenes regardless...
Livestock in our region is not brought into shelter for the winter - almost all would never see the inside of a building until their final journey. The snow rarely gets deep, we are in a semi-arid area after all, and so the cattle can manage to find the grass beneath. In the past, there have been storms where too much snow has fallen all at once, and cattle would have starved without ranchers getting hay to them. We did see some fields where ranchers were spreading hay for the cattle, but here they seem to be doing okay at the moment.
PS Yes, that IS irrigation equipment in the background - we saw several irrigation canals on our drive.
The weather forecast the night before this shot was taken said "patchy" early morning fog. Lucky they didn't say it was going to be thick!! The auto tags came up with monochrome. It's actually colour.
It was the end of our eleventh day in Iceland, and we knew that the weather forecast for the twelfth looked pretty terrible. With only two days left after that, one of which would involve around a hundred fifty miles driving towards the west, the clock was beginning to run down on what had been a very successful trip, and one that I knew would have me working on the output for many months beyond, if not years. We’d returned to Reynisfjara for our final session before darkness arrived, and with the following day promising little more than a long time indoors in front of the television (the day of our late Queen’s funeral in fact), I wanted to make the most of things now. It was the second time today I’d stood here regarding the scene in front of me, and while the light didn’t have the colours and warmth of the previous evening when we’d arrived at nearby Vík, there were textures in the racing clouds and on the darkening sand that made me feel a long exposure shot to draw out the mood of the occasion was worth taking. Lee didn’t agree, and after muttering at length about the lack of colours in the sky, turned heel and made for the car. I told him I’d be some time. But then again I probably didn’t need to - he knows me well enough. There was business at hand in both directions along the beach as far as I was concerned and I wasn’t in a hurry to head for the warmth of the hotel just yet.
In fact I only took five shots in this direction. Or rather I took the same shot five times, as I continued to scan the sky for that hint of magenta that always seemed to be planning an appearance but never quite making one. Even the faintest tinge would probably have found me making merry with the saturation sliders in the editing suite, but in retrospect I’m glad my options were reduced to simple high contrast black and white forms on the almost completely empty beach, and the possible pitfalls of colourful chaos were avoided. By now, only a few sightseers remained, and they were all a long way behind me on the other side of the beach near the stacks of Reynisdrangar. In these moments I might have been the last human alive, gazing out at this familiar yet unworldly scene, the low flat monolith, land stolen from the ocean and thrust up above the surrounding space by mysterious geological forces, its attendant collection of rocks resembling a crudely designed submarine rising above the waves to guard the southern coast. And with the five shots on the SD card, I turned the camera in the opposite direction and pointed it at Reynisdrangar’s mighty sea stacks. It was getting dark by the time I was working at settings none of us particularly relish, especially with the telephoto lens. But that’s another story.
I don’t mind admitting the edit was a bit of a struggle. It took quite a lot of work before I began to love the image I was working on as I gently pushed and pulled the masks, but when it suddenly clicked and the final crop brought the scene closer to me on the big screen, the effort seemed worthwhile. Somewhere along the editing process, one of those horrible haloes had blemished the outline of the promontory and sea stacks of Dyrhólaey, and when the culprit was found among the layers, I groaned in the knowledge that a certain amount of cleaning was about to take place to banish the gremlins from the scene. And although the tiny white edges that bled from every contrasting edge were barely visible at all unless I started zooming in, I knew they were there. They had to go, whether the viewer might see them or not.
As I so often do, I asked Ali whether she thought the colour or monochrome version of events told the story better, and her view confirmed my own. Black and white it was, just as I’d envisioned when I stood behind the tripod and dragged out the six stop filter that evening. And when the finished image takes you right back to the moment and reminds you how you felt when you were there, that seems like a good thing to me.

The weather forecast was set to be ok for most of the day on Friday so I took the short trip south west to have this train here. Having failed on a couple of occasions to have some recent rail tours hauled by decent traction in this area it was good to bag these.
"What I mean is, I love winter, and when you really love something, then it loves you back, in whatever way it has to love." - John Knowles
(Except the shovelling.... I don't love the shovelling...) A couple of warm days and everyone is looking forward to Spring... except me.... I am still looking at the weather forecast and hoping for the next snowstorm. I am always happy about the time of the year where there is no guilt in coming home from work, putting pajamas on and going to bed at 8pm (maybe it's just me! Is it?) I love this time of year when I can just curl up with a book and not feel like I should be doing something (God knows I SHOULD be doing something... but NOPE, not feeling one bit guilty!) Yes, I love winter.
That was the weather forecast from our Bureau of Meterology. So taking them at face value, I got up very early and drove to North Haven Marina just before dawn hoping for some clear skies and a nice set of clear blue sunrise reflections.
Not to be - however, this was possibly just as good.
After hearing of a good weather forecast last week, rare here in UK! I took a trip down south, and when I say south, I couldn't have been any further south than Lizard Point in Cornwall. I went with the main intention of capturing astronomy targets, such as the rising Milky Way, which is quite difficult to do where I live because of the amount of light pollution in northwest UK. I ended up spending 3 nights down there, and it was perfectly clear on each.
Here is a 10 frame, 200+ degree pano featuring the gift shop & Lizard Point Lighthouse. The galactic core (Sagittarius region) is fully over the horizon, just where gift shop is. Jupiter is the bright blob on the right. The Great Rift in Cygnus starts from the top middle, then down to right. This is the huge dark dust lane that can easily be seen by the eye from a dark site, more especially when overhead in summer. I even captured the Andromeda Galaxy, above the gap in the trees to the left of the lighthouse.
I can’t believe I had the whole area to myself that morning. Often when I visit somewhere far off on a clear night I will bump into another night tog, but not on this ocassion. I didn’t feel lonely though, under all those stars.
the weather forecast said there might be a chance of rain all week, but so far the weather has been beautiful with glorify sunshine. I am still overwhelm by all feedback I got in the past week, in which 5 of my photos got explored. I trying my best to reply to all the comments and the new contacts!
Along with easter, this weekend also serve as Earth Day! so give some time this weekend
to do some cleaning and recycling!
Have a wonderful day!

It was above 5 degrees but - 3 overnight in Comox a far cry from the rest of Canada with -45 in some areas.
Just a wee bit if snow ;) From spring to winter after a few hours drive north. Sunny spells on weather forecast so they say :) Day 98/365
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
Perch Rock Lighthouse, New Brighton, Wirral
The weather forecast said... Friday, cloudy with a chance of rain and it was and it did! For Saturday, the weather forecast said... mostly cloudy with intermittent rain throughout and it was and it did!
However, Sunday - the day will start with cloud and light rain, brightening by midday and sunshine throughout the afternoon.
A quick phone call to fellow togs Eddie and a very late email to Mark on the off-chance of a meet up and plans were activated. As Eddie arrived at my house, the day started as the BBC had predicted and the clouds and rain chased us all the way down the East Lancs and M62, but in the distance a faint wisp of blue began to break through. By the time we passed through the tunnel the weather was on our side and arriving at the promenade car park... blue skies abound.
A quick glance of the car park for Mark's car... he was already there and the three of us rendezvoused under the lighthouse for a couple of hours happy shooting. No stunning sunrises or sunsets to be had this time but the chance to shoot the breeze, so to speak was worth the effort of going.
The weather forecast looked dubious, but I left in the early morning to photograph a bridge motif with a canal and beautiful tree line.
Of course in December the sun comes up almost right on the track and not on the side for a nice backlight effect which I had in mind.
Too bad, it will be before the end of winter, it will not run away.
There was also no more spectacular sunrise this morning.
I took this photo on the platform of the station in Hansbeke.
Just after midday, I decided to go out for this working. The weather forecast was for sunshine and occasional heavy showers, so I was hoping for a 'lively' sky.
It left on time, but an occasional glance at my phone suggested that it had stopped at East Midlands Parkway station. I arrived at Seaton just as a downpour intruded, and had the train run to time, photography would have been virtually impossible.
I hung around for half an hour and the rain stopped, but the train didn't move so I headed for home. Twenty five minutes later, I pulled up on my drive and saw that 5Q68 had moved for the first time in an hour and a half. It then stopped again at Loughborough, and it was another half an hour before it got going again.
The working was booked to run via Corby, but I've known many delayed trains to be diverted 'main line' via Leicester/Market Harborough - a shorter and quicker route. So, I waited until Railcam confirmed that it was still going via Corby before setting off back to Seaton.
The journey required a bit of brisk driving as I headed towards a large storm cloud, but fortunately there were no delays in the reasonably busy Friday afternoon traffic so I had a few minutes in hand.
I got out of the car just as the thunder and lightning started - one hefty fork occurred right in front of me about a mile away, closely followed by a long roll of thunder that moved across the sky providing a sonic treat!
Getting the right composition was tricky, as a large patch of sunflowers had burst into bloom since my last visit. The sky was a belter though, and was at its best as 'City of Truro' passed by 136 minutes late.
The rain became heavier halfway back to the car, amid further lightning and thunder activity which was almost overhead. Just as I slung my camera bag into the boot, the rain became torrential, and I could hardly see where I was going for the first mile or so. Five minutes later and I was back in the dry with pleasant sunshine - indeed, we hadn't had a spot of rain at home and the storm clearly headed away from Kettering.
So, one of the most exciting adventures of recent times, the photo doesn't really do justice to what I saw and heard but I hope you like it. The sky looks unreal, but I can promise you it was actually even more dramatic!

Weather forecast lol
First half of this May, it was mostly fogy here in Scarborough/ UK. Second half has been a real mix of rain, cold, sunny spells... oh, and a kitchen sink .
Spot the shy ,grumpy seagull hiding behind his mate for the pose. (in the photo

I try to carefully choose the exact timing I would go out fully equipped for an organized photo-shooting session ... I'm not particularly fond of clear skies so my best advisor is the weather forecast webpage ... I seek cloudy, low light ambient environmental conditions and it's hardly a secret anymore that I try to process my photos using low-key processing profile ...

Yes, it is April but that does not mean that we are guaranteed no more snow. I remember one year we had a major storm on April 17. So I am keeping those snow tires on and the shovel in the trunk.
With the weather forecast to be bad the next day, all signs pointed towards the same by previous evening itself.
Here, the Helena local led by MRL 355, an EMD SD45-2 is seen headed back towards Helena, MT from Townsend after finishing off the duties for the day.
The ferry Hamnavoe decided because of the weather forecast that it would not be possible to operate the scheduled 16.00 sailing from Stromness to Scrabster, so her captain decided (the same as Pentland Ferries on the other side of the Pentland Firth) to depart early to get out through Hoy Sound because it was going to be Wind against the Tide and what you see is the Sea Conditions in Hoy Sound as she heads over to Scrabster.
The return journey went from Scrabster along the North Coast of Caithness/Scotland towards Stroma (almost Gills Bay where the Pentalina ferry goes to) before then crossing over towards Orkney and Scapaflow coming back through Hoxa Sound and on up to Stromness.
There will be NO crossings from either of the 2 ferry companies on Saturday, 16.11.24, because of the sea conditions. The next expected sailings will be on Sunday afternoon, 17.11.24, weather permitting.
Recent storms have been hitting most of Scotland and causing havoc in some northern area's of the country.............but always good for a bit of outdoor photography.......Eh!!!!......or is that NO....you say.
The weather forecast is predicting snow on Sunday here at Keefer Lake ... I thought it best to try and acclimate by posting something from winter's past.
- Dymond Township, Ontario, Canada -
the weather forecast for this morning varied massively depending on which forecast you looked at so I knew I was taking a risk getting up early this morning.
The sunrise itself didn't really happen but the clouds were rattling overhead fast so I opted for a long exposure instead.
Exposure: 120s, F/10, ISO 100
The rain has begun and we have hastily removed all floaties and lightweight deck furniture, as a precaution.
The Black River, nestled in the rocky country northeast of Lake Couchiching.
A local history of the townships surrounding the Black is called The Land Between, an accurate summary of its economic geography. Certainly the land and the rivers to the south have fallen under the wheel of "progress" - the mills and cottages of the Kawarthas, the long history of canals on the Trent and the Severn. To the north, Cottage country has boomed over the lakes of Muskoka and Haliburton, lining the waterways with shacks and palaces. But the land between -the valley of the Black - has so far escaped most such developments."
Thanks for visiting, stay tuned to see if blows over.
Today is the day of the Great American Eclipse. Weather forecast: cloudy with a chance of darkness ;)
The weather forecast for Saturday evening said full sun, looking out of the window i could see wall to wall grey skies, bugger ! Nevertheless a class 52 in town required my attendance so i was determined to venture out to bag some kind of shot.
As i drove out of Teignmouth i was still undecided as to my exact spot but it was looking brighter towards Exeter. I headed towards Dawlish passing Colin heading for a shot from Dawlish station. If the sun is out this can be a good evening shot. I bi passed Cockwood having done that shot last time Champion was down. Through Starcross and took the Road to St Clements Church. Ah much better, it was quite bright with lots of broken cloud. I pulled over in the layby opposite Powderham castle . The railway passes by above head height at this spot and is only a drone shot.
Well here is the shot, a 15 minute sustained period of sunshine bathed the scene in glorious lighting as i took this shot of 1015 Western Champion working the return leg of the Mazey Day Special the 1Z53 1600 Penzance to Dorridge.
The weather forecast was not really good, but when I took a glance at the sky around 11 PM it was cloudless, so I ran outside and too a shot from the village. I am pretty happy with the result, given the boundary conditions.
The mountains on the left are the small and big Lohner, on the right are the Tschinglellochtighorn (the small peak, first one with snow), the Tierhörnli (the bigger one in the center of the bright sky area) and part of the Wildstrubel massif on the right image border.
The image is composed out of fore- and background. Both were shot with single exposures, foreground with 123s and ISO 6400 (f/5.6, because I forgot to set it back to f/2.8 after switching to "bulb" mode), the sky with 15s and ISO 12k (f/2.8). Gear was a Canon EOS R and a Canon RF 15-35mm F2.8L IS USM.
The weather forecast was for clear skies today, so we thought we would try to see if we could spot some of the Snowy Owls which migrate from the Arctic to this area for the winter. Alas, no owls were seen, but I was able to capture some interesting scenes regardless...
The weather forecast promised a sunny day, reality was very different. The whole west coast of Schleswig-Holstein was covered by an icy mist.
The image shows 628 540 running as D 1415 from Westerland to Bredstedt.
It was clear when I went out to take some astrophotos and the weather forecast was for a clear sky but when I got to my location the only part of the sky without cloud was around orion, so here it is.
Old Pack Horse bridge, Carrbridge, Cairngorms National Park
This was taken during my autumn trip to Scotland a few hours before my Bow Fiddle Rock photo. The weather forecast near where I was staying was horrendous so I went onto Meteoblue app and looked if there was any half decent weather in travel range. Luckily some of The Cairgorms National Park had some better weather and I'd seen photos of this bridge so set off to check it out. easy to find and there is a viewing platform but me being me I of course looked to get down to the waters edge.
This will be my last post before Christmas so if you are reading this I'd like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄 and stay safe. To everyone out there who is kind enough to follow me or fave my photos a sincere thanks - I appreciate it and especially those that leave comments.

One of the most iconic visitor attractions in the Cairngorms, the old packhorse bridge across the River Dulnain at Carrbridge was built in 1717. The bridge was built to allow funeral processions to access Duthil Church when the river was in spate. Because of this, the bridge was known locally as 'the coffin bridge'. All that remains is a single span, arcing high into the air across the swiftly rushing river below. The parapets were washed away by floods in 1839 leaving a slender arch that would be terrifying to cross even if it were not carefully protected from access.

Weather forecast said that it will rain in Begren. I sat home decided I didn't go out. But about 1 hour before sunset the sun was still on so I decided to run fast to the city! It was absolutely wort it!
This weeks adventure was supposed to tick one off my bucket list, it didn't quite work out that way though. All week long we have been watching the weather forecast on a number of apps, even up to a couple of hours before we departed it was indicating clear skies overnight, no moon and the galactic core rising at a sensible time seemed just perfect. Stonehenge was the target, 100% cloud cover was the result :-(

A visit to the Purbeck Heaths with Cosper Wosper and Steviethewaspwhisperer was almost cancelled due the the adverse weather forecast, but we took a chance and it paid off. Thank you both for your excellent company and above all your spotting skills!
Our local weather forecast was upgraded from a snow squall watch to a warning today. All around us the wind was howling and the sky threatening - but the squalls seemed to hold off - making it as good a time as any for a long walk to clear out the ghosts of the past week.
The mountain weather forecasters played a blinder on this day, forecasting there could be an inversion around the higher hills of North Wales,. That was despite there being high winds, normally I have only experienced inversions when the conditions were still. So I set off early, climbing up the slopes of Moel Siabod through cold, dense fog that was being blown around quite a lot, so not exactly pleasant walking conditions. It was only when I got quite close to the summit that the predictions proved correct and fleetingly I walk out through the top of the cloud. It was a real treat to see the cloud blowing around below me, swirling around in the stiff breeze. This was the sight at the summit Trig point, looking south east across a boiling sea of cloud.
