These two giant contrasting trees on the grounds at Skylands, New Jersey, seemed the perfect pair for a Spring day blessed with both sunshine and huge storm clouds at once.
My second Convolvulus hawk-moth of the Summer. This one was in a lot better shape than the previous one that Bella found out in the yard. I rescued it out of the polytunnel, attracted in by the Nicotiana flowers no doubt. It had such a powerful grip on my hand, I put it in the hedge for safety after the photo-shoot HWW & HBW!
Agrius convolvuli a large robust species that migrates each year from southern Europe carried on southerly winds. Prior to 1990 there were only a few records, but since then it has been reported more frequently. This may be due to a greater level of recording or a temporary phase of increased abundance. Is attracted to Bindweed & Nicotiana both of which we have in our garden.
thunderheads - yep, we're very high up from sea level in Joburg, almost 2km up. that's because of the plateau we are situated on, perhaps making sights like this more regular.
caught in a blaze of afternoon light...!! from our autumn
One of the Three Sisters as seen from the A82 running through the pass of Glencoe in Scotland. Just loved the brutal ruggedness of this peak.
There's no kill like overkill!
Please no debates about the practicality of such a monster. Thank you.
Done in PMG 0.6.
EDIT: N.b.: SJ Commander asked me for my permission to use the Behemoth in the Great War as a vehicle of his, and I have granted it.
Once a sovereign of flesh,
Now a scourge of blight.
It’s crown broken,
Disfigured into horns.
Wings that dream of flight,
Now bound to the earth.
For all who cherished it
Lie silent within its bones,
Their screams masked by sorrow.

Trip out to Fort Nelson Royal Armouries in Portsmouth.
18" Railway Howitzer. It'll do damage. No doubt.
Big guy, shot by a big guy, underneath a big gun. Awesome.

Weighing in at 122,000 tons, with a draught of 27 feet and a cruising speed of 24 knots the Celebrity Equinox is certainly deserving of the title Behemoth.
However, even with her grand size she certainly isn't the biggest boat on the block. Some of the newest MegaShips come in at tonnage of 228,081 GT, almost double the weight and capacity!
There were approximately 1000 passengers on board when we were there. The newest MegaShips carry up to 5500 passengers along with 2700 crew, more people than some small towns in America or anywhere for that matter!
Yep, I know this isn't as sharp as it should be. More than likely I had the back button focus set for a single point instead of multiple points. I need to remember to do that, especially with the 50mm. Yeah, probably not.
When you discover after checking your shot on the computer that the cloud’s looking like a fiction’s dragon ‘Behemoth’, reinforced by the surrounding lightnings…
Behemoth is a beast mentioned in Job 40:15–24. Suggested identities range from a mythological creature to an elephant, hippopotamus, rhinoceros, or buffalo. Some Young Earth creationists believe it to be a description of a dinosaur. Metaphorically, the name has come to be used for any extremely large or powerful entity.
