Prince William Sound is a sound of the Gulf of Alaska on the south coast of the U.S. state of Alaska. It is located on the east side of the Kenai Peninsula. Its largest port is Valdez, at the southern terminus of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System. Other settlements on the sound, which contains numerous small islands, include Cordova and Whittier plus the Alaska native villages of Chenega and Tatitlek.
James Cook entered Prince William Sound in 1778 and named it Sandwich Sound, after his patron the Earl of Sandwich. The Sound was named in 1778 to honour George III's third son Prince William Henry, then aged 13 and serving as a midshipman in the Royal Navy.
In 1793, Alexander Andreyevich Baranov founded port Voskresensk in the sound, which he called Chugach Bay. The first three-masted ship, Phoenix, was the first ship built by the Russians in America.
Most of the land surrounding Prince William Sound is part of the Chugach National Forest, the second largest national forest in the U.S. Prince William Sound is ringed by the steep and glaciated Chugach Mountains. The coastline is convoluted, with many islands and fjords, several of which contain tidewater glaciers. The principal barrier islands forming the sound are Montague Island, Hinchinbrook Island, and Hawkins Island.
This province is known for their Tulou - a traditional communal residence usually build in a circular configuration.
the clouds were amazing over our three days at Hope Bay, Ontario. I'm not sure I've ever taken so many photos of them. This is one of my favourites. Taken last night as we sat on the bay eating our supper.

Fiddling with effects on a gray afternoon after work when we are all fed and relaxing...I guess this is what is called the monsoon season around here, when piles of clouds zoom by and spit a few drops of rain on the plants, teasing everyone with unfulfilled promises of downpours.

After two days of driving through Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, and finally Minnesota, we reached the risk area; this was the Arcus cloud on the edge of the storm that raced over our heads. After this storm, we then drove to New Mexico, through South Dakota, Nebraska and Colorado.
This is my second take on this scene. I used six vertical images blended together; the Arcus cloud was practically over my head at this point, giving the cloud a more angular curve.

As the sun rose above one small bank of cloud, thick low cloud rolled in from the Peak District - leaving an ever decreasing gap in the sky for the light to burst through.
"Life is so beautiful that death has fallen in love with it, a jealous, possessive love that grabs at what it can. But life leaps over oblivion lightly, losing only a thing or two of no importance, and gloom is but the passing shadow of a cloud..."
— Yann Martel (Life of Pi)

Back to the glorious gold and blue mirror that is Otaki Beach...
Even a November sky can be beautiful. This photo was taken almost exactly a year ago at Lemberg castle ruin. The building on the left is the information center.
