making us feel good

A view across Morecambe Bay from the beach by the Roa Island coast road. Low sun and grey skies and the tide racing in.

The wildfire smoke is filling the valley and creating vivid sunrises.

Thursday 2 December saw a massive thunderstorm monster Hobart, Tasmania.

 

TasNetworks (the power co) estimated some 10,000 separate lighting discharges with approximately 2,000 making contact with the ground.

 

I was parked up on the eastern shore beside the Tasman Bridge as the main drama passed over the city and suburbs. This shot just after the height of the storm and shot through the windscreen of the car. A couple of minutes beforehand the opposite shore was invisible due to the rain.

 

It was only 17:00 hrs and the bridge lights came on - usually at this time of the year the light sensitive switch would trip around 20:30 hours. Take a look at the settings - provides some idea of how dark it was... What looks like cloud on the left is actually the wipers going flat out!

The sunset in the desert area close yo where I am staying in Scottsdale, Arizona. The light in the evening and morning here is something I have never seen so intense. I am melting in the heat but managed to get out at dusk and sunset to get a few pics.

Just back from my annual trip to Edisto Beach. It's always good to walk on the sand and dip my toes in the salt water. It was a bit disappointing that Botany Bay beach hasn't reopened after Hurricane Matthew passed by last October, so I had to satisfy myself with shooting sunrise from the beach in front of our house (well, I could have gone elsewhere, but rolling out of bed and hitting the predawn beach was pretty sweet. ;-) ). All in all, it could have been worse, don't you think?

The sun and the tide. Neither wait for any man. The moment is there and it is gone, never to be repeated in that exact form again.

Thursday's rather impressive thunderstorm bears down on the inner Hobart suburb of Moonah with the CBD out of frame (to the left) to follow. kynyani/Mount Wellington on the skyline.

 

TasNetworks (the power co) estimated some 10,000 separate lighting discharges with approximately 2,000 making contact with the ground.

 

Power was knocked out, roads flooded and fruit crops damaged in 90 minutes of chaos.

 

I was on the other side of the river but only managed a couple of frames with actual strikes in them. Other folk fared a bit better. My ageing reflexes cannot beat a lighting trigger! My own house is just a bit to the left of the strike but nothing to report.

 

Around 10 minutes after this frame I lost sight of the opposite shore due to rain and hail. Will post one from beside the bridge (left) at some point. Have a roll of film as well - hopefully some drama amongst those.

On this particular morning my pup and I got up very early to hike to top of hills just in case there was a nice sunrise, we weren't disappointed as for a good 30 minutes we were treated to a variety of shades and textures of morning clouds and color.

  

Early on my last morning at Edisto, I couldn't sleep and noticed some flashing outside the window. I went to the back porch, and there's a storm laying about 25 miles off the coast putting on a great light show. I've always wanted to try to capture lightning like this and I finally had a chance to.
