Days go by my window,
World slows down as it goes,
Goodbye to last night,
Lost my eyesight,
Can't you help me see?
Can you describe to me
All the world that you see? -Empire Of The Sun

A quick trio to The Warren, Folkestone.
Damp moody and cold.
Some lovely muted tones though. The is first image to be publish after having a full sensor and mirror box clean.
So nice not to have to clone out all the dust spots..
When I originally planned to photograph the Callanish Standing Stones I had visualised the resultant images in monochrome with strong contrast, heavy skies and deep textures. Today’s post is pretty much the embodiment of that original plan and at the time I was feeling pretty happy with the result. However, I posted the colour images first, even though they were only intended as a means to an end, and having been given so much positive feedback and kind comments on the colour editions I’m now questioning the wisdom in using the mono images.
Well it is the start of the competition season and I’m looking for images to submit into the monochrome category so today I am testing the water, so to speak, to see if these go down ok. As always, any comments or feedback would be very much appreciated.
Everything in this picture involves cement. Cement (or concrete) buildings, cement silos, cement road, cement domes, cement pillars, even crushed cement (or limestone) covering the beach where I am standing to take this picture. If you are a "cement-ophile", then this picture is for you : )
St. Mary's Cement Factory, Charlevoix, Michigan operates this complex, and the nearby limestone pit. They produce Portland Cement and related products. Cement mixed with sand, stone and water is "concrete."

Had some nice clouds today and couldn't resist, no that's not right, "had to" stop and take some pictures of Castle Crags which is just south of Dunsmuir, California and off I-5. I knew with those clouds and light I had something to work with. All processing on this was with Lightroom CC.
The following stuff is more for my own interests, but you're all welcome to look or not, believe me I won't be offended if you don't have time.
I've added a few links to other pictures of Castle Crags, one is a tighter shot using the A9 and my 70-200mm with the 1.4x converter.
Also, this shot unedited, SOOC in case you want to see the difference the processing made.
And the last one is a picture from January 2016, and not nearly as nice.
Here's the tighter shot using the A9.

It was to good to be true, but right after sunset a secondary small non severe thunderstorm started to brew just to the southwest of Kearney.
Even though I just had a spectacular afternoon of some incredible stormscapes, I was in for a treat this night. An electrified thriller, one storm that I wont soon forget.

This old tree can be found in Shobrooke Park, close to Crediton. I just about managed to get this photo before a wall of hail hit me on my way back (approaching from the right hand side). The tree seems to have lived through a lot, not just in terms of the centuries it endured but it also seems to have survived some lightning or storm damage on the top.
This one's from California's Central Valley where much of our Nation's fruit and nuts are grown. This shot was taken near Wasco after picking up a truck load of eggs from Central Valley Eggs. I have no idea if these are fruit or nut trees. As I drove I kept one eye on the road and the other on the storm clouds rolling in, looking for a "shot" along the narrow CA-56 (between I-5 and US-99). I also noticed stacks of bee hives spaced every couple of hundred yards. I pulled off the road onto the hard packed dirt. From here I was able to get the orchard, the fast moving storm clouds and the bee hives. Took several pictures, this being my favorite.
Tonight I'm back in the California Central Valley, about 60 miles North in Hanford. I'm at my delivery, but they're closed until AM tomorrow. Got a couple of hours before bed time, gonna post this and do some catching up on Flickr.
Well, that didn't go as planned, crappy internet speed last night. Made delivery at 4 AM, then drove to Tulare and the Love's truck stop. Good internet here using my Verizon Jet Pack for a WiFi hotspot connection. T-Mobile on my phone is slow here, but looking good on the Jet Pack.
Picking up nearby in a few hours, then to Laredo, Texas. Let's see if I can do some Flickr catching up in the meantime!!!
The Palatki Heritage Site is an archaeological site near Sedona, Arizona.The site’s name, “Palatki,” comes from the Hopi language, meaning “red house,” a fitting moniker given the crimson cliffs that cradle its ruins. This composition of the cliffs looked like great rolls of cloth to me.

The ride home wasn't very far due to this was more close to home than usual. Had some beautiful stormscapes captured on the way back to Kearney.

A massive, swirling supercell storm cloud looms over a flat rural landscape, casting dramatic shadows and creating a vivid contrast against the fields below. The sky is a mix of dark gray and lighter hues near the horizon, possibly indicating an approaching storm.

It was approaching 12 hours chasing locally that day. Now over 800 captures from that afternoon. I have to admit I was tired...
It didn't make a difference... if it was photographic I was bound to stay out long enough to get a few good shots of the newly developing storms to our southwest. They were firing off a ton of cloud to cloud lighting.
I was only a few blocks from home, so I deiced to stick around to end this storm chasing day in a great way.

Early June 2026
Finally a severe storm that I was interested in. Had all the right signs, the right ingredients for this cell to create some spin. You have to be patient when your in the mix.
Once I'm in the mix I usually put all the electronics away and do everything visually. It really gives me the true perspective of what I'm actually looking for. The raw development of storm structure. I got what I came for that afternoon.
Massive, dark clouds loom over a flat prairie landscape, visually viewing this approaching severe storm. Distant trees and structures emphasize the vastness of the sky.

This is PART 1
In my own opinion....One of the best things on this Planet to experience as a human being...
Sitting on the side of a supercell at sunset in Nebraska! What I was about to witness was going to be epic! True Thunderstorm Eye Candy! Tons of ambient cloud to cloud lightning! Erupting over the spacious Nebraska Skyline..
Front row tickets to the show and this was going to be a double creature feature!

July 9, 2014 - North of Minden Nebraska US
What a Day to remember...
I was just out of surgery for my left knee, I wasn't supposed to be out at all. Knee was swollen to the size of a soft ball or bigger. Wrapped & in a cast but I wasn't about to let one of the best photographic storms of the season pass me by. Mrs & Friends helped me into my truck. Gear in hand I was off!
Before I was able to get on this storm. Historically, this storm wrecked havoc on 16 counties with softball and baseball sized hail. I caught up with it just to the south of Minden Nebraska as I was traveling south. I would never get in front of it but only on the back side as it proceeded to the southeast into North Central Kansas.
From my point of view, it was one of the best photographic storm of the year in South Central Nebraska. Some incredible captures from the back side of this incredibly photogenic thunderstorm. Light & Shadow played well as the Sun peaked out at the end of this day!
