Fagradalsfjall vulcano in June 2021. The image clearly shows the utter destruction that followed the eruption but fortunately this occurred in an otherwise uninhabited area. As from December 2021 the vulcano has been inactive for almost 3 months.
This is another image from our trip to Grand Lake, CO. They had terrible fires in this area last year. It's devastating; in area's there are hardly any living trees just burned trees that look like toothpicks, black toothpicks. But in this overwhelming devastation was a feeling of hope I've never seen so many bright and beautiful wild flowers...ever!! You can see in this image the bright green undergrowth and a hint of the wildflowers. I'll share more images of the flowers, of coarse ;-) We also saw several moose!!
Sorry about the no EXIF, UGH! View LG!
Fire, when it sweeps through a forest understory can be very cleansing to the ecosystem, but when it crashes through, windswept into the forest canopy, called CROWNING, it can destroy a site for generations to come.
This is Highway 89, north of Quincy, in Plumas County, site of the recent Dixie Fire. It has to date, consumed over 900,000 acres of prime, oftentimes virgin forest, both privately owned and Public.

On 20th May, 2022 a tornado passed through my home town and left many places devastated. This tree is a survivor of the tornado in a park in the city centre.
The negative is also a survivor of my stupidity - while I was inserting the film into the reel of my development tank I noticed I had left the safelight on after my last printing session. The film was heavily fogged. I doubt there are many printable negatives.

The beloved, 114 yr old landmark pier in White Rock, BC Canada was severely damaged by a windstorm that ripped through Metro Vancouver, BC Canada on December 20th.
Beautiful sailboats were all smashed to pieces and lay strewn up the shoreline. These boats were moored at the end of the pier, tucked away on a private dock and nestled behind a breakwater. The dock gave away under extreme weather forces. This particular sailboat was still attached to part of the dock. :(
The White Rock Pier is a historic landmark dating back to the 1920's and one of White Rock's finest tourist attractions boasting over 1,540 feet of boardwalk.
Each and every visit, comment and fave are most appreciated.
Thanks for your views.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
This tornado made national news... landed in Marshalltown Iowa, the devastation was terrible. My Son has been at our house since the storm hit, as he has not had power. Will be a week tomorrow, Thursday. One of the local businesses employed 900 people, was completely destroyed...Thankfully they are rebuilding. Many areas look like a bomb went off. Will be years of rebuilding..A long time just to clean up.
Thankfully no deaths, some injuries.
Many thanks for taking a look! Your visit is always appreciated.

A different facet of Hawaii: Dead tree near the Devastation Trail in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, located in the south-east of the Big Island. The area, formerly covered by rain forest, was devastated by an eruption in 1959. The misty weather fits the desolate scene perfectly.

This is the once beautiful little Sierra Mountain town of Greenville. Literally wiped off the map within about an hour's time,, by The Dixie Fire.
The inhabitants of this little hamlet are now refugees, evacuees, from a war zone.... a war with Mother Nature.
Burned section of Forest along Highway 41 on the way to Yosemite National Park, CA

The sun rises higher in the sky, illuminating the morning forest. This section was burned in a fire a few summers before I visited. New growth was beginning to appear around the tree trunks in October.
This is Bucharest. We were shocked to see many once-grand homes like this one in certain parts of the city. It was finally explained to us by a guide that a horrific earthquake shook the city in 1977. Over 1400 people were killed here, and thousands injured. Sadly, many of the buildings and churches were either torn down or never replaced. Look carefully, and you can see trees growing in what was once a beautiful home.

Die Folgen von Klimawandel und Monokulturen zeigen sich stellenweise im Harz sehr drastisch, wo - wie hier an den Hängen des Achtermanns - großflächige Waldgebiete durch Borkenkäferbefall völlig verwüstet wurden. Kein schöner Anblick und hoffentlich eine eindringliche Warnung zum Gegensteuern.

The cleared pine forest. Total destruction. When they replant, there is no ploughing, smoothing over or anything done. They just plonk the tree seedlings into the very rugged rubble left behind and they just grow away.
The copper colours are beginning to appear and the woodland floor now turned into a carpet of fallen leaves, brings to me in my eyes the ending of Autumn. I missed most of it when at its peak but caught some keepers I feel at the beginning of the Autumn cycle.
This image in question is hiding a lot of deforesting or as I call it devastation, as the lined up Logs in this scene is just a fraction of what lays around the corner.
Sad as this woodland path is one, I have photographed a lot in all seasons, and it has given me some wonderful images over the last year or so.
The telephoto lens giving a nice depth of field and some wonderful last colours of the season bringing for me my autumn cycle to a near end.
Still have a couple of fall images to post and I have post processed some from winter last year already to post up soon, so watch this space.
This is the leftovers of the tree featured in my previous photo. Last year we had huge storms which wreaked havoc on many venerable trees throughout the city. This year, so far, floods seem to dominate. Brisbane has recorded it's greatest rainfall on record. The storm that devastated SE Queensland and northern NSW is hanging over Sydney with many flood warnings.
Meanwhile, here in Melbourne it is sunny, humid and hot. Australia is a big country!
I know fire and devastation is a normal (especially in a place with volcanic activity) but this was shocking. Dixie fire area in Lassen Volcanic National Park.
Fire Island was for centuries was inhabited by Native Americans before the arrival of Europeans but no one knows for sure how long. During the 17th century as in most areas of the original thirteen colonies the natives were dealt out of their land but it wasn't until the late 18th century before there as any substantial development. During the later half of the 19th century as in many parts of the Eastern US hotels and bungalows were built for people who wanted to escape the brutal heat of New York City during the summer. The island was badly devastated during the Great Hurricane of 1938. however after the hurricane large numbers of gay men made it into a retreat and by the 1950's the island became one of the prominent gay enclaves in the country. During this period bridges to island were finally built and the western half of the island became a state park with designated beaches and bathhouses. However due to limited space only residents are allowed to drive into town and you either have to walk at least a mile from the beach areas or take the frequent ferry service during the summer months.
