Extreme ways that help me
That help me out late at night
Extreme places I had gone
But never seen any light
Dirty basements, dirty noise
Dirty places coming through
Extreme worlds alone
Did you ever like it then
I would stand in line for this
There's always room in life for this

"Extreme ways are back again
Extreme places I didn't know
I broke everything new again
Everything that I'd owned
I threw it out the windows, came along
Extreme ways I know move apart The colors of my sea
Perfect color me
Extreme ways that help me
That help me out late at night
Extreme places I had gone
But never seen any light
Dirty basements, dirty noise
Dirty places coming through
Extreme worlds alone
Did you ever like it then
I would stand in line for this
There's always room in life for this
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart"

This thunderstorm was becoming more defined as it strengthened.
National Weather Service had a severe warning on this cell as it was slowly moving to the east northeast. As we were east of Minden Nebraska and were finally able to pull out ahead of this cell.
We paused for a few minutes to absorb the moment!

Muscovy Ducks (Cairina moschata) are one of the most distinct, ancient, and unusual waterfowl species on earth. Unlike almost all other domestic duck breeds, which are descended from the Mallard, Muscovies come from a completely separate lineage native to Central and South America.
Unique Physical Attributes
Facial Caruncles:
The most striking feature of a Muscovy is the bumpy, fleshy red skin around the eyes and bill. These function similarly to a turkey's wattle, protecting their faces and helping to dissipate heat in warm climates.
Tree-Perching Adaptations:
Muscovies are considered "perching ducks". They have uniquely strong claws on their webbed feet, allowing them to easily grip branches and roost high up in trees.
Massive Size Differences: T
hey exhibit extreme sexual dimorphism. Drakes (males) can weigh up to 15 pounds (6.8 kg) and are nearly double the size of hens (females), which typically stay around 6–8 pounds (2.7–3.6 kg).
Behavior & Environment
The "Quackless" Duck:
Muscovies are exceptionally quiet. They do not produce the classic loud quack associated with ducks. Instead, males make a low, breathy huffing or hissing noise, while females communicate with soft, melodic trills or coos.
Tail Wagging:
They display their emotions very visibly through body language. When they are happy, excited, or greeting a regular visitor, they will vigorously wag their large, flat tails like a dog.
Independent Mothers:
Female Muscovies have powerful maternal instincts and are known to be exceptional brooders. They will sit patiently through a 35-day incubation period (longer than the standard 28 days for most ducks) to hatch large clutches of 10 to 20 eggs.
Diet and Practical Value
Natural Pest Control:
Muscovies are prized by farmers and gardeners because they are voracious insect predators. They are highly effective at controlling populations of mosquitoes, flies, ticks, and grasshoppers.
Omnivorous Grazers:
Beyond bugs, they forage on grasses, seeds, roots, small fish, and reptiles. They generally spend less time swimming than other ducks, choosing to spend most of their day foraging on solid ground.
Culinary Use:
In culinary contexts, they are frequently referred to as Barbary ducks. Their meat is deeply valued for being exceptionally lean, dark red, and robustly flavored—often compared to beef or veal rather than traditional poultry

As it got later into the evening I started messing around with long shutter speeds.

Well I experienced my first hard drive failure, nerve racking to say the least. Glad I had a good backup!!!!! This image was taken last week. I think it is somewhat unique due to the extremes in the lighting of the scene..... Thanks for your comments and such, have a great week!

Extreme ways are back again
Extreme places I didn't know
I broke everything new again
Everything that I'd owned
I threw it out the windows, came along
Extreme ways I know will part
The colors of my sea
Perfect colored me
Extreme ways that help me
They help me out late at night
Extreme places I had gone
That never seen any light
Dirty basements, dirty noise
Dirty places coming through
Extreme worlds alone
Did you ever like it then?
I would stand in line for this
There's always room in life for this
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Like it always does, always does
Extreme sounds that told me
They held me down every night
I didn't have much to say
I didn't give up the light
I closed my eyes and closed myself
And closed my world and never open up to anything
That could get me at all
I had to close down everything
I had to close down my mind
Too many things could cut me
Too much can make me blind
I've seen so much in so many places
So many heartaches, so many faces
So many dirty things
You couldn't even believe
I would stand in line for this
It's always good in life for this
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby (oh baby), oh baby (oh baby)
Then it fell apart (it fell apart), it fell apart (it fell apart)
Oh baby (oh baby), oh baby (oh baby)
Like it always does (always does), always does (always does)
What is striking is the love of these elderly people who help themselves to walk in the alleys of the village, despite the motor difficulties.

Oh Yeah... Lightning Storm that evening... It came in late, and I had gear packed and ready in case a storm started to brew. Only a 30% chance but that means its gonna storm in Nebraska.
NWS had just issued a severe thunderstorm warning for Phelps & Kearney Nebraska Counties and it was moving right in my direction. I had time to get into position and wait for the show to begin! I ALWAYS have front row tickets to this type of show!

When weather shows it's extremes this storm surge barrier is created to automatically close to stop high tides from flooding the Dutch lands. During a yearly test run of one of the largest moving structures on earth I visited and offcourse took some pictures!
Don't try using this in the shower!!
For this weeks (27-Feb-2023) Macro Mondays 'Texture' theme.
