Early morning spring shadows heading out of the small South Island town of Glenorchy, New Zealand towards Mount Aspiring National Park. Looming directly ahead is Mount Earnslaw (Pikirakatahi) the 15th highest in New Zealand at 2,830 metres or 9,250 feet.
Cwmorthin Quarry is a slate quarry west of the village of Tanygrisiau, north Wales. Quarrying on the site started in 1810. In 1860 it was connected to the Ffestiniog Railway. In 1900 it was acquired by the nearby Oakeley Quarry and the two were connected underground. In 1970 it closed along with Oakeley. There was small scale working in the 1980s and 1990s, the mine finally closed in 1997. LLyn Cwmorthin. 1/2
Taken on a misty morning at Whiteleaf Cross, Buckinghamshire, just adored the overhang on this majestic tree.

I think this is probably one of the best--if not THE BEST--locations for taking photographs of Mt Rainier. It was only a minute or two from my house too! Imagine that! ...but we have since moved! (recently) Same general area, but probably about 10 miles away. I've found another spot since moving that comes in a close second! I haven't actually had time (with the move) to take advantage of it, but surely I will soon!

Part of an exhibit about Anatolian, Persian, Indian, Cairene (Egyptian) and Spanish carpets. It contains many fine pieces, but I was most surprised to learn about Pleasure Tents, which are comprised of various woven elements, including airy screens.

Lenticular clouds can mean different things in different places. These lenticular clouds signal an approaching front. Heavy rain arrived within hours of taking the photo which shows the road along Lake Ohau leading into Hopkins Valley, Southern Alps, New Zealand.
Enjoy a view of the Seattle skyline on Christmas Day.
At first, the scene appeared to be fairly typical for winter, and not very dramatic. However, as the temperature rapidly continued to decline, the movement of the clouds caught my attention, but not for the reason you might expect.
The clouds not only seemed to decelerate, but they also traversed over the skyline at an oddly slow pace.
Creeping.
You can tell because I took several long exposures. This image was captured in 15 seconds. While you can see the effect of the exposure on the waters of Elliott Bay, the motion of the clouds appear to defy the length of time passing, temporarily suspended over the city.
Hovering.
Looming.

Deansgate Square in Manchester has these four incredible tower blocks. The scariest thing about them was I noticed a window being replaced in an apartment near the top of one of the towers. I felt a sudden terror at being in that room without a window!
