heavy rainfall was our companion on the third day of our recent second stay on the Lofoten islands. I loved it for it showed a completely different scenario, which I found nothing short of mystery and enchantment.
Heavy rain on the famous Doubtful Sound, a beautiful fjord in Fiordland National Park / New Zealand.
It is the deepest and second longest fjord in New Zealand.
The area is extremely rainy, in neighboring Milford Sound the annual rainfall is 8000mm!
the sunshine is back on the islands, from the rocks, a couple looks at the clouds that drift away to the sea.../När regnet upphör, solen tittar fram över öarna, på klipporna står ett par och betraktar molnfronten som drar bort över havet... till höger, längre bort, ses Svartklubbens fyr/El final de la lluvia...asoma el sol, desde las rocas, una pareja observa las nubes que se alejan hacia el mar...(DSC_4334-2)
I've photographed this area many times with great water reflections. The water is long gone leaving the salt base.
The Great Salt Lake is disappearing.
While conservation efforts are underway, it will take a while to see results. The good news is that any substantial rainfall can give me a thin layer of water for future reflections.
70-80% of Utah's water is for agriculture....its tough to grow crops in a desert.
The Great Salt Lake - GPS is not the exact spot of the shot.
The rainfalls of the last few days brought me fog at the beginning of October 2020 and a nice morning mood for a short time.
Wish you all a nice autumn weekend!
Die Regenfälle der letzten Tage bescherte mir zu Beginn des Oktober 2020 Nebel und dazu für kurze Zeit eine schöne Morgenstimmung.
Wünsche euch allen ein schönes Herbstwochenende!
Danke für deinen Besuch! Thanks for visiting!

This capture is the second in this series, after the heavy rainfall the rivers are full and offering some great scenes to shoot!
The shit I do for a picture....
Well since I'm soaking wet, I'd like to say that I've been pretty inactive and haven't had any Lego motivation at all. I've been focusing on other things. I'll try to post a scene tomorrow for D-Day but I probably won't post much, maybe once a week? Idk
A rainforest is an area of tall, mostly evergreen trees and a high amount of rainfall. Rainforests are Earth’s oldest living ecosystems, with some surviving in their present form for at least 70 million years. They are incredibly diverse and complex, home to more than half of the world’s plant and animal species—even though they cover just 6% of Earth’s surface. This makes rainforests astoundingly dense with flora and fauna. Rainforests’ rich biodiversity is incredibly important to our well-being and the well-being of our planet.
These fields are water logged after the rainfall over he last few days.
Information about the by-pass a few years ago.
The bypass will cross the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland narrow guage railway twice but officials are confident the work will have little impact on their business.
Anyone who objects to the route has until July 4 to lodge their objection and reasons.
Coun Selwyn Griffiths, who represents the Porthmadog West ward on Gwynedd Council, said: “This is good news for Porthmadog and I hope there will be no delays to enable the scheme to be completed as soon as possible.
“Porthmadog clearly suffers from increasing traffic congestion.
“Since the Cob was widened Porthmadog has become busy with traffic year-round. Reducing through traffic can only benefit the town.”
Porthmadog East ward councillor Ieuan Roberts said he is looking forward to the bypass being completed.
“It will be of great benefit to the town. The congestion of today will become a thing of the past and people will be able to come into town, park and shop much more easily.”
Businessman Louis Naudi of the Royal Sportsman Hotel, Porthmadog said: “I think anything which helps to alleviate the terrible traffic is to be welcomed but we will still have people coming in from the Cob. It is still very busy.
New today:
This image is published today in the French newspaper "20 minutes" n°3301 of 14 June 2018.
New this week:
Publication in the French magazine "Nat'Images" n° 50 of my photo Kiss me.
Two photos, this one (under the storm) and my previous one a few days ago with a very different framing, you will tell me your favorite. Impressive storms this month in France.

Deux photos, celle-ci (sous l'orage) ainsi que ma précédente il y a quelques jours avec un cadrage très différent, vous me direz votre préférée. Orages impressionnants ce mois-ci en Charente comme un peu partout en France.
Thank you so much for your kind words, faves and invitations to groups! I really appreciate each of them !!!

These last days I visited Savoie, which is part of France.
Most of the day there was intense rainfall.
[Enlarge to look around.]
At 90 metres the St Columba Falls at Pyengana is one of Tasmania's highest. Because the flow from the South George River varies according to rainfall that feeds the river system, the falls were not exactly in their finest glory. Tasmania's north-east had above average rainfall during Winter and Spring, but very little precipitation in the catchment area since December. So although the Pyengana Valley has had good local rain (as seen by the green countryside) the river itself is running low.
Unfortunately the light also turned sour on us during the walk through the forest. The Falls are not dark because they are fully exposed, but the light is one that all photographers hate. Just a dull white light from the cloud cover. No real light and shade to bring out the contrasts.

20150709_214620_DSC3932 (2) Where there is plenty of rainfall, ancestors of this ancient village hand carved the land into rice fields. Tremendous efforts there... LongJi village on the far end is located in GuanXi province in China.
True, I'm around the Dead Sea for the second time. What is the probability of getting heavy rains in this area? I will try to return to the beach tomorrow for the third time, but I will have to give up the Eastern Desert Castles, bordering Iraq.
***
Rainfall is scarcely 100 mm (4 in) per year in the northern part of the Dead Sea and barely 50 mm (2 in) in the southern part. The Dead Sea zone's aridity is due to the rainshadow effect of the Judaean Mountains. The highlands east of the Dead Sea receive more rainfall than the Dead Sea itself.
Some heavy rain against a backdrop of distant trees - with a little added saturation ; )
Happy Slider Sunday!
Heavy rainfall required terraces and stone chips to drain rain water and prevent mudslides, landslides, erosion, and flooding. Terraces were layered with stone chips, sand, dirt, and topsoil, to absorb water and prevent it from running down the mountain. Similar layering protected the large city center from flooding. Multiple canals and reserves throughout the city provided water that could be supplied to the terraces for irrigation and to prevent erosion and flooding.
Rainfall creates circles in the placid Kanawha River as NS train U91 heads to Elmore at Deepwater, WVa.
This little wild flower clings on to the water after a rainfall, whilst all the grass and leaves around have dried.
More fields in the estuary waterlogged.
Beautiful blue skies and reflections.
Lots of sheep today grazing on the waterlogged fields.
[ Portmeirion in the distance ] A nice fresh day for being in the fresh clean air of Snowdona.
Talsarnau or Talsamau is a village and community in the Ardudwy area of Gwynedd in Wales. Its population was 525 in 2001, and had increased to 550 at the 2011 Census. The village of Talsarnau is situated on the A496 coastal road between Maentwrog and Harlech, close to the hamlets of Eisingrug and Llandecwyn.
This is a view of walking in the estuary.
You can walk on a rugged path or walk over the grass verges.
The soil will of come away due to the heavy rainfall and tides every day.
If you want to walk over to Portmeirion you can, but have to go up and down these banks either
In the mud or water!!!
