Somewhere on the border of straight panoramic imagery and a bit of Pano-Xtreme. The beauty of a dark, cloud-laden sky after a heavy summer rain was was too much to pass up, so I made this shot with as little "distortion" as possible. I wanted to keep the integrity of the scene, looking to warp it just a bit to give it a slightly Surreal quality.

Toruń is one of most attractive and historic towns in Poland.
It is famous for being the birthplace ( in 1474 ) of the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus whose epochal book, De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium is universally regarded as the starting point of modern astronomy.
In 1997 the old medieval quarter of Toruń comprising the Old Town ( 1233 ), the New Town ( 1264 ) and the Teutonic Knights Castle ( mid 13th c. ) was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site for having preserved almost intact its original medieval street layout. Toruń is full of Gothic monuments of architecture, all built of brick, such as the Town Hall, The Leaning Tower, numerous churches and many burgher houses around the central market square and the surrounding streets.
If you ever are in Gdańsk on the coast, I recommend driving down to Toruń - it's only 2hrs away on the motorway - the place has a great artistic atmosphere and a lively cafe scene.
In Holland the winter was very short: only 8 days with the start on Sunday and the end on the next Sunday. This is a picture of the first day: snow storm Darcy. The wind was heavy and the snow flew in horizontal lines over the country. Waterland, 2021.
Again, I would like to thank everyone for your support, views, faves and comments!
Another season of spring storms for this old barn...will it survive the winds and rain this time around? I’ll keep you posted!
The sea enchants, the sea kills, moves, frightens, even makes you laugh, sometimes, it disappears, every now and then, it disguises itself as a lake, or it builds storms, devours ships, gives riches, does not give answers, it is wise, it is sweet, it is powerful, it is unpredictable.

This is the first time I have been out with the camera since I have been home from the hospital.
This view is not very far from where I live, so the gathering storm clouds gave me enough incentive to try to get out there and capture a picture.

Severe Tropical Storm "Kammuri" was standing some 60 nautical miles south of Zhuhai. The strong ocean swell caused huge waves to crash against the seawall of the promenade on Lovers Avenue (情侣路).
What's usually a crowded place with couples strolling in the warm evening breeze was now nearly deserted. Just a few daring people were out and got wet.
And this is only a tropical storm - rest assured: when we had a genuine Typhoon it looked different and nobody would be here at all.

And no, the photo is not taken in Macau, though the buildings in the background are already in Macau.

When I visited Oban, there was a very strong gale which prevented a journey by ferry to Iona :( However, I spent a wonderful day walking in the storm and the next morning, there was a lovely calm and a rainbow :)

The curtain is about to fall.
A storm is building and soon a portion of Denali was covered.
Mt. Hunter on the left. The native name for the mountain is Begguya, meaning "Denali's Child". For perspective, they are 8 miles apart.
Denali is the third-tallest of the “Seven Summits” (the tallest peak on each continent), after Mount Everest in Asia and Mount Aconcagua in South America.
What truly sets Denali apart is its latitude which leads to some extreme weather. It rises just two hundred miles south of the Artic Circle and is the coldest and stormiest of the Seven Summits.
The other six are close enough to the equator to escape the extremes of cold, snow and wind which regularly impact Denali.
Enjoy a wonderful weekend!

Summer storms in Sydney are common, they appear out of nowhere, turn on a great light and sound show, and dump a lot of rain in a short time. I took this shot from a ferry as I sweated on reaching my destination before the deluge.
Storm survivors indeed!
These are almost ready to bloom as all the others around the yard, Daffodils are very hardy and multiply like rabbits:-)
Have not lost one yet, they must be hundreds of them.
We got lucky with the storm thank God!
