Decided to chase a storm near Lake Mendota in Middleton, Wisconsin. Took 10 snaps and got lucky with two exposures. Scary moment but rewarding. I came home with a broken umbrella and wet shoes.
Katherine, Northern Territory. Australia. Wet season in the NT. The night was almost completely black when not illuminated by the lightening.
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.
Another season of spring storms for this old barn...will it survive the winds and rain this time around? I’ll keep you posted!

Clouds moving in over Mt. Rainier right at Sunset.
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.

Another Panama City Beach Storm. There may be storms in life, but we are not alone, God is always with us!!! Thanks for stopping by and God Bless!!
Stormy skies above the Palo Alto battlefield near Brownsville, Texas where the only battle that took place on Texas soil during the US-Mexican. At this time, Texas was only a US state for less than a year.
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.
Another "reactivated" archive shot.
And no, the photo is not taken in Macau, though the buildings in the background are already in Macau.

As our houseboat moored up for the night, and we had dinner on our covered but open sided dinning area , we were treated to the the mother of all electrical storms
Amazing and scary at the the same time
