All us bus spotters know when you're waiting on the traffic lights to turn red and in that time a bus passes and you can resist a snap, that's what happened here and i'm quite pleased with it. Here we see Lothian Hybrid 17 leaving Fort Kinnaird for a service 30 to Clovenstone.

100km per hour down the road. Arms stretched out. Windows down.
Heading back to Sydney and moving towards a storm.
Fierce sky.
Gathering clouds.
Great music.
Right on the edge od the storm. One minute it's there, the next it's gone. Bernaera beach, Glenelg looking over to Eilanreach.
Brisbane had 265,000 lightning strikes & high winds last night, and 130,000 houses lost power.
These 3 images are not great,but couldn't work out how to use the lightning trigger. Should be better prepared next time.
No, we didn't lose power.
If you look close - there are people out in the water...(very silly, considering). One of the small yachts was flipped over by the wind & the mast came out.
Stiff winter winds causing large waves to roll over the north and south piers in St. Joseph Michigan, leaving a coating of ice patterns.
Basic contrast and colour corrections but otherwise, very little processing done. The clouds did actually look like that.
Interesting light effect on the first of these two photos. Taken seconds apart, the first shows the interesting almost unreal light effects of the tail end of a very bright lightning flash during a storm last night. The second shows that it was very much night time when the shots were taken! These photos are straight from the camera (canon 600D) - no retouching or adjusting at all.
The monster winter storm that brought icing to the U.S. southeast moved northward along the Eastern Seaboard and brought snow, sleet and rain from the Mid-Atlantic to New England on February 13. A new image from NOAA's GOES satellite showed clouds associated with the massive winter storm stretch from the U.S. southeast to the northeast.
Data from NOAA's GOES-East satellite taken on Feb. 13 at 1455 UTC/9:45 a.m. EST were made into an image by NASA/NOAA's GOES Project at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. The clouds and fallen snow data from NOAA's GOES-East satellite were overlaid on a true-color image of land and ocean created by data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer or MODIS instrument that flies aboard NASA's Aqua and Terra satellites.The image showed that the clouds associated with the storm were blanketing much of the U.S. East Coast.
At 3:11 a.m. EST, a surface map issued by the National Weather Service or NWS showed the storm's low pressure area was centered over eastern North Carolina. Since then, the low has continued to track north along the eastern seaboard. By 11 a.m. EST, precipitation from the storm was falling from South Carolina to Maine, according to National Weather Service radar.
By 11 a.m. EST, the Washington, D.C. region snow and sleet totals ranged from 3" in far eastern Maryland to over 18" in the northern and western suburbs in Maryland and Virginia. NWS reported that snow, sleet and rain were still falling and more snow is expected as the back side of the low moves into the region.
The New York City region remained under an NWS Winter Storm Warning until 6 a.m. on Friday, February 14 and the National Weather Service expects minor coastal impacts Thursday into Friday afternoon.
New England was also being battered by the storm. At 10:56 a.m. EST, Barnstable, Mass. on Cape Cod was experiencing rain and winds gusting to 28 mph. An NWS wind advisory is in effect for Cape Cod until 7 p.m. EST.
Further north, Portland, Maine was experiencing heavy snow with winds from the northeast at 6 mph. The National Weather Service in Gray, Maine noted "Significant snowfall is likely for much of western Maine and New Hampshire as this storm passes by. There will be a mix or changeover to sleet and freezing rain over southern and coastal sections tonight...before all areas end as a period of snow Friday (Feb. 14) morning."
On February 13 at 10 a.m. EST, NOAA's National Weather Service noted "An abundance of Atlantic moisture getting wrapped into the storm will continue to fuel widespread precipitation...which should lift through the Mid-Atlantic States and Northeast Thursday into Friday. A wide swath of heavy snow accumulations are expected with this storm...but air [moving] off the warmer ocean water should change snow over to rain along the coastal areas. Also...a narrow axis of sleet and freezing rain will be possible within the transition zone...which is expected to set up near the I-95 corridor."

GOES satellites provide the kind of continuous monitoring necessary for intensive data analysis. Geostationary describes an orbit in which a satellite is always in the same position with respect to the rotating Earth. This allows GOES to hover continuously over one position on Earth's surface, appearing stationary. As a result, GOES provide a constant vigil for the atmospheric "triggers" for severe weather conditions such as tornadoes, flash floods, hail storms and hurricanes.

Much better large on black.
Yes, there is a gratuitous number of photographs of New Brighton lighthouse here, and it's not exactly an original choice for a photographic subject, but I like them and given the amazing clouds that were above it as a thunderstorm passed of I feel that they're maybe a bit different to the usual. Just be glad I selected these few from the dozens I took!
Our first night in Grand Tetons National Park a storm came south up the mountains and showed some amazing atmosphere.
“The oceans are rising, and so is STORM.
Giant puppet, STORM at 10m tall, has eyes the colour of oyster shells, her hair thick strands of kelp and her voice the chorus of the waves.
STORM lives in the waters around Scotland, but in Oban - Scotland's Seafood Capital - she will walk into town to tell the story of the oceans in crisis and gaze down upon both the beauty and the mess strewn at her feet.”
