A very warm dawn @ Lower Seletar, Singapore
The structure is a Kelong-like Bridge - Kelong is a off-shore wooden platform for catching or farming fish. It is a traditional fishing method used in Malaysia, Indonesia and Philippine.
It's the end of a lovely day, having enjoyed the Autumn beauty at Four Bridges. But with Autumn, comes cooler temperatures. I'm thankful for a cozy fire to warm me up while I recall all the splendor I've experienced today.
During sunset, a cloud flew in in an amazing shape (a bird, a dragon, and maybe an angel ...)
A little understanding of the physics of cloud formation underscores the complexity of the atmosphere and sheds light on why predicting weather for more than a few days is such a challenge.
Six types of clouds you can see and how they can help you understand the weather.
1) Cumulus clouds - On a sunny day, rays warm the earth, which heats the air located directly above it. The heated air rises upward due to convection and forms cumulus clouds. These “good weather” clouds are like cotton wool. If you look at the sky filled with cumulus clouds, you can see that they have a flat bottom, located at the same level for all clouds. At this altitude, air rising from ground level cools down to the dew point. It usually doesn't rain from cumulus clouds, which means the weather will be good.
2) Cumulonimbus clouds.
Small cumulus clouds do not rain, but if they grow and grow in height, it is a sign that heavy rain is coming soon. This often happens in summer when morning cumulus clouds turn into cumulonimbus during the day. Cumulonimbus clouds often have a flat top. Air convection occurs inside such a cloud, and it gradually cools until it reaches the temperature of the surrounding atmosphere. At this moment, it loses its buoyancy and can no longer rise higher. Instead, it spreads out to the sides, forming the characteristic anvil shape.
3) Cirrus clouds form in very high layers of the atmosphere. They are smoky because they are composed entirely of ice crystals falling in the atmosphere. When cirrus clouds are carried by winds moving at different speeds, they take on a characteristic curved shape. And only at very high altitudes or at high latitudes, cirrus clouds give out rain that reaches the ground.
4) Stratus Clouds - A low-lying, continuous cloud sheet that covers the sky. Stratus clouds are formed by slowly rising air or gentle winds that cover the cold land or sea surface with moist air. Stratus clouds are thin, therefore, despite the gloomy picture, it is unlikely to rain from them, a little drizzle at most. Stratus clouds are identical to fog, so if you've ever walked in a mountainous area on a foggy day, you've been inside a cloud.
5) Lenticular clouds. Smooth and lenticular lenticular clouds form when air is blown up and over a mountain range, and as it travels over a mountain, the air descends to its previous level. At this time, it heats up and the cloud evaporates. But it can slip further, as a result of which the air rises again and forms another lenticular cloud. This can result in a chain of clouds extending far beyond the mountain range. The interaction of wind with mountains and other surface features is one of the many details that must be taken into account in computer simulations to obtain accurate weather predictions.
6) Kelvin - Helmholtz like a breaking ocean wave. When air masses at different heights move horizontally at different speeds, their state becomes unstable. The boundary between the air masses begins to ripple and form large waves, such clouds are quite rare.
The photo was taken in the city of Konakovo. Russia. On the banks of the Volga River.
It is still unseasonally warm here - we haven't even had a proper frost let alone snow, however I am lucky that, though there is plenty of rain, we haven't had the torrental rain and floods that northern England, Wales and Scotland have suffered. Many people have had their homes flooded and spent Christmas without electricity or were unable to spend Christmas at home at all.
A few of my photos, including this one, are now available as prints or printed on gifts etc. at here or licenses can be purchased here.

Little Egret - Egretta garzetta
The little egret (Egretta garzetta) is a species of small heron in the family Ardeidae. The genus name comes from the Provençal French Aigrette, egret a diminutive of Aigron, heron. The species epithet garzetta is from the Italian name for this bird, garzetta or sgarzetta.
It is a white bird with a slender black beak, long black legs and, in the western race, yellow feet. As an aquatic bird, it feeds in shallow water and on land, consuming a variety of small creatures. It breeds colonially, often with other species of water birds, making a platform nest of sticks in a tree, bush or reed bed. A clutch of bluish-green eggs is laid and incubated by both parents. The young fledge at about six weeks of age.
Its breeding distribution is in wetlands in warm temperate to tropical parts of Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia. A successful colonist, its range has gradually expanded north, with stable and self-sustaining populations now present in the United Kingdom.
It first appeared in the UK in significant numbers in 1989 and first bred in Dorset in 1996
In warmer locations, most birds are permanent residents; northern populations, including many European birds, migrate to Africa and southern Asia to over-winter there. The birds may also wander north in late summer after the breeding season, and their tendency to disperse may have assisted in the recent expansion of the bird's range. At one time common in Western Europe, it was hunted extensively in the 19th century to provide plumes for the decoration of hats and became locally extinct in northwestern Europe and scarce in the south. Around 1950, conservation laws were introduced in southern Europe to protect the species and their numbers began to increase. By the beginning of the 21st century the bird was breeding again in France, the Netherlands, Ireland and Britain. It has also begun to colonise the New World; it was first seen in Barbados in 1954 and first bred there in 1994. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the bird's global conservation status as being of least concern..
This song reminds me of autumn days, a change in the weather, hot coffee, cuddles, comfort, and warmth with those we love most. It is all the good things I wish for you (and me) this weekend.
Happy Friday all!
Stay Warm - George Taylor
When you're walking in the winter
With the snow beneath your feet
When you feel the cold and shiver
And the light streams through the trees
Put a heavy coat around you
And I'll just wish it could be me
And stay warm
If I could, I would, I'd be there
You shouldn't have to walk alone
I've been drifting through December
Don't know when I'm coming home
And my bottles almost empty
And I'm running out of ways to stay warm
And I've been dreaming of you almost every night
Then I wake up, you're not there by my side
When I come back I'll give you my love
And I hope that you've not given up
'Cause I've been trying everything
But I can only sing to stay warm
To stay warm
Taken at Winterland - Adagio Gardens
Taken on warmer days. I ventured on an aborted walk today. The temperature was -21 C, and the wind slapped my cheeks with frozen drizzles forcing a U-turn to the comfort of my study. The camera nearly got glued/welded to my palm. Keep warm, my friends.😉
I don't normally post on weekends so it must be good right?
