Thanks for the link, David!

Great idea for a challenge!  I'll start thinking ... ... ...

"If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough."  ...  Robert Capa

Let's start with last Febuary's Snow

I'll check and see if there is any weather around here then get a shot up..: )

Yeah ... the weather man says we're in for ten dry sunny days in a row.  Some sort of record here, I imagine.  What's up with THAT??  You'd think in Seattle I could at least show you some rain!

"If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough."  ...  Robert Capa

That is the great simplicity here, every one of us has some weather. 

 ecurb - The Devil

We have all your weather down here, Tara! Thunderstorms everyday for the past two weeks and some of the best shots and I didn't have my camera with me! :(
So I can pretty much just  walk outside and get a shot anytime... LOL :P
......well maybe later, I'm still in my pjs!!! LOL :)

Well get out there, PJS or no PJS I don't mind and start shooting

You don't need rain Tara, Even sunshine is weather.

Great idea David!!! Our weather is cold but without snow... That is going to be a challenge to photograph. I will put my creative cap on and see what I can come up with!

It depends on whether you were expecting GOOD Weather. If not,  then the challenge should have been named BAD Weather.

To me the word "weather" conjures up the experience, the excitement,  no matter whether it is good or bad weather. Good point Art. You guys inspire me.

Excellent David, this forum rocks!

Here's a quick trio of today's weather here in my neck of the "desert". Top to bottom - front yard view, side yard, back yard. We always get some pretty awesome thunderheads by late afternoon. Yesterday was a loud one!!! Whoo Hoo!!!

Great posts so far guys

Tried to take some pictures of sunny weather , its very difficult to show it as weather, has it worked.

Very much so,  Very good.

It's good to see your weather.   

 

  WARNING, PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL DON'T POINT YOUR CAMERA DIRECTLY AT THE SUN,   IT COULD  BLIND YOU AND IT CAN DAMAGE YOUR CAMERA

Lots of leaves and branches in the way to knock out the suns power, thanks for your concern.  

here is my 1 1/2 cents. I took this picture this morning

Great Richard, we can always reley on you to give us a great sky!

We've been enjoying some blue-sky weather, well, up until today which is grey and dull. This was taken on Monday at Conwy Marina, North Wales

Super to see Carl, you don't get weather very often like this in North Wales

 ecurb - The Devil

You're telling me! lol. It's been quite nice here for a while with something of a mini heatwave recently and not a cloud in the sky. Looks like it's back to the norm now though

Hey neat idea, I must keep this in mind tomorrow is my day off, and I have planned a shoot, will keep a vigilant eye :)

It takes one tree to make a billion matchsticks, but one match to burn a billion trees

i shot this one two days ago, so i think it qualifies as a sunny June shot ;D).  Taken at one o'clock, under someone else's fence rose climber. Ciao, Sandra

It certainly does

Whether weather is just weather or whether its all weather, here's a weather shot from me, I like how the sun reflected in the building.

Now that's weather.

It will have to be sunshine then we seem to be cooking then, but then this is england it could be 10 deg below tomorrow.

Bad weather coming.

Bad weather has come

Here is my first image.  Sorry I have not taken any this month yet, but here is one taken on Mother's Day.  Rain had been going on for days.  The river was totally flooded.  The lines (if you can see them) going down the stairs shows you where the stairs end (about 25 stairs down) and the line going horizontally shows where the sand and water usually meet up.  If you are looking at eye level and look down at about a 30 to 35 degree angle from the top step, that is where the river is usually.  Hopefully that made sense.  Will try and do some pics later in the month.  Great viewing so far!

Hope the river has stopped rising it looks close to the top.

I think that was the peak of the flood waters.  A week later it actually lower than usual.  It was a very intimidating sight.

Hi all Firstly let me say how I have enjoyed looking at all your weather images now. They are all superb!

Well, I had a stern talking to by one of the co-ords and decided that before I get a hiding, I better place something! This image was taken about 30 minutes ago! It is one of my roses at the end of it's glory against this morning's winter sky!

Hugs, Carin xx

Two great Pics, both show off the clouds well.

The weather in the Cape is very much dealing with seasonal rains in winter.  Hence in Cape Town we have lots of mist and rain.  Cloud cover is usually a low blanket of grey, so this late afternoon cloud was appealing.

Cheers,
Clive

Oooe, that is rather unusual cloud formation for Cape Town Clive! Well captured there! :)

What a wonderful variety of weather shots, everybody!  Gosh ... I've been looking every day, but haven't said anything for a while.  (I've been a bad girl - don' t tell on me!)    LOVE the thunder clouds and the rain shots from different parts of the world.  The winter weather in SA looks like summer weather here!  Thanks, Carin and Clive!

I don't know what's up with that coord, Carin, giving you gief!      I mean ... he hasn't been around here for days and days, and has only posted ONE pic in this thread.    That's pretty mean ... is he nie 'n kerkmens nie?

As we are also suppose to take a shot of the weather specially for this thread, i have taken this from my garden. Here you can se what weather we have right now.

Rain Rain and even MORE Rain!

Nice shot , I love canal boats, were was it taken.

A shot down the field , the weather could not make up its mind , drown us or bake us.

Greatrainy shots David and some more marvelous weather shots Katraz!!!

Maybe he needs some talking to!!!

Carin, I think it's time we did a little double-team run.  Time to gang up on the staff!  Between the two of us, we should be able to get something close to 24-hour coverage.  M. Kerkmens won't stand a chance!

Stay warm ( those of you in the Southern Hemisphere!),

Possibly the last for a while as things are getting a bit hectic for the next week. Reflections in a puddle in the nursery car park.

great stuff here, guess i better get busy!!

Oh gosh David, why do I get that eerie feeling it's not YOU being targeted this time! :ohmy: I better re-read and see what exactly was the offense here...

Great uploads and I am serious, if I can just mention a few on the last page, Clive, Carin, Katraz, David, Helle and the fear inspiring one of Beth!

I slipped up on an ideal opportunity to capture cold rainy weather yesterday. Oh well, I better keep looking and you too Marilyn!

I will be back! :mad:

This cold front was the forerunner of our uncommonly cold, wet and rainy weather  and was even evident in Carin's upload. Very unlike the usual weather Clive has in Cape Town.

Well if this is teaming up, bring it on you two collaborators! Let's see yours...  :laugh:

Hey Ronnie, what a sweet boy you have been! Great avatar my friend.

Before I totally dive into complete and utter nonsense, I want to make sure I don't forget to tell you how impressed I am with the shots that have been posted here!  Awesome work, everybody!  LOVE the rain, David ... and Clive's shots of the Cape are fabulous! 

Who would have ever guess that Auntie Seattle wouldn't be able to cough up a current picture of rain???  LOL!  I'm hoping, but the five-day says there's no rain in sight. 

..........

All right ... you two boys better behave yourselves!  (Ummm ... that would be Piet & RJ, just so there's no confusion about who's in trouble here!)  You're no match for Carin and I when we get going.    Best be careful, or we'll go all gatvol on you!   

Dis goed om jou te sien, Piet  ... it's about time you showed up ... ek is trots op jou ... a current pic and everything!    (And gosh ... it's gorgeous!!)

And you, Ronnie, you're just encouraging him!      Time for another pic from you, methinks!

My goodness Marilyn that is simpy gorgeous!  I have never seen that kind of sunset before.  Amazing shot.  Piet your sunset is gorgeous too!  Love the colors.

AuntieK - You have to keep your eyes out for those Weesley Twins (Ronnie and Piet)!  They are clever young men you know. 

Fabulous image so far!

First things first - Clive - stunning images of the typical wet and miserable Cape winter weather. However, as Piet mentioned, we have similar rainy and cold weather up north for the last couple of days!!!

Piet - lovely image of the cold front approuching.

Marilyn - glorious image of the sun in Hawaii - wow!!!

Tara - He is brave eh???? He wouldn't know what hit him!!! Ons sal met hom mors!!!! Girlpower!!!

Ronnie - careful, you could also end up in trouble... side with Piet and bear the consequinces!! The two anties will roll you too!!! LOL...

Great shots of weather everyone!

I've been taken up with other stuff lately and had my first chance this AM to take a "weather" shot. And catch up on what all has been posted here so far.

Hoping to get a few more shots in on this forum subject, I totally missed the last two.  : (

Anyway, keeping my fingers crossed on that (even if it does make it harder to click the camera button)

: ) 

They say a picture is worth a thousand words...

So where do they go when a photograph leaves you speechless? 

I'm certainly enjoying everyone's weather shots!  We're about to set a record here for May/June ... I think we're on our 26th straight day without rain.  I could show you another picture of sunshine, but really ... it would look about the same as the last one.

Hey everyone :-) Here's my contribution - all the leaves in my yard!!

Here's my entry; unfortunately the smudged train window ruined it a little bit. There's a better shot of the scenery (with a lightning) in my personal gallery.

Thank you Tara Its raining here in Portland today ,I see  You tied a Dry record there yesterday ,Did you wake up to some rain as well? Its to early i havent hit the news yet.

a little dark out thismorning snapped a quick one during a shower break :).

Yes Patti, it IS raining here this morning!  29 days with no precipitation was making me just a LITTLE bit crazy.    I'm hoping to be able to get a weather picture today that isn't just sun sun sun!  That's a gorgeous photograph - I hope you'll put it in your gallery!

Sacramento is known for zero weather. We have spring with blue sky and wind. We have summer with blue sky and no wind. We have fall with clouds and some wind. And we have winter with clouds and gales and rain. But here we are in spring/summer. Thankfully ,global warming gave us some clouds - no rain here but there was some that got caught in the mountains around us. I got this of the ugliest tree in downtown Sacramento.Not just my assessment - the city council has proposed cutting it down as too ugly for the park. Its huge and except for this leaning topnot that sticks up above everything else in the park, it is bare. I think its had its share of lightening and draught over the years. Oh, its also one of the oldest trees in Sacramento so no one wants to "finish it off" by cutting it down.

Finally!  After 29 days, 11 hours and 49 minutes, we actually registered some rain in Seattle!  Today Denise and I went to the Arboretum on a photography expedition, and while we were there it started to rain.  We were both so happy!  We just sat on a bench for a while and gabbed and enjoyed watching it rain.  This is a photograph I took while we were sitting there.

This is my third contribution to this thread, so now I can just sit back and enjoy everybody else's shots.  Let's see ... who has another space left to fill?  Ummm ... Ronnie?  Carin?  Piet?

Okay I got one!  Better late than never, I guess :-)  It has been flooding all day and just stopped, this is rainwater dripping into a container that filled with water.

Very good all!  You have around 9 hours left before I lock this challenge and launch the new one.
