The impending storm.  Little tiny pieces of hail are coming!

One Word Photo Challenge – Snow

I don’t like snow.   This picture of the white stuff was taken below zero.  My idea when I see snow is this….

Mexico!

One Word Photo Challenge – Foggy

Part II: Weather

If you want to share pictures of actual weather events do that! But you don’t have to. Share a photo of how rain makes you feel or what you do during a snow storm. Share an image of your sunny day supplies or your emergency weather kit. Anything goes- it just has to make sense to you!

Obscure low laying clouds. Robbing the sky of color, changing the heart of the Sun.   Even old glory dims in it’s midst.

Fog on the window hides selectively.   Stray cats seen immune to it’s power.

Darkness in place of fog.   Bright lights hold off part of the world from it fit only a brief time. Only to be lost in the fog of slumber….

OWPC-Flood and the Vernal Pond

One Word Photo Challenge this week brings us the weather phenomenon of flood…

After one of the start June’s and a bunch of rain in July,  I went to visit the local vernal pond.  It’s more of a swamp most of the year.   Spring brings it back to life as a pond,  hence Vernal Pond.  If your a snapping turtle, snake, frog, or mosquito it the equivalent of spring break.  If you’re flesh and bone, you are welcome to the party too.   There’s an entrance fee.

Normally, this time of year it’s a mud pit.   Today’s it’s about 150 feet by 250 feet.  The grass grows where the edge was the weeks ago.

But it’s not all bad. Here’s a nice visitor from The swamp.  My big book had failed to provide a name for his kind but looks similar to some spinx myths. Later properly identified by #Maesha-Ms Nightshade, as a Little Virgin Tiger Moth. In his camera shy mode, the Orange under wings and body are hidden.   Yes a bug with body image issues!

One Word Photo Challenge – Wind

South Point, Hawaii.  The continuous wind blows trees sideways.  The thirty foot tree of barely ten feet tall.   The wind turbines wail a buzz – hum mix that carries for miles.  The ocean is quarter mile distant.   Nothing stops the restless wind.  Nothing grows taker than this.

One Word Photo Challenge – Vivid

Deep Creek Lake,  Maryland.   Blue skies and your choice of color kayak.   Beach is decent for a lake.  Trees were a couple weeks from being green.   This is close to nowhere.   A good place to get away.
