First storm

Nothing like that first storm of the winter.  I love the structure and power created with a billion wet flakes.

Golden Gate Bridge

Taken with my iPhone 7 in July ’17.  The bay was in the 50 degree range on one side and over 80 on the other.  The result is the amazing fog created by the collision of temperate and humidity change.

Norton Point Shack

Edgartown Harbor Storm – iPhone Art

Taken from the harbor on my iPhone while on a sailing trip around the island. The power and size of the storm is obvious when you compare the size of the un-landed tornado in the top right third of the image with the Edgartown Lighthouse below and to the left of it (its the little white speck).

Statue of Neptune on the fountain on Piazza della Signoria in Florence, Italy. This was taken about midnight in the Piazza. It was one of those nights when everything seemed perfect – location, light, temperature and the energy in the Piazza.
