    Great poetic picture you painted Keelin!

    At the foot of the lighthouse there is this perpetual attempt of the powerful waters to break it.

    You are right about the lennies Michael. And thanks for the tips. I probably have to wait some time to be able to try out. The last two rare opportunities that they showed up over here, I was lucky to capture some examples.

    And nice catch you found swimming in the sky! This tasty fish must beware. There might be something that waits calmly for his prey to catch.

    Great contrast and sharpness in your pictures Michael. That’s striking because lennies don’t seem to like sharpness. At least not in this case

    Wake At The Lake and Night Waves are both stunning.  So back on the wave track….

    You are doing well with your grays Keelin.

    Yesterday lennies were present over here. It was even mentioned in the news / weather forecast with some great pictures of them. I wasn’t near the most spectacular part of it myself , but could picture some of their appearance.

    Catchy picture Keelin!

    Maybe this one is a bit moving away from the wave topic, but I throw it in….

    I agree Keelin. Eventually it could be something Utterly else.

    What a peculiar picture you posted now. I imagine an aquarium with a seahorse and a long tall and pointed not yet discovered species of a fish. I like it very much. Unless they might be something Utterly Else here is someone to join them.

    I would love to spend A Windy Day On A Peninsula. Crabs may nibble on my toes while I watch the sky…

    Great Abstract Impressionism Michael. Subtle en fresh looking.

    Very nice to read about your mesmerizing experience of the Coming Together of our so called lofty friends Keelin. The capture certainly conveys what you describe. You might describe it in your own words as ‘not especially exciting’, but I think it is a restful image in a perfect mix of simplicity and beauty.

    As to the illusion of clouds you mention the shadow on my Leaf. That shadow intrigues me as well. What figure cast this shadow from somewhere up? From below the Leaf-like cloud structure – of which the veins stretched out like fingers – seemed to be completely lying in the sun.  Clouds play tricks on our perception.  ZAP!

    Yes these cirrus streaks are very photogenic Michael. They make drawings in the sky, sometimes with electricity, sometimes ghostly. Very different from your recent impressive cumulonimbus on the gallery. Wow, a lot more cloud is that!

    Yes, surrealists and clouds, they were certainly good friends.

    The undulations on the lower half of your picture are almost touchable Michael, And then the mist of our thoughts make them unreachable on the upper half…… Very nice.
