77th Show & Tell competition - Inclement Weather

[clyne]

This week's competition topic is inclement weather. Have you ever been hoping for fantastic weather for that amazing sunrise or to record some incredible scenery - but the weather went and spoiled it all? But you changed your plans and got something interesting or dramatic anyway?

I'm currently in Guilin, China which has some of the most incredible scenery anywhere - but I can't see any of it for the low cloud, mist and rain... (still looking for that substitute photo myself)

Here are a couple of bad weather shots to start you off.

Good luck and have fun. Closing March 18th.

What happened to the sunrise? Improvised with my flash and a few flashlights:

Raining, and I'm ducking for cover, trying to keep my camera dry. Big surprize to find that the rain had added
a great purplish mood to our wonderful Star of India, as they docked her after her annual sail to turn her around.



It was such a rainy day, and we were so disappointed and tired of trying to keep our cameras dry. In the end, the inclement
weather made for some much more interesting autumn colors shots than your standard blue sky. At least I thought so.



So Cold!!! Liked the clingy clouds for a pic though, then ran inside to get warm.

The weather round here is usually quite clement, but here are two pictures taken on the Hay Plain, western New South Wales:
