The waves crashing in from the Indian Ocean were lashing against the pier that leads out to the lighthouse, I thought these two guys fishing off the rocks were chancing their luck in such rough weather, but I was pleased to see them feeding two of the many feral cats that live around the marina, poor little creatures it's horrible to think of them out when it's stormy like this.....
Then it was home and indoors just minutes before the storm broke..halleluiah I'm talking hail, thunder and lightning..the works! More of the same tomorrow and then a beautiful weekend, can't be bad oui! Happy Thursday, I hope all is well in your part of the world, take care and stay safe.....
Lovely, moody skies and great captures for the day, Grace! What a wonderful place to have lunch!! I love your rainy day shot! Still no rain in the forecast for Seattle!! for the next 10 days!!! If that's the case then we'll break all the records!!! With the wild fire season all around, it doesn't sound that good to us here in Seattle! Hope your week is going well, too! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteTja, bei Dir ist ja auch Winter, da ist immer was los...

Your last shot just reminded me of the kind of view I am going to have from my Seattle window over the next 10 months. Merde! For now, however, wonderful blue skies and sun. Incroyable! I guess winter really does happen in Australia after all... Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
ReplyDeletej'aime beaucoup la derniere photo avec la pluie
ReplyDeleteOh my, that sounds - and looks! - a truly all-out storm! Glad you managed to escape it by a hair, and still managed to pull in beautiful shots while at it! Stay safe too, till this weather blows over :)
ReplyDeleteThese are really nice Grace. Lovely set of images.
ReplyDeleteThat looks fierce! It is lovely and sunny here after lots of rain yesterday.
ReplyDeleteHey, I know that kind of weather!
ReplyDeleteWhat more can you wish for, wine, fishing and relaxing.
ReplyDeleteGreetings,
Filip
The last shot is super!
ReplyDeleteI like the first shot, but the last shot is for me the best !! Bravo, Grace.
ReplyDeleteThe last shot looks a bit familiar to me, where have a I seen that before this summer? Maybe in the Netherlands?
ReplyDeleteGreat to think of those guys feeding the feral cat Grace ... Poor little thing! one of my son-in-laws.brought a feral kitten home years ago and they have had her for over 10years but she still has that feral streak and can get quite aggressive ...maybe that's comes from tough beginnings.
ReplyDeleteLove your rain storm capture.
4th picture is my favourite!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why...))) Special one...

the last picture is so very wonderful ! Above 25C during night over here.
ReplyDeleteplease have a great day ahead.
My photo from Wednesday looks very much like this last one! But, the rain here only lasted a matter of minutes.
ReplyDeleteHi Stranger!!! I'm sorry it has taken me so long to get back. Life has been crazy. Work, photography, meetings....etc etc....and the blogging part had to take a back seat.
ReplyDeleteI like the scary weather sometimes....and it does sound exciting to me for some reason but stay safe. Poor kitties....life is tough out there so it's nice to see that people care about our furry friends:)
Between the water and the sky, there looks to be plenty of blue! And if you want your spring flowers, you've got to endure some rains. :)
ReplyDeleteAll of that weather is nasty but remember, spring is just around the corner. There is hope.
ReplyDeletePoured down rain in Birmingham when Virginia and I went out to shoot their Color Run. She stayed in the car. I went for it.
Nice shots. Did I see a wine list?
ReplyDeleteI wonder how diners would feel if in addition to watching the boats fill up with gas, they could see how much the cost is for a fill up of a large boat.
ReplyDeleteCertainly does look like wild weather over there in Perth. You must have been pleased to get home and crank the heater up.
ReplyDeleteNice day to stay indoors.
ReplyDeletea great view and I love the composition of the table, glasses and so on!
ReplyDeleteHere the weather is nice today with a beautiful sun and I think it's time to go out for walking! :)
Enjoy your day!

Love the views, but that last shot is super! I would want to be in doors with coffee, wine, or something! Stay dry and have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful place for a coffee Grace. We are basking in late summer sunshine here and the wekend too- enjoy yours!
ReplyDeleteNow that's a table with a view! I actually like storms...but looking through a window...Can't believe those fishermen...brrrr.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely blues!
ReplyDeleteQuite the contrast from one side of the pier to the other. Great last pic too Grace!
ReplyDeleteoh boy ... what a view ... i hope your fall dries up and cools down
ReplyDeleteVery cool post...love the one with the sunglasses and the one with the rain especially. I'd certainly eat at Spinnakers just for the view!
ReplyDeleteGreat composition (2nd shot) and I love the droplets shot.
