When it is bad weather like today....

[cyprusmax47]

....with icecold wind as well - I still try to get some good shots...always moving back to the house when raining and out when it stopped occasionally.

Early morning was already bad...


weather forecast said it will improve later in the day......


but it didn't - instead it worsened and with the temperature dropping the wind was blowing hard


but this is also Cyprus...(in Winter)


a tiny sunny area far away ....


also towards the sea very grim


bird of prey is still searching for food...


nearly all afternoon it was the same, but for a sudden a late sunshine appeared just after 4 PM


leading to lovely moods, this towards the wind farm..


and here towards Mandria and the sea


finally the last one before it went very quickly dark

I thought I can show how much snow is in the meantime up Troodos, but.... no way! All day was a huge cloud above the massif. So this was the only result I got, showing Pano Platres, 32 km away, with no snow, but higher up a little bit of the white stuff.

Stunning cloud photos, Max, thank you.

You're welcome Kay, I am glad to have spent the time that day as since then there is nothing to photograph...

Thanks Max, you're keeping me in touch with home whilst I'm in a cold, damp UK!

Just a little hint of thunder here in Polemi this morning with some quite black clouds.
But it has stopped raining at the moment

That's the nice thing in Cyprus as every view km's you have a different weather situation. I am less than 10 km away from Polemi and had a beautiful sunrise. Just came in to download more than 100 pics to my photo gallery....(Will send one or two pics when ready and after having a second cuppa...)
