One thing you’re guaranteed to have no matter where you are in the world is weather. Good or bad, it will always give you something to talk about, complain about and photograph. So here are a few weather-centric travel shots I’ve taken in the past, starting off with the ever-romantic Central Park adorned with a dusting of snow.
Staying in New York, with the mercury rising, a scorching hot sun goes down over Gotham.
Rain-splattered foliage at the Bloedel Reserve on Bainbridge Island.
Windswept beach at Coney Island. That sand was moving so fast it hurt when it hit you.
The daily Xocomil windstorm starting to kick off over Lake Atitlan in Guatemala.
I wonder whether you would like to your own version of this theme? If you would like to join in (everyone’s welcome to join in!) here’s what to do:

Nature is so powerful, so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy – your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself. – Annie Leibovitz
We may achieve climate, but weather is thrust upon us. – O. Henry
Where's my backpack? 
Weather? What’s that? Here in Ireland we don’t have weather… we only have rain! Cold rain!! 🙄
Haha, actually I think all the weather over here is fierce. It’s fierce windy, it’s fierce rainy, it’s fierce cold. And that one day a year when it’s fierce hot and the sun is splitting the stones. 🙂
One day a year? Two hours on a day it MIGHT be fierce warm(ish) …
These are beautiful! I was awe struck by the dew drops. Each picture evoked a different emotion. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Mack, I have a fascination with raindrops, I could photograph them all day, they’re so beautiful. xxx
Weather changes even in paradise:

Wonderful weather photos Alisa. I decided to show off Colorado’s blue sky and the initial build up of thunderstorms this week.

I visited St. Andrews in Scotland in February one year. I remember my sandblasted face, and it was definitely painful!
