~ Give It A Whirl ~
If I, was to expire, on a day like this
Then pay no heed at all
Returned again, my secret fire
From confusion trails
To death’s own roll call
And you know, that I don’t know what to do
But I could wait a thousand years or more
Settled in to the point where I
Don’t know what the hell I’m waiting for
It’s my time to be waiting
Locked down, chained in the hole
But when my waiting is done
I’m gonna give it a whirl
Again, try to rewire
The connections of your tired machine
Well, you know, you’ve been a liar
A good for nothing two-faced go-between
It’s my time to be waiting
Locked down, chained in the hole
But when my waiting is done

~ A BIT OF EVERYTHING ~
Today’s photo has a bit of everything. A lovely sunset, a beach with an ocean lapping at it, cliffs and two rock stacks. The only thing missing is people, but there is irrefutable evidence that they have been here … in fact a few were in the frame and I managed to remove them with Photoshop! Those who know me know that I don’t like people in my landscapes!
I love the sun that is positioned right in the middle of the image and the starburst that my beautiful Canon EF 16-35 lenses creates when wound out to f/22. (623)
This photo is best viewed large with shares and comments welcomed!

~ SuperCell Tornado ~
A long-lived thunderstorm is a called a supercell thunderstorm. Supercells can sometimes develop two separate updrafts with opposing rotation which split storms into two supercelled tornadoes. One side of the tornado is rain free while the other side is in dense shafts of rain. They can produce heavier rainfall..
Supercells are isolated from other thunderstorms and can dominate the local climate up to 20 miles away. Supercell thunderstorms produce the most violent tornadoes. The tornadoes that are associated with supercell thunderstorms usually remain in contact with the ground for at least one hour if not more. They are very violent with winds exceeding 200 mph.
