A WORD A WEEK PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEATHER
Ice, rain, snow, fog, monson, heat, drought, sleet,mist, blizzards, tornados, climate change, storms, sunshine, floods, cyclones, hurricanes, wind – weather comes in all shapes, sizes and forms and affects us all. The other thing that I think of when I say this word is weathering – the way the weather shapes and forms our environment, nature, objects and our bodies if they are exposed to the elements. This challenge is wide open – there are so many interpretations. As usual please link back to this post so others can find the challenge and don’t forget to add ‘A Word A Week Photo Challenge’ to your tags so I find entries easily for a chance to be one of the posts I reblogg each week.
Heat Wave – Phillip Island, Australia
Cool change – Autumn in Adelaide, Australia
Windy weather – good beach fishing – Australia
Black Saturday, Bush Fires burning thanks to the heat
Rain, rain and more rain – England
Fresh Weather – Sea spray – Greece
After the storm, Thailand
Hot weather – Sun Protection
Loas
Petrified Forest – Bolivia – Wind erosion
Plateno Alpino – Peru -
Weathered Door Greece.
Stormy weather – Vietnam
Sunbathers
Weathered face – Equador
High altitude and weather takes its toll on the skin
Sand sculpting by the wind – Peru
Calm Weather – Thailand
That Aussie picture is great and the complete opposite to the type of weather I’m offering. I’ve tried to show it slightly more abstractly:
http://mostlymonochrome.wordpress.com/2013/01/19/winter/
So how does this work? Do I just start a new posts with how I interpret the word ‘weather’ and post pics?
Love this word this week btw.

Hi Don, Yes just create a post as normal – then add your tags including “A Word A Week Photo Challenge” – it is helpful if you add a link back to my post – check out how others do it and then I will get a notification in my comments section that you have posted and I can then follow your link back to your post. Good luck
Done! Well, that was actually quite interesting to do. I look forward to many more!

What wonderful photos!!
thank you stephanie
Beautiful photography!
thank you Joy
Amazing shots! Love the Aussie lifeguard.
the hilarious thing is he’s looking in the wrong direction to sea is to his left
Wow! Extraordinary photos.
The sights you see! (and capture)
When I was younger I never knew the weather could be this extreme. Before, everything was calm and nice. Before, I could see the full moon, bright and beautiful. Now, it is blurry, pale and not at all beautiful. Now, where is the soothing breeze that used to caress my face? The sun which was not so hot? The cool rain without pollution that we used to play in? What happened to our world? I miss the “old world, the old universe, where people were happier. I miss the clean rivers, the air which was not polluted, the forests which were not bald, the world where all kinds of insect and animals were happy, where people were really happy. What can I do. Tell me. Thanks.
good questions – minimising our footprints is a good start
Some stunning images here, thanks for sharing so many!

ooohh lifeguard! lol you do take the most wonderful photos of places!! all are beautiful but my fave would have to be the sunbathers, the waves from Greece and autumn trees ^^
Love the umbrella and the faces. Had to smile with the Greek door. I must have hundreds of shots of Greek and other weathered doors. They are always some of my favorites.

Sue – Great job of answering YOUR challenge. I don’t know which frame I like best. You pretty much captured all various uses of the word weather in your post. Excellent set up and fantastic frames. I picked up the gauntlet and gave the WEATHER a go. Take a look at: http://thepalladiantraveler.com/2013/01/21/a-word-a-week-photo-challenge-weather/
