Had to make sure SWMBOd was up by 5:30 so I was out slightly early than usual.

Ooof! It's not the weather for early getups

I was hoping that we got a good sunrise after the storm but alas too much cloud.

I s'pose we cant complain at this time of year.

I think we can complain about the number of named storms weve had lately.

It's getting a bit meaningless really, naming them all.

It is.   But at least if give us titles for the posts.

Something for the newshounds to bleat about on slow news days, too

Remarkable shot DA.    That roundabout provided a great target of opportunity for a long exposure shot.  

Nice and not exposited very long, just a bit of a smudge.

Cheers DT.  It was good to get it up.

Just enough to show the cars moving and not blurring the roundabout.

No doubt the storms and accompanying winds have slowed down your flying opportunities.

Wild here again this morning,   made walking into the wind quite hard work.

Sad that even wit the storm gone you are still having high winds.  I woke up here this morning to the sound of drip, drip, drip.  Yeah, raining again.

Dry here but so grey and cloud coverage is hiding the sun.

Very cloudy here today but at least it isn't raining, for a change.  High temp for the day is supposed to be 28C so I'll probably go for a dive this afternoon.

This morning it was blowing 40mph winds and raining,  luckily I got out between showers but walking up one hill was like wading in treacle.

No doubt that was quite the cardio work out.  You know it's really windy when you have to lean forward into the wind to move forward.

that's a great shot. it would have been cool to seen a video in hyper-lapse or a slow shutter speed shot i bet to see the car head lights bend around the loop
nice capture

It was and I really wasnt in the mood for it.

Great minds , That is so cool

No doubt it wasn't a fun outing having to fight the winds.

And for once the traffic was moving.

It wasnt,  but those 10000 steps dont come easily some days.

Speaking of steps, yesterday was a banner day for me.  I was walking a lot around the property and at bedtime last night I noticed I had 22,115 steps.  I knew I had walked a lot but never figured it would be that much.

Wow you beat me,   I only hit 15k but that was probably because I spent so much time at the MIL fixing things.

I'm thinking that was the first and last time I'll ever beat your daily step count.  You are the Master when it comes to getting steps.

Its all very weather dependant for me,   I'll push myself to meet the 10k if the weather is bad but I wont push on more unless its enjoyable.

In the summertime here it gets really tough to get steps in unless you get out really early in the morning or very late in the evening.  The heat and sun's rays can wilt you down quickly.

I can imagine,    your winter is about the same as our summer.    Yesterday was another bad day for me,  only just cleared 11k steps.

You beat me as I only got 9,977 yesterday.    I guess I better work harder to meet my minimum goal of 10,000 daily.

Im just hitting 12k today.  No plans to push it any further as the weather is so un inspiring.  

A nice bright image

Keep at it.  I wish I had the follow through that you do.  Some days I'm just like what the heck when I should be saying to myself to get out there and walk.  Maybe I'm getting too comfortable in this retirement life.

Nice Capture. That roundabout could use a lit statue in the middle.
