Adamas NemesisOne of my earlier attempts at digital art, and it is such a simple, abstract, almost silly thing...but so help me I just *love* these deep blue atmospherics.
My rendition of a planet like our Neptune as viewed from orbit, "A Storm in Blue".

Maikel de BakkerLess is more.
A quiet sunset sky, no sun in sight—just a smooth gradient shifting from deep blue into warm orange and red. In the top left, a final phase of the Moon watches over the scene. Two airplanes cross paths, their contrails forming a subtle “X” across the sky. Nothing extraordinary on its own… but together, a composition that simply feels right.
Moments like this remind me that photography isn’t always about rare subjects. Sometimes it’s about seeing alignment—light, timing, and geometry coming together for just a second.
A small scientific note: there is no true “dark side” of the Moon. The far side receives just as much sunlight as the side we see. It only appears hidden because the Moon is tidally locked to Earth. Interestingly, that far side is far more heavily cratered due to its greater exposure.
Captured with my Canon 5DS R and Sigma 24–70 Art, 47mm, f/2.8, 1/500 sec, ISO 320.
Photography, after all, is just another way of studying light and life.

BellingenNSWWanton acts of environmental destruction
The large-scale incinerating of oil wells
"Tehran’s toxic cloud: satellite images show oily fires burned for days. Residents reported headaches, eye and skin irritation and breathing difficulties as Israeli bombings blanketed Tehran with pollutants. Satellite images of Tehran show toxic fires caused by Israeli bombings on oil depots were still burning days after the strikes, which have caused fears of serious health complications for millions of residents in the Iranian capital." >>

In this area of NSW, on the 'holiday' Mid North Coast we are all to familiar with black rain, soot and toxic air pollution caused by the NSW government's Forestry Corporation. After logging and spraying with pesticides everything is incinerated and send into the atmosphere and lungs. >>

Kyle BrennanI’m just a sucker for any underwater environments in games. They always end up being some of my favorite areas.

One of my favorite dungeons in Skyrim is Ilinalta's Deep. From entering via the sunken entrance to the atmosphere of the flooded areas where water either drips or floods in, I can't get enough of it. I bet the level designer who worked on it had a lot of fun making it.

State of the Global Climate 2025
The World Meteorological Organization "State of Climate report confirms
2015-2025 hottest 11 years on record
Earth’s energy imbalance is highest in sixty five-year record.
The ocean has been absorbing about eighteen times the annual human energy use each year for the past two decades.
Extreme weather impacts millions and costs billions."

State of the Global Climate 2025
WMO’s State of the Global Climate report 2025 confirms that 2015-2025 are the hottest 11-years on record, and that 2025 was the second or third hottest year on record, at about 1.43 °C above the 1850-1900 average. Extreme events around the world, including intense heat, heavy rainfall and tropical cyclones, caused disruption and devastation and highlighted the vulnerability of our inter-connected economies and societies.The ocean continues to warm and absorb carbon dioxide. It has been absorbing the equivalent of about eighteen times the annual human energy use each year for the past two decades. Annual sea ice extent in the Arctic was at or near a record low, Antarctic sea ice extent was the third lowest on record, and glacier melt continued unabated, according to the report.For the first time, the report includes the Earth’s energy imbalance as one of the key climate indicators.

weather365How Weather Elements Interact?
Weather is a system: temperature shifts pressure, pressure drives wind, wind moves heat/moisture, moisture + lifting brings clouds/rain.
