Spotted a stunning lunar halo over Valencia (Spain) a few weeks ago. Ice crystals in the upper atmosphere created this perfect ring around the Moon, with a bright planet (likely Jupiter or Venus) shining nearby. Nature’s quiet light show never disappoints.

A bright full moon surrounded by a large, faint circular halo in a cloudy night sky. A bright point of light, likely a planet, appears to the upper left of the moon. The halo is caused by ice crystals in the upper atmosphere refracting the moonlight.

Stormchasing isn’t just a hobby—it’s a passion that fuels my curiosity and respect for nature’s raw power. I captured this shot during a thunderstorm in Spain, straight from the heart of the storm—

Twin lightning bolts split the night sky in parallel, striking the ground side by side during a thunderstorm over Spain.

New to Mastodon and excited to share moments like this—Caught this elegant trace of a wingtip vortex slicing through the sky—possibly the outer arc of a horseshoe vortex. These swirling trails reveal the invisible physics of lift in action!

A high-altitude aircraft-generated wingtip vortex appears as a faint, curved condensation trail against a clear blue sky. The vortex arc, likely part of a horseshoe vortex structure, is framed by dark silhouetted foliage and twisted vines in the foreground.
