The Caldeirão Verde waterfall during a really heavy downpour, which was probably one of the most tropically impressive views in Madeira, Portugal. 🇵🇹 This waterfall is 100 meters high, and the water flows into a huge basin. My entire photo equipment was totally soaked, miraculously nothing was damaged!
A view of the Mont Blanc massif from the Jura massif in Switzerland. The white peak on the far left is Dent du Geant, which you may remember from my previous posts. It's about 90 km in a straight line from where the photo was taken.
The nice thing about higher resolution on modern cameras is the ability to crop in quite a bit... and I don't even have one of those 40 or 60MP cameras!

May 8, 1983, 41 years ago today: There is nothing like trying to pack up everything you own in a downpour. My sleeping bag was soaked, my tent was hopeless; everything was drenched. Adding insult to injury, the rain came to a dead stop about five minutes after I had finished packing.
