Forget air-conditioned office buildings in some featureless plain that extends for hundreds of miles in suffocating stagnant air; *this* is where we ought to spend our time. But then again, there's only one "Capri"...
Painting by Karl Wilhelm Diefenbach.

How often one wishes on a hot day to be immersed in a place like this, even if the price of admission is to be (or perhaps become...) something not entirely human...
"A Mermaid in the Vortex of a Wave", by Karl Wilhelm Diefenbach.

Where I'd rather have been this summer...
Karl Wilhelm Diefenbach's ever-evocative painting of "Capri".

NGL, as someone intimately familiar with injustice...I wouldn't view such a sight as some tragic disaster. One might even look forward to it...were it not for the age-old admonition to be careful what you wish for...
By the incomparable John Martin: "The Great Day of His Wrath".

One can't help but wonder how many ages this sentinel of the gods has seen come and go...once you've seen so many millennia, even the coastlines themselves start to seem as effervescent as the weather...
Karl Wilhelm Diefenbach: "Sphinx by the Sea".

"The Ghosts Yet Dance" in this big sky...with Devil's Tower before me, this is truly one of the most spectacular places you could come face-to-face with a supercell thunderstorm. And one evening...I experienced just that, and captured this with my camera.

Perhaps we all have to find out for ourselves some time, but for the nonce, I have no idea what the portal to the underworld would even look like...but I like to think Karl Wilhelm Diefenbach was onto something with his visualization of "Toteninsel", the Isle of the Dead.

The sort of surf that seems to whisper the secrets of the universe itself...
By the ever-atmospheric Karl Wilhelm Diefenbach: "Capri III".

There's nothing else quite like the lingering snows of summer, especially when you've sailed as far north as the open waters will carry you, and you taste air from the divine realm even further beyond...
I call this shot "Grimnir's Breath"; taken in Svalbard's Isfjorden.

When you're this far north, and it's *always* bright crisp daylight with snowflakes drifting through the air...and *this* is midsummer, you feel like you're slipping beyond the Earth as our ancestors knew it...
Taken in Longyearbyen one June: "Midnight in the Shadow World".

A new world demands new ideas, perhaps even vehicles only hitherto fielded in the realm of dreams, but though the shape of things to come may change, man's appreciation for the sublime will not. A view I could totally see a photographer snapping in the future: "Monowheel in twilight Martian dust storm", painted by me.

One of those places where, on a few lucky summer, evenings, the sky above you comes to life like nowhere else...
Captured by me one July: "Storm rising at Devil's Tower".

I wish I could have experienced more nights like this in my childhood, when your bare feet caress a monument already ancient in ancient times, and you seem to gaze into the mists of time itself...
From Karl Wilhelm Diefenbach: "Sphinx mit Undine".

I know I've been showing (and enjoying!) some lush vibes, but I start to also miss that stark minimalist purity that only the deepest deserts can provide. Maybe soon I'll go back and experience "A Moonlit Night at Badwater"...captured by yours truly one December evening.

It's getting to be that time of the year...when the sun grows high, the days grow long, and you hear thunder echoing across the fields. The place was Kentucky, but the vibes are pure Tornado Alley, in my capture, "Summer Storm Rising".

The most uninhabitable shirt-sleeve environment in the solar system...and you don't have to go as far as Artemis II to visit it. In fact, it's within a day's drive of Los Angeles. But beware: you might not come out the same as you went in.
Taken where the vibes begin, in the Panamint Valley: "Leave Behind Life".

It's almost that time of the year again: when the Plains come alive with whispers of nature's greatest fury, and the lovers of the sublime hit the road, "Chasing the Storm".
Captured by me in Wyoming.

I think we really underestimate how beautiful it can be on the other planets. Oh, this scene is fictional, but when we blaze the loneliest trails in the solar system, I betcha there will be nights that'll look *just like this*.

When the desert is a bit colder than you expected...
Captured from one November in Utah, "Land of Rock, Land of Snow, Land of Fog".

Somehow this is still one of my favorite evenings I've ever spent: face-to-face with a supercell in one of the quietly strangest places on this earth.
Captured one July, "Storm rising at Devil's Tower".
