Hey guys,

 

I wanted to share this fantastic set if images from the 2016 Weather Photographer of the Year competition run by the the Royal Meteorological Society and The Royal Photographic Society. The images are the finalists for this year’s competition.

 

You can see the full range of finalist images using this link. I’m a big fan of nature photography in particular, what about you guys? What sort of images do you find most pleasing to the eye?

Looking at the accessory (which costs as much as a DSLR) it almost is!

Mines good enough to see detail in Saturn's rings and clouds on Jupiter.
It's all down to the eye pieces you can get.

If you can see that @viridis, it would do for me. Cheers for the info.
