My first proper Earthquake!

 Last night at 3.07am was woken to everything moving, bedroom cupboard door rattling and general WTF moment! This is my first really quake, the previous one I had felt while I was offshore in Qatar, but thought that was just the crane driver being a bit rough with a load landing. Last nights was different, the whole place was shaking and lying it bed it felt really weird last a good 20+ seconds I would have guessed. Turns out it was a Magnitude 6.6, located around 48Km WNW of Polis, off the west coast of Cyprus. At least no damage here and everyone fine. Eldest daughter thought it was 'so cool', think that was her first experience of one as well. Full details can be found at: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000gaqu/executive

Just love a good lightning storm! [3rd December 2018]

We have been having some pretty amazing storms in Cyprus recently, and I have struggled to catch decent lightning shots. Then I came across Lightning Camera app and put it to use!

These were from the 3rd December storm. As you can see in some of the photos, the lightning flashes were so bright it turns night into day.
