I've been absent from the photo hunts but they are a great way to get in a Saturday post. And since I have a lot of "nautical" shots it was very easy for me to find one that fit the prompt.
This was taken from our little balcony at the Doria Park Hotel in Lerici, Italy. A little thunder storm had just passed and the light changes were fun to watch.

Beautiful shot! I love the contrast of the red buildings with the water.
Hope you have a great Valentine's weekend!

I love this shot. The sky or cloud portion tells the story.
Great take on the theme!
