Source: The Chronicle-Tribune, Marion, Indiana Round 1: Speaking of weather, check out this photograh: I just happened upon this image by chance, and it impressed me so much that I kept it. Can you guess what your're looking at? to let me know what you think it is. Round 2: Okay, now check out this photograh: So once every seven years or so I find another one. Another impressive image -- it's not really weather, though (or is it?). Can you guess what your're looking at? to let me know what you think it is.

It's been a few years again, but here is another photograph to guess. How accurately can you guess what your're looking at, in detail? to let me know what you think it is.
