Lovecraftian Sunset

All My Links

 

I wasn’t looking for them, nor did I expect to see them, but I remember remarking to my friend, “They look like Jellyfish” referring to the strangest clouds I’d seen as of late, pockets of cloud that had begun to secularly condense to form rain curtains, yet evaporate before reaching the ground, upon the backdrop of a warm Spring evening. Being the type of photographer, that carries my gear with me as often as I can, paid off that evening.

 

After some research these are apparently a type of hybrid between altocumulus and cirrus, but are indeed unofficially called Jellyfish Clouds. I did take a closer shot that’ll I’ll post up soon, but they looked so eerily alien and as with the title, Lovecraftian.

 

I hope everyone is well and so as always, thank you! 😊
