Happy Fenced Friday. My first ever visit to the Hawaiian island of Kauai recently certainly made me stop in my tracks to admire the landscape. This was one of those moments, despite walking into a swarm of small flies. While I love the clouds here, I nevertheless wish I could have captured this area's landscape on a clearer day too.

Flying past a line of thunderstorms I caught a glimpse through a gap between two cumulonimbus storms. Their anvil tops had merged together above me making this window through to clearer skies beyond.

After tea it's back to painting - a large poplar at dusk with a gathering storm. From time to time instead of this evening painting session I go bowling in one of the neighbouring villages, but not very often.---Gustav Klimt

I love the stormy skies, the cloud textures and the slight threat of walking under a gathering storm...

Wanted to shoot the skyline again at night, but it was more of clouds and lightning show after it got dark. I tried to get lightning but couldn't. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

“Thirty-nine years of my life had passed before I understood that clouds were not my enemy; that they were beautiful, and that I needed them. I suppose this, for me, marked the beginning of wisdom. Life is short.”

I am at JMU currently with my son on “move in/orientation day” for this semester and I am “supposed” to be at the parent orientation presentations, BUT, when I woke up this morning my one ankle was raging in pain due to Achilles Tendonitis which made sitting in cramp auditorium seats painful. So I found some comfy seats in the next building and as I was kicked back relaxing I saw these incredible clouds float in front of me in the huge window. So I took out the best camera I have (..at the time my iPhone LOL!) and grabbed a couple of shots.

50 mile per hour winds and fast moving clouds made for an interesting sunset last night.

One from our little stroll up snowdon last week. This was near the top on the way back down, and as the cloud was clearing and whistling around the peak a cloud eagle appeared :) Was a great week. And a nice achievement for us making the peak from Rhyd Ddu.
