These rare Nacreous clouds also known as polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs), appeared over Dublin for the last couple of days.
These rare and beautiful clouds shimmer with colours you find in a seashell, hence their nickname "mother of pearl clouds".
Dublin 2/2/2016
Just an interesting late Spring cloud bank over the Atlantic coast, as seen from our Brooklyn apartment. Taken through our 7th floor double paned window using a P&S camera, so it's a bit grainy. I enhanced the color saturation using Photoshop Elements 13.
There's nothing like a good old fashioned midwestern summer thunderstorm... especially dramatic from above!
We had just been in a snow flurry and then when we were on HWY 395 it was awesome to look back at the clouds that had caused it.
A vast stretch of flat aqua water, boats and birds, islands and clouds with tropical music - you are in the Florida Keys.
Mayon has the classic conical shape of a stratovolcano. It is the most active volcano in the Philippines. Since 1616, Mayon has erupted 47 times. The beautifully symmetrical Mayon volcano, which rises to 2,460 meters above the Albay Gulf, is the Philippines' most active volcano. The structurally simple volcano has steep upper slopes that average 35-40 degrees and is capped by a small summit crater. The historical eruptions of this basaltic-andesitic volcano date back to 1616 and range from Strombolian to basaltic Plinian. Eruptions occur predominately from the central conduit and have also produced lava flows that travel far down the flanks. Pyroclastic flows and mudflows have commonly swept down many of the approximately 40 ravines that radiate from the summit and have often devastated populated lowland areas.
The Espiguette beach is a magnificent wild beach near Le Grau-du-Roi, in the south of France. It stretches for some 18 kilometers and is renowned for its impressive dunes and unspoilt natural environment.
Jökulsárlón, Iceland.
Because they are so high up in the atmosphere, cirrus clouds consist of ice particles suspended in the air. Accordingly, this photo depicts mainly ice in the air and on the land and water.
I guess that is why they call this place Iceland ;-)
