it takes several years to catch such a sunset glow in beijing,bloody clouds blanket half the sky over west moutain
Los Alisios empujan nubes cargadas de agua, que al chocar con la Cumbre Nueva -1500 a 1600 metros de altura- caen empujadas por la diferencia de presión, temperatura y humedad. Visto desde La Cumbrecita del PN de la Caldera de Taburiente.

The Trade Winds -known as "Alisios"- push clouds full of water through the ocean to La Palma Island; then the clouds collide with the "Cumbre Nueva" range -1500 to 1600 m. high- and fall from the top, dissolving itself because of the pressure and temperature. Seeing from National Park of La Caldera de Taburiente, La Palma Island.

It's a wonderful experience to drive through the vast stretch of coastal drive known as "17-Mile Drive", with many Vista points. This was shot near a point called "Bird Rock"
Best viewed full-screen!
I think I like this one even better than the shot taken inside the Colisseum. There was this wonderful swirly cirrus cloud hovering above, adding a little interest to an otherwise plain blue sky. The midday harsh light works well for severe B&W conversions like this, I think!
I was just saying the other day how the summer skies aren't as fun as winter and then this happened.
The sky was so incredible, today - every possible kind of clouds, and every possible kind of colour - and ... the light!!!! No photoshop - just nature.
something very different form my usual kind of shots, but ... cloud catching has been such a fun!
have a nice evening :-)))

I was in the back yard just after sunset and spotted this cloud. It looked like a big bird, or maybe a pteradactyl.
A photo from warmer times. Our holiday on Mull in the summer. The clouds legged it as soon as I set up, not sure why or where they went. Not as famous as Skye but I think equally photogenic, this spot was tremendous with so many stunning views. A beautiful evening with a lovely rich golden light. Some seals came out to play just 10 feet from me as I was packing up.

I was looking at a sunset on the other side, then I turned around and saw these clouds.

I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes. ~e.e. cummings
A View From Skyline Drive, Shenandoah National Park, Virginia
3 bracket shots - merged and lightly tonemapped in Photomatix Pro
It's pretty cool to be above clouds - while on foot instead of in a plane. Once again, another storm system entered the Shenandoah Valley. Heavy rains fell for a few days due to the remnants of Tropical Depression Lee and produced this spectacular sight yesterday morning. The best 'fog ocean' I've seen at SNP since April of this year. But then again, it only happens a few times each year.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An excerpt from the Guide To SNP and Skyline Drive:
To a large extent, the mountain causes fog. Moving air masses must rise to get over the mountain. As the air rises, it expands and cools; if the air is moist, cooling may cause moisture to precipitate as tiny droplets, and produce the clouds that we call fog.
Half a dozen times a year, an atmospheric inversion may produce a strange effect: fog lies like a soft white blanket on the Shenandoah Valley and the Piedmont, while the mountaintop is clear. Then you can look down on a "fog ocean," with the lower peaks rising above it like islands.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To truly appreciate the magnitude of a fog system like this is to see it firsthand. I finally captured some video footage to go along with my post (see link below). Sometimes photos don't do justice - check out the video clip if you have a spare minute.
THANKS FOR VIEWING!
