Cool and pristine, the clouds stand proudly untouched, from the plane's window at 37,000 feet en route to Turkey.

A small proportion of female Clouded Yellows (5-15%) have a pale ground colour unlike the rich yellow colour of "typical" females. But this pale variant never occurs in the male Clouded Yellows. The pale variant is known as form helice and is quite variable in itself, ranging from pure white to primrose yellow. I managed to photograph this helice female resting in Spain's Coto Donana. Clouded Yellows breed commonly in southern Europe and North Africa but migrate north to escape the deteriorating conditions of summer when many of the plants wither in the heat. When conditions are favourable, these same Clouded Yellows reach Britain, sometimes in large numbers. But they are generally scarce in the north, and most likely to be encountered along the south coast.
Female Clouded Yellows can be distinguished from males by having pale spots in the dark border of the upperside forewing. But they never bask with wings apart showing these spots but you can see them shining through to the underside forewings.

Yellowstone NP, WY, Grand Loop Drive. The shorter drive through Norris was closed so we had to do this climbing drive by Mt Washburn, which gave me a chance to see some more wonderful clouds

I'm ready for some cooler temps and fall colors. Took this last November back behind my Mom's house...

From the rooftop of the hotel I stayed in Darjeeling. I witnessed clouds ascending and descending from different abodes completely engulfing the valley below and the sun above. The dusk rays fought hard to penetrate one loaf and illuminate the other. I, for once, was happy being the salami :)

While out on a drive around the neighborhood I noticed these amazing clouds. Thanks to macgrrl84, we've learned these are an example of mammatus, or mammatocumulus clouds.
You can't walk on those streets in the sky.... cumulus clouds over the lower Ebro valley. Seen from the our house in the country.
I drove around for almost 30 minutes trying to find a good spot to capture the sunset over the mountains. As I realized my time was running out, I had to settle with this place. I started the timelapse and wondered around a bit, to make sure there wasn't a good view I missed close by.
I noticed someone walking two dogs in the distance, heading my way. I soon realized that the dogs were dragging their leashes, running towards me while barking. I figured they were running up to say hello, like most pet dogs do, but one of them bit me on the leg before I realized they weren't happily excited, but more protect-our-master-mode. (Or so I'd guess) All of this could have been easily avoided if I was more cautious, or better yet, if I could understand, and speak their language. However, we did communicate a little. As the one that bit me ran off, the other ran up to me, but this time I stuck my foot out, and kept it close to it's face. I told him that I didn't want to kick him, but I would if he tried to attack me. I don't think he understood my English, but it seemed like he got the message through my body language. He backed off, and I was happy that I didn't have to kick him.
The bite wasn't bad, mainly puncture wounds, with a small cut. It stung! Once the owner caught up, I asked if they had their shots, she said they did. She also said she was going to buy a muzzle for the one that bit me, while I thought to myself, yesterday would have been a great time to buy that!
After they passed, I sat down and put some snow on the bite to ease the pain and slow the swelling. It felt good. Once it was a little numb, I walked back to my car, and n the way a car passed me, stopped and turned around to ask if I was alright. I said I would be fine, and told them the story. They offered to take me to their house down the road to get cleaned up, and then to the hospital (where they were originally headed) I told them that I'd love to get some peroxide or something on the wound, but I didn't have time to go to the hospital, and I'd do that later. (I had to leave this night, and I still had a long drive ahead of me. I also wanted to finish capturing the sunset.)
It's not the foreground I was hoping for, but I'm glad I caught some good cloud action during the sunset, and that is why I wish I stayed at the place I shot the previous timelapse, but hind sight is 20/20 now isn't it! (Is it too much to ask for the ability to talk to animals and see the future? I promise I'll use those special powers for good!)

Some nice layered clouds formed in the sky this afternoon. As I left work I just knew I had to get out and shoot something. This was taken at a little pond in the 'Albany Creek Memorial Gardens and Cemetery'.
Shot with a Canon EOS 40D, Sigma 10-20mm and 0.9 hard grad.

Cloud Gate is a public sculpture by Indian-born British artist Sir Anish Kapoor, that is the centerpiece of AT&T Plaza at Millennium Park in the Loop community area of Chicago, Illinois. The sculpture and AT&T Plaza are located on top of Park Grill, between the Chase Promenade and McCormick Tribune Plaza & Ice Rink. Constructed between 2004 and 2006, the sculpture is nicknamed The Bean because of its shape. Made up of 168 stainless steel plates welded together, its highly polished exterior has no visible seams. It measures 33 by 66 by 42 feet (10 by 20 by 13 m), and weighs 110 short tons (100 t; 98 long tons).
Kapoor's design was inspired by liquid mercury and the sculpture's surface reflects and distorts the city's skyline. Visitors are able to walk around and under Cloud Gate's 12-foot (3.7 m) high arch. On the underside is the "omphalos" (Greek for "navel"), a concave chamber that warps and multiplies reflections. The sculpture builds upon many of Kapoor's artistic themes, and it is popular with tourists as a photo-taking opportunity for its unique reflective properties.
