Beautiful clouds before thunder and lightning

Sunset over Cwmbran south wales

A Chinook is not an uncommon sight in Calgary, Alberta, but never have I seen one this spectacular! I was outside doing my Christmas lights when the sun began to set and cast this orange glow on the underside of the Chinook, emphasizing this awesome relief pattern of the cloud formation.

That's a pretty self-explanatory title.

Half this image already existed in the clouds, all it required was a little cropping, mirroring and increased contrast to complete it.

I must try to get to the Caldera at sunset one day. In the meantime I'll just watch the clouds.

After the rain sneaks in overnight, the clouds the next day have been abundant and beautiful! No, the rain has not been abundant! Since July 1, the beginning of the so-called "rainy season", rainfall recorded for LA is just under half an inch!

I can see an eye peeping out.

If clouds could talk....

Haven't posted a lightning strike in what feels like AGES, which is probably far from the truth. Anyways, this was a towering strike that I cropped to fill the entire frame. The original capture had it a bit more to the left than I liked. When shooting lightning, sometimes you don't aim in the right spot and almost miss. So cropping is a fantastic way to recompose the image to get your bolt looking awesome.

 

In the realm of weather, a lightning strike that hits the surface of the earth is technically called "Cloud to Ground" or CG. These are the kind I of course go for. There are very, very rare occasions where "In Cloud" lightning creates an awesome image.

 

I have one of those rare ones that I'll post at a later day. One of my favorites.

This was the first afternoon of my trip. It was rainy most of the day, and then this popped out for about 20 minutes.

Sometimes our atmosphere looks incredibly complex and three-dimensional, sometimes you don't even see it.

 

Manchmal schaut unsere Atmosphäre unglaublich Komplex und dreidimensional aus, manchmal fast unsichtbar.

Enormous cloud formations dominate the landscape on a hot, humid, summer's day in rural Queen Anne's County, on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.

The morning was cold...but so worth

getting out there.
