The giant thunder cloud grows bigger and bigger.

Almost midnight and a fog bank draws in...

In this one image, you can see fluffy clouds, sunny clouds, dark clouds and raining clouds.

Clouds with-in clouds exploding.

Seen this afternoon looking out over the Bristol channel from Weston-Super-Mare.

Storm clouds over Curl Curl beach, one of Sydney's northern beaches.

This cloud was seen in Cancun. We didn't really get any rain except one day but there were certainly many showers nearby in the vicinity.

I took this shot while my husband was driving 60 miles an hour down a country road. It was hard to get it with out telephone poles or any other obstructions. It wasn't long before the rain began to fall.

Taken a few days ago just down the street from my house, I thought these lone clouds in an otherwise empty sky looked pretty cool!

I am off to take Beefy for an early morning nature walk...have an excellent Saturday, everyone!

The clouds at Ocean Shores were being pretty dramatic. I was there to shoot owls (which we found) but the clouds were where my attention was aimed.

I took this almost 20 years ago in the northern Owens Valley northwest of Bishop. This was one of those remarkable days that made it worth shooting as most summer days in the Owens Valley are hot and cloudless.

Anvil cloud at the leading edge of a violent monsoon thunderstorm. The light is completely natural--the glow inside the cloud comes from lightning and the sun. The anvil cloud rose so high in the sky that it captured the last rays of the setting sun long after everything else in the land was darkened and in silhouette.

Note how the top of the anvil cloud looks hazy and out of focus; it is not, this is caused by upper level winds ripping apart the clouds at the top f the 'stack' or anvil. The wind erases the textbook 'billowing' margins of the cloud, causing the distinctive blurring effect.

Venus and Jupiter playing peek-a-boo behind the clouds… can you find them?

Good morning to all and a good start into the day.

Seconds after this shot was taken the heavens opened with no warning hence the title!

This image was taken about 30 minutes after my earlier post called "The Passing of Time." I had been fooling around with a Lee Big Stopper filter and was not too happy with the heavy overcast sky. But then, just before sunset, the sun broke through the clouds at the horizon with such intensity that the entire break wall and the green moss on the rocks began to glow in the sun. I ditched the Big Stopper and replaced it with an ND grad. But now, maybe I need to get a reverse grad filter :-)
