Sana dün bir tepeden baktım aziz İstanbul,

Görmedim gezmediğim, sevmediğim hiç bir yer.

Ömrüm oldukça gönül tahtıma keyfince kurul,

Sade bir semtini sevmek bile bir ömre değer...

Nice revnaklı şehirler görülür dünyada,

Lakin efsunlu güzellikleri sensin yaratan.

Yaşamıştır derim en hoş ve uzun rüyada,

Sende çok yıl yaşamış, sende ölen, sende yatan...

(Yahya Kemal Beyatlı)

Interesting walk on the boardwalk

Fog creating an interesting sky

A still from a timelapse. (see next photo) I decided to put myself in this one.

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.

I noticed these amazing clouds as they floated by a field of recently cut grain and knew I had to stop.

This is just another sunset from home,

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.

Clouds from a Plane

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.

Il tramonto su Roma dopo il diluvio universale.

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!

View of sun rising over the Organ Mountains.

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.

Better view in black, press"L".

They looked so beautiful that summers day
