Going through some of my old digital files I came across this image taken some years ago. Re-visiting old neglected files can sometimes be rewarding! No idea of the location though...
This is looking north of our high camp down into the valley below Mount Tom where Glacier Creek flows, the entire area was obscured by a sea of clouds as the sun starts to set.
A crow in mid-air. I loved the way the light came just through the clouds making the photo a bit more interesting. :)

Cracking display of noctilucent clouds taken from Dunnideer near Insch in Aberdeenshire, covering much o the sky at one stage and visible from around 2206 UTC right through until 0230 UTC. Dunnideer Castle dates back to 1260 AD, but the vitrified fort visible in the first section of the lapse is much older at around 250 BC. Apologies for any shaky bits, but it was a very windy night and I was using a lightweight tripod.
Taken between 2319 and 0156 UTC, 18th/19th June 2018.
I think Charlie Russel was in charge of painting the clouds that day...
If you've ever seen Charlie Russel paintings, you know all about Charlie Russel clouds. If you haven't, well, here's a little introduction:
In old St. Louis over in Missouri
The mighty Mississippi, well,
it rolls and flows.
A son was born to Mary Russell
And it starts the legend every cowboy knows.
Young kid Russell was born to wander.
Ever westward he was bound to roam,
Just a kid of sixteen in 1880.
Up in wild Montana he found his home.
God made Montana for the wild man,
For the Piegan and the Sioux and Crow,
Saved His greatest gift for Charlie,
Said, “Get her all down before she goes.
You gotta get her all down ‘cause she’s bound to go.”
God hung the stars over Judith Basin.
God put the magic in young Charlie’s hands.
And all was seen and all remembered,
Every shining mountain, every longhorn brand.
He could paint the light on horsehide shining,
The great passing herds of the buffalo,
And a cow camp cold on a rainy morning,
And the twisting wrist of the Houlihan throw.
When the Lord called Charlie to his home up yonder
He said, “Kid Russell, I got a job for you.
You’re in charge of sunsets up in old Montana
‘Cause I can’t paint them quite as good as you,
And when you’re done, we’ll go out and have a few,
And Nancy Russell will make sure it’s just two.

Cloud Gate, referred to by locals as "The Bean", is a public sculpture by British artist Anish Kapoor. Cloud Gate weighs in at over 110-tons, and is 66 feet long and 33 feet high. "The Bean" was created using a huge number of individual stainless steel plates. Cloud Gate's seamless surface is the result of thousands of hours of polishing.
The sculpture has the appearance of a giant drop of liquid mercury, and the mirrored surface offers an amazing reflection of the city skyline, even more breathtaking on a bright, clear day. Visitors can walk underneath the Cloud Gate, which is surprisingly concave.
Cloud Gate is one of the more popular photo opportunities in the city. In 2005, the City of Chicago tried an ill-fated attempt at requiring permits to photograph the sculpture, a move that was soon rescinded to the delight of shutterbugs everywhere.
