A monsterous cloud that shadowed a grassy land . But ther was some sun peeping out highlighting the green grass. I was in this location for another advt. shoot and was lucky to have got such a pic. In nature photography luck always plays a vital role.

These clouds looked a little bit like a rough map of Europe to me, though could just be my imagination....!
Ooh, I just know that something good is gonna happen.
And I don't know when,
But just saying it could even make it happen.
Ooo-ohh, just saying it could even make it happen.

Mount Banahaw (alternatively Banáhao) is a dormant volcanic complex located on the boundary of Majayjay, Laguna and Lucban, Quezon in Luzon, Philippines. It is considered to be sacred by the local residents because of its "holy water"and "puwesto"s, or holy sites. These are composed of natural features with shrines located in or on them, revealed to a man by the "Santo Boses" or Holy Voice. --From Wikipedia
"In Almere kan het" (In Almere it can happen). I caught these wonderfull clouds with a Nokia Lumia 920 - unfortunately I did *not* bring my camera with me. The only improvements I have made is a little noise reduction and straighten the horizon.
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.
Funky clouds over Toyosu area in Tokyo.
Going over there to view some flats today, better bring my umbrella!
I think you have to know who you are. Get to know the monster that lives in your soul, dive deep into your soul and explore it.

A nice display of noctilucent clouds was seen on July 3, 2014, over Europe. This image was taken at 22:59 CEST, 113 minutes after sunset, in Austria (48°N). Check this photo to see the appearance of the same clouds 12 minutes earlier.
At an altitude of ~80 kilometers, noctilucent clouds are the highest clouds in Earth's atmosphere. Therefore, they are still illuminated by sunlight even when the ground and the lower atmosphere is already dark. The details of the formation of these high clouds are still not fully understood.
This image was explored on flickr on July 3, 2014.

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.
Storm clouds were forming on a summer backpacking trip in the Eastern Sierra Nevada when we hiked up a big meadow to Parker Pass on the edge of Yosemite National Park. I was glad I was trailing my husband and was able to capture this photo of him sihouetted against the looming sky.
I posted the same picture in B&W a couple of weeks ago, and took a similar picture (with lesser foreground, more sky) that I am also posting today
The end of daylight was approaching trying to create a warm light yet having a hard time pushing through the fog and low clouds of the evening.
We could see the warm water vapor rising from the cooling towers of the Palo Verde Nuclear generating Plant, located at least 60 miles away from our house. The conditions, temperature and pressure, were just right on this day where the vapor remained visible and was even perfect enough to form its own clouds that stretched several tens of miles to the South of the towers.

I'd appreciate a link back and it would be really nice If you could post what you've used for in the comments.
"Begin this day with a smile! You are alive, having survived the darkness of another night... and the sun is shining just above the clouds, even on the grayest of days. If in doubt, ask any airline pilot for he knows the truth, having risen above the clouds."
Got on a plane on a gray and rainy morning and hurried to get my camera out when I saw this after climbing through the clouds.
