"You leave me no alternative. Captain Scarlet, I sentence you to death."
"I understand, sir."
"However, as you are indestructible, there'd be little point in standing you up before a firing squad. Dismissed. "

At the lower reaches of the cloud base on the ascent of Snowdon. A last view before the world goes white. And steep.

Storm clouds overhead in Northern Nebraska on 19 May, 2009. There's no post-production sharpening here - just precipitation-free cloud base along a very specific line. This was the collision zone for two cells in a multi-cell cluster. In the distance you can see the beginnings of a cyclical wall-cloud forming, but the only thing these storms ended up producing was some golf-ball sized hail later in the day. This was one of my favorite shots from my first Midwest chasing expedition...
My first time looking down on the clouds! Taken on Zealand, denmark. Flat country / thermal country, it is therefore unusual to pass the cloudbase only happens when flying in between two different air masses.

Bournemouth Pier.
Went to Bournemouth to see the Annual summer Air Show, but it rained pretty heavily and the cloudbase was so low nothing much flew for the two days I was there. Fun.

A picture of a sea breeze front approaching Peterborough in June 2013. I was under a cumulus cloud with a 4500 ft base, but the cloudbase further east was a good 1000 ft lower, with wispy entrails hanging underneath. It made me want to get the heck out of there a.s.a.p....

The Imagine Peace Tower (Icelandic: Friðasúlan, 'the peace column') is a memorial to John Lennon from his widow, Yoko Ono, located on Viðey Island in Kollafjörður Bay near Reykjavík, Iceland.
Installed in 2007, it consists of a tall tower of light, projected from a white stone monument that has the words "Imagine Peace" carved into it in 24 languages. These words, and the name of the tower, are a reference to Lennon's campaign for peace, and his 1971 song "Imagine".
Description :
The Tower consists of 15 searchlights with prisms that act as mirrors, reflecting the column of light vertically into the sky from a 10-metre wide wishing well.
It often reaches cloudbase and indeed can be seen penetrating the cloud cover. On a clear night, it appears to reach an altitude of at least 4,000 metres. The power for the lights is provided by Iceland's unique geothermal energy grid. It uses approximately 75 kW of power.
Buried underneath the light tower are over 1 million written wishes that Ono gathered over the years for another project called Wish Trees. Iceland was selected for the project because of its beauty and its eco-friendly use of geothermal energy.
Operation :
The tower is lit every year from 9 October, Lennon's birthday, through 8 December, the date he was shot, from 31 December until 6 January (an Icelandic new year period), and for one week around the spring equinox.
On 9 October 2021, it was lit for the 15th time on John Lennon's birthday.
The monument was lit on 24 February 2022, with Ono saying the off-season lighting was "to show solidarity with Ukraine and emphasize the call for peace."
It was nice and clear at night, but in the morning we were above cloudbase.

Indications of wavelets over W99, despite the SSW flow, on 2006.11.29. The cloudbase is estimated to be 7000 to 10000 feet MSL and the cloud features, especially in the highlighted area, are indicative of wavelets formed by the high-speed airmass flowing from the SSW over the Allegheny Plateau and Ridges.
Usually the best conditions for wave at Petersburg require high-speed NW winds from 850mb to 300mb (5000' to 30,000' MSL), but this photo demonstrates that smaller wavelets can form even when the winds are from the SSW.
Photos taken at 11:10 a.m. GMT-5 / EST on 2006.11.29 from WV State Route 42 a few miles North of Petersburg. The mid-point faces roughly south west.
See the potential wavelet indicating cloud(s) in the middle right-hand of the panorama detailed in the following photos: 1 and 2.
With the cloudbase obscuring the higher peaks, the details of the lower slabs and ridges are more noticeable!
