Got caught in the tail back at Newby Bridge but managed to get around it via Canny Hill. Langdale in the distance on this one. On the way out this morning, the cloudbase here was about 600-700 feet but a Tornado went north over the lake underneath the cloud as I drove along this section.

XCmag used a few of my photos (2 for a story on Manilla) in the Jan/Feb '11 issue. The big score was this large 'Flying Flatlands' poster included of a view during a flatlands flight after a tow up at Big John's paddock NE of Eudunda. Couldn't make it to cloudbase that day (hard climbing out!) and only pulled 23km. A few more photos of the day on my XContest track log.

I liked what was going on with this one as well...the closing maneouvre in front of the sun looked really quite spectacular, and was beautifully executed.
Generally when we see them the Reds finish the show with a Vixen Break, so I don't know if this was a cloudbase or flight line restriction/opportunity but it certainly was beautiful.
For various odd reasons, we actually saw three of these today, but this one had the most interesting sky.

(in and out of the low cloudbase)
On the southbound third leg from Rhynie back to Portmoak. Heading south over the mountains from Aboyne. Cloudbase lovely and high now! (We're about 7000' QNH.)
Happens to be the last frame I took in Berchtesgaden before my journey home; for once the cloudbase was high enough to reveal all the local mountains.

Still above the cloudbase, by the way, the temperature was around freezing... My arm is still frozen ;-)
Long-ish (30sec) exposure of Edinburgh, viewed from Downing Point, Dalgety Bay. It's amazing just how much edinburgh lights up the sky like this when there's a low cloudbase. I'd gone out hoping to see some meteors, but the overcast sky and this lot soon put paid to that plan.
This is just a wee basic-quality JPEG straight out the camera (I was shooting RAW+JPEG).
