Actually it was a sunset, but nevermind that! And so it was a few months back! You get the meaning!
I propose that in the New Year Of Hope and Transformation, we let ourselves all pull as one!
Wispy clouds drifting over Breiðafjörður in W-Iceland, whose islands and skerries are traditionally said to be too many to count (modern science says they are about 2,800 that have some dry land even at high tide).
Explored September 24 2011! Thx guys!! :)

Picture is selected for a special exhibition at EU House in Nicosia on 16 March 2012, to be attended by the European Commissioner on Climate Action - Connie Hedegaard. Currently displayed at the gallery at the end of Ledra/Lokmaci Street, Nicosia.
It's November 5 and we just had a tornado on the ground in North Fort Worth. What's with the weather?
We were decending through the cloud layer, the setting sun fell behind the clouds but the reflection was still strong on the ocean so I snapped this shot.
It's actually sharp enough to make out details of Downtown Del Mar, California. (may need to view large)
“Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.” (Tagore).
Iridescent clouds are a beautiful phenomenon-but they're rarely seen and even less frequently photographed.
Iridescent clouds, known as "fire rainbows" or "rainbow clouds," occur when sunlight diffracts off water droplets in the atmosphere. And the recipe for these heavenly sights is actually pretty simple.
What happens is that the cumulus cloud, boiling upwards, pushes the air layers above it higher and higher. As the air gets pushed upwards, it expands and cools. And sometimes moisture in that air suddenly condenses into tiny droplets to form a cap cloud.
This "cap"—which scientists call a "pileus"—is the source of the brilliant spectacle.
The droplets in the cap cloud scatter sunlight to form the gorgeous colors.
I felt very lucky to have seen this. It's a very rare sight. California.
Another picture of the supercell over Aduard on 5 June, 2015. Unfortunately the quality of the photograph is subpar due to the variations in lighting levels along the length of the panorama.
Clearly visible is a mesocyclone in the form of a rotating wall cloud in the centre, which minutes previously had been much more prominent and, according to reports, reached about 70% to the ground.
Also clearly visible is an inflow tail and an RFD to the right, as well as a general inflow cloud, here coming in from the north/the right side of the picture. You can also see what is possible a sattelite rotation here.

Hoje omito minhas palavras,
mas com uma vontade louca de gritar ao mundo...
This, my fine flickr friends, is what the inside of my head has looked like for the last week - the feathered canyons and dark clouds (to quote Joni Mitchell)of a summer cold descended upon me . No photos, no inclinations even, no uploads and no likes, no comments and finally this evening I rushed down to the beach to get some shots and it was overcast and no waves. I looked upwards and saw these great summer storm clouds with the sun peeking out behind for just a few minutes - a perfect visual metaphor for my week ;)
ok, not architecture. more clouds. some buildings in there, too, so i guess it's tangentially architectural.
mainly it's just a picture of some gigantic clouds bearing down on relatively tiny l.a.
more buildings to follow.
Powerful winds at sunset, observed from Col d'Ambin, an alpine pass in the Cottian Alps located on the Italian-French border at 2,921 meters above sea level.
A photo tries to convey the atmosphere experienced in such moments of primeval essence…
Fortunately, I’ve also taken some videos in this splendid location, which can be viewed at the following links:
