Storm Cloud

Gathering Clouds

This pre-lockdown day back in March was the last time I managed to photograph a steam locomotive... GWR Small Prairie 2-6-2T 4555 steams towards Staverton on the South Devon Railway during a Timeline Events photo charter.

ODC - On my Walk

Walking across the Meadows and Bruntsfield Links, paused to admire the view towards Arthur's Seat, the huge, extinct volcano which sits at the heart of Edinburgh (the Old Town and Castle sit on a volcanic spur from this). Small, sparse clouds were drifting just below the top, so I had to zoom in and take a pic before continuing on my way.

One of the things I love about Edinburgh isn't just the history and culture, but that we also get landscape views right in the middle of the city. And that landscape is also historical - Arthur's Seat was one of the spots that sparked the interest of Hutton, who would become the father of the science of geology.

Taken in Colorado during the 3rd week of August 2010. We were climbing North Eolus after a rain. This is looking over at Mt.Eolus during that time.

Clouds in a clear sky

A short time later. Looking east from Stolford, across Bridgwater Bay.

"E una fortuna vivere in questo mondo, osservare un fiore, una nuvola vagante, ascoltare un uccello, il sussurro delle spighe in un campo di grano, ammirare i tratti delle persone, le loro tendenze, il loro respiro segreto."

(Ingmar Bergman)

The winds were moving the low-lying fog and clouds quickly across the landscape as the sun hits the face of Mt. Outram in the Canadian Rockies.

Thanks for looking and your comments!

Flying above the clouds,

The day grows late.

Captured through the window of a passenger jet.

Some impressive clouds aligned up over Seneca Rocks ... worthy of a hand held capture I thought.

Didn't expect it to be quite so literal.

Standing on a hillside in Colorado Springs, Colorado, I took this photograph of clouds enveloping a nearby mountain.

Thank you all so much for the amazing response to my previous photo. More than 26,000 views in a couple of days - I love it when you all like what I like!

I'll try not to bore you all with multiple shots of the same thing, but I did also very much like this one.

Beautiful bubble clouds in the sky
