I've looked at clouds from both sides now,
From up and down, and still somehow,
It's cloud illusions I recall,
I really don't know clouds, at all.

The view from the balcony at my favorite place to stay when I'm in the mountains.

It was warm yesterday and strong wind from south. These clouds formed over the Vaðlaheiði hill close to Akureyri. It looked a bit like an invation;-)
A View From Skyline Drive, Shenandoah National Park, Virginia

It's pretty cool to be above clouds - while on foot instead of in a plane. Once again, another storm system entered the Shenandoah Valley. Heavy rains fell for a few days due to the remnants of Tropical Depression Lee and produced this spectacular sight yesterday morning. The best 'fog ocean' I've seen at SNP since April of this year. But then again, it only happens a few times each year.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An excerpt from the Guide To SNP and Skyline Drive:
To a large extent, the mountain causes fog. Moving air masses must rise to get over the mountain. As the air rises, it expands and cools; if the air is moist, cooling may cause moisture to precipitate as tiny droplets, and produce the clouds that we call fog.
Half a dozen times a year, an atmospheric inversion may produce a strange effect: fog lies like a soft white blanket on the Shenandoah Valley and the Piedmont, while the mountaintop is clear. Then you can look down on a "fog ocean," with the lower peaks rising above it like islands.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To truly appreciate the magnitude of a fog system like this is to see it firsthand. I finally captured some video footage to go along with my post (see link below). Sometimes photos don't do justice - check out the video clip if you have a spare minute.
THANKS FOR VIEWING!
I always enjoy photographing nice clouds... especially on those really blue sky days after a big storm washes the gunk out of the air....

I shot this on Friday with the help of my Mums fiance, then edited it on my train into London yesterday at 7am. I'm now waiting for my train home after a weekend of being here in London, for Brookes workshop and then the small meet up Rosie and I organised, but more about both of those in my next few uploads...
This was, of course, entirely inspired by Angharads much better photo.

Clouds that cover the north part of the island of Tenerife and are blocked by the highest peaks. This is one of the views we saw yesterday, when we drove up to the volcano El Teide (the highest mountain in Spain). More pics to come!
PS. On the top right hand side of the shot you can see part of another island in the 7 island archipelago. On a clear day you can see all 7 islands from the top of El Teide.

Palouse, Washington. Cumulus clouds dance across sky leaving dapple sunlight falling onto rolling hills of green wheat starts. Midday is best to capture this type of amazing shadow play on the Palouse landscape.
Yesterday's storm clouds moving into the Palouse. Today it's raining. Memorial day looks best for photos. That's when the clouds clear and we have epic sunsets. Also the sky is the clearest because the dust has settled from the rains.
Enjoy,
Ry
