Keep looking up!

Quasi con invidia leggo le opere dei miei contemporanei

su divorzi, addii, il dolore delle separazioni;

sofferenza, nuovi inizi, piccole morti;

lettere lette e bruciate, bruciare e leggere, fuoco e cultura,

ira e disperazione – magnifica materia per una poesia riuscita;

un duro giudizio, a volte una risata sarcastica di superiorità morale,

e insieme definitivo trionfo della continuità individuale.

 

E noi? Non ci saranno elegie, né sonetti sulla separazione,

non ci dividerà lo schermo dei versi,

non si porrà fra noi una metafora riuscita,

l’unica separazione che ora ci minaccia è il sonno,

il profondo antro del sonno la cui soglia varchiamo separati,

– e devo sempre ricordare che la tua mano,

stretta nella mia, è fatta di sogni.

Wikipedia: Mammatus (also known as mammatocumulus, meaning "bumpy clouds") is a meteorological term applied to a cellular pattern of pouches hanging underneath the base of a cloud. The name "mammatus" is derived from the Latin mamma (breast), due to the resemblance between the shape of these clouds and human female breasts.

 

We had a bad storm come through this evening, high winds & little rain. This is only the 2nd time in my life I've seen & photographed "mammatus clouds. The first time was 10+ years ago in Florida.

 

Original image taken into Photoshop CS, used the plug-in Virtual Photographer & the "landscape" vpf filter.

   

 

It's almost time for spring and more storm chasing opportunities. This storm was a major system and many of the "Big Chase Teams" were lined up for this one. It did not product a tornado, but had a great wall cloud. About 35 minutes after I made this image, there was 2 inches of marble sized hail produced 10 miles to the north.

I recently viewed some awsome BW storm clouds I found on Twitter, and they appeared to be done in Infrared. They turned out very ominus looking, so I wanted to try using some of the plug-ins to see if I could duplicate that. The BW version did not look that great, but NIK's IR has several versions on a dropdown, I thought this one looked really awsome.

A walk around a local lake, its surface was very smooth and reflected the blue autumn sky and clouds.

Four mini-canvases, each a different take on the sky and clouds. Flattened into a two-dimensional painting by the camera, it's the corner of a brown minivan captured as shown as we were coming out of the Blue Heron in Duncans Mills, CA on the Russian River.

Saw a fantastic looking cloud overlooking a Taco Bell/KFC. I love how detailed it looks...almost like a giant cauliflower.

A cloud formation that (kind of) looks like a unicorn standing on its hind legs.

Mount Timpanogos looking NE from about 1200 North.

Driving south from Alpine, Texas, towards Big Bend, the clouds were making crazy formations, changing quickly.

Palouse, Idaho. Spring clouds dift over green wheat and rolling Palouse hills.

 

Finally in some areas it's becoming green again. Classic low cloud formation over the Palouse. I waited about 10 minutes for shadows to fill the foreground. Without them the image looked like a bright sunny day and no drama.

 

Enjoy,
