Aerial photography seems to be all the rage these days. Here are a few of mine from a recent trip.

It seems to be a returning subject, my endless escaping in the clouds..

Shots of the sky

We've had very little sun in Maine since this last colorful sunrise.

We have been holidaying in Tasmania. We drove to the top of Mt Wellington, even though it was covered in low cloud. Slowly the clouds lifted, & there was Hobart waiting to be seen.

Someone on my fb post of this pic suggested that there is dragon in the clouds. I too could see it after he mentioned.

Lemme know if you see it too. :)

- www.kevin-palmer.com - After shooting a severe storm at Bear Butte Lake, I went north to wait for this storm near Vale. This gust front produced a recorded wind gust of 79 mph in nearby Belle Fourche. I tried to get as close as I could without getting pummeled by the 2 inch hail.

Always nice to find a bridge like this to cross the river. While hiking Anme Machen, there were a couple of rivers that didn't have bridges so I needed to wade the cold glacier water which wasn’t the nicest part of the hike for sure.

This lenticular sucked up a whole lake and my neighbor but I missed that part---only kidding~

It was awesome to watch these things just hanging out there so close to my home and slowly changing shape—they were huge!

Lenticular means lens-like and apparently they are caused by strong upper level waves of wind hitting around high mountains condensing into clouds at the wind-waves highpoint.

Here they form near the summits of the nearly 14,000-foot two volcanoes of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea then drift away and keep changing form over a few hours. The volcanoes are just out of sight to the left. I took this picture a couple a few years ago from my house and scanned from a slide.

look at the before shot, I added alittle something to make it the way I saw it in my eye. :)

It was cloudy evening, the clouds covered the sun ,and remaining a little part of pinky sky lights

Clouds with-in clouds exploding.

I think it looks like clouds a painter might put to canvas. I do love me some clouds.
