Back in 2007 - before the cane industry went belly-up.
From Hali`imaile looking mauka toward Makawao on a day when there were storms in the vicinity. This shot almost got discarded until I got a new monitor. It was too dark on my old one. Even now it's too dark due to my polarizing filter. I keep it up just as a reminder of my learning curve.
The clouds are about right, but I wish the sky were a bit lighter.

It was the annual Steam Rally at the Lincolnshire Showground, and I was helping to man the Lincolnshire Mills Group marquee. The sun shone fitfully through storm clouds, and the pleasant smell of the many exhibits was in the air. Suddenly there was a loud roar, I dashed out of the tent, and just in time saw the Red Arrows doing a fly past over the Showground.
Big poufy cloud ~ what more do you need to know? ;o) ... At first - it kind of made me wonder if there weren't some governmental testing grounds *over there* or something, but ~ I haven't grown a hump on my back or anything ... yet ... but stay tuned - there's still time ...
Update:
Okay - so I consulted a weather expert friend and he was kind enough to explain this cloud formation to me ~ this big poufy cloud I thought was so cute and harmless isn't exactly so cute and harmless ...
"The name they give it is called "Cumulonimbus incus"
A cumulonimbus incus (Latin incus, "anvil") is a cumulonimbus cloud which has reached the level of stratospheric stability and has formed the characteristic flat, anvil-top shape. It can cause a supercell and then a tornado.
A cumulonimbus incus is a sub-form of cumulonimbus capillatus."
I see these quite frequently in my area of North Texas and thought they were just big poufy clouds ~ from now on, I will have to be more aware of them (and definitely have my camera at the ready!) ...
Thanks to Nebraskasc for the cloud ID!
For years we told our kids that clouds were made here ..... well it's not that far off the truth! :-)
Jorn Olsen works for the Dutton-Lainson Co. in Hastings, NE, and these are a couple of his photos. These are Mammatus clouds. They are formed when the air is already saturated with rain droplets and/or ice crystals and begins to sink. It’s usually associated as a by-product from tornadoes. They are so beautiful I just had to share them. Check out his website :-)
The rising sun spreads it's warm rays of light across the sky and on the land.
This image was taken from the summit of Sitting Bear Mountain in the Linville Gorge on a trip with my good friends Keith Clontz and Dale King.
