There are some views that are just begging to be photogrphed. Places where you'd like to just wander off, wild camp, and spend days exploring. Unfortunately you don't have the time and have to settle for a couple of shots from the roadside.
View looking East with Lake Mark Kramer on the right side.
The rain chances for the day were very low and so I didn’t hesitate to push away from the dock on this fine morning and head out to my favorite location and search for some signs of birds. The clouds off in the distance did light up nicely as the sun broke over the horizon and the colors in it were quite intense and the reflection didn’t look half bad either. I continued to paddle toward Horsepen Bayou and fired off a number of shots while still near Bay Area Park. This is still a part of Armand Bayou at this point (scene with the bow of the canoe in it) and it will join Horsepen bayou as I round the bend to the right and become Lake Mark Kramer. After I arrived at Lake Mark Kramer I looked back toward the sun and things looked somewhat nice with the rays streaming skyward. The view to the south and toward Horsepen Bayou wasn’t as promising and it was a good time to see if that parka was still in the dry bag. Might be a good time to drag out that parka and get ready for the rain that was about to arrive. The rain lasted for a few minutes as the huge cloud drifted to the north and off into the distance. Nothing more than a shower, but I did like the way the cloud lit up in the early morning light. Photos taken on Armand Bayou.

Nice example of altocumulus and cirrocumulus clouds at midday. All these clouds dissipated within 20 minutes.

Jersey City, New Jersey looking North towards Hoboken, New Jersey and New York City (NYC).
HDR 4 exposures (Photomatix 3.1)
Please view on black and large:
Normally, when these clouds form just after sunrise, they are altocumulus. Well this morning they are the higher variety (cirrocumulus).
Another quick shot taken yesterday. Somehow too busy to shoot at the moment. Enjoy the last bits of autumn sky, winter is coming (YES!).
Sorry for the bad quality, it was uploaded with a jpeg quality of 60% only, so you may realize the ugly artefacts in the upper left corner.
Came back this afternoon to discover a wonderful view during low tide at this quiet spot – thankful.

FROntal PAssage at 4PM saw the temperature drop 19 degrees over the next hour as winds shifted from west to north. This cloudless front (from the north) developed this interesting cloud pattern once it moved through and interacted with a strong southwesterly flow aloft.
Some colourful sunset clouds over Mt Barker, South Australia on 17/8/2025.
The sun is setting out of the frame to the far right.
I don't know what those white streaks are coming down. There was small hail forecast for that day. Possibly?
