Cloudscapes

Someone will correct me

This is a follow on from my earlier lighthouse shot. The clouds were stunning on that day, really beautiful! The lighthouse is in the distance. Worth a look in Lightbox.

I visited the RHS garden at Hyde Hall, Essex and was rewarded by finding this fine vista. 15 minutes later it had fully clouded over and the heavens opened.

We had almost no decent storms to photograph this summer so I found this one from the archive.

This was the scene the other day when I arrived up atop Battery 129 with friends MattyD90 and Chip Shotz (links to the right). Having met and abandoned the newly-reopened Palace of Fine Arts like a losing lottery ticket after I explained the way the fog was ( because I had spent an hour up there before the meet-up), there was absolutely no argument about where we all wanted to go.

The scene was one of a thousand cars and photographers and one woman with an extremely bright flash, although not strong enough to illuminate the city where it was being pointed, blinded me for a minute as I looked at the front of my lens to check for fogging. But, that's to be expected.

More importantly, I think many people had a really uplifting experience that day, due to the natural, as well as artificial, beauty and charm of the sights. I know the three of us did.

Thanks for looking!

Yesterday afternoon, we went out and it was still very hot. I took the photo with my Nikon D800E AND THE 60MM F/2.8 MACRO LENS. THANKS TO THOSE WHO VIEW, COMMENT AND FAVE MY PHOTOS.

Cloudscape

Now, with a little help from Michael Lawlor - THX -, I think those clouds are undulatus asperatus aka asperitas. Anyway, it was a fascinating spectacle with skies like a mixture of snowdrifts and puff pastry, and at the end with a brilliant cloudburst.
