Spectacular cloud display seen from the Weather Station Observatory on Mikazuki-yama, Chichi-jima (in the Ogasawara Islands chain, Tokyo Prefecture).

 

The original showed a slight distortion (concave horizon). I considered removing it, but then opted for actually increasing it a bit to add some dynamics to the scene.

 

Camera: Canon PowerShot G12.

Edited with Adobe Photoshop.

As is the norm for June the bright sunny day was eventually to change to a stormy one. It takes time for the clouds to build but eventually they turn black and you know you need to get inside at the double!

 

Note the large Buddha head on the opposite shore...

There was no sun but some good clouds to be seen on our recent walk along the beach at West WIttering.

Kinderdijk is well known for its numerous windmills. In the Netherlands, the drainage system is an important matter. The Dutch need a large drainage system in order to keep the inhabitants from drowning, because some parts of the Netherlands are below sea level. In the Alblasserwaard, problems with water became more and more apparent in the 13th century. The Dutch dug large canals to get rid of the excess water in the polders. These canals are called "weteringen", and they can still be found all over the country. However, this method was sufficient only for a short period of time. The ground started to lower again because of its structure and the level of the river began to rise at the same time. An additional way of maintaining the level of the water in the polders was required. The Dutch decided to build a series of windmills. The windmills would pump water into a reservoir until the level of the river had reached a certain level, in which pumping water into the river was made possible again. Gaining full control over the water was never possible. In the past, the residents of the Netherlands suffered from many severe floods.

A puzzling sky. The almost linear clouds suggest the remnants of contrails except their direction was not that of air routes. Another cluster in the distance. 'Likely' Altocumulus radiatus. Above these intermediate levels clouds was cirrus that generated fragments of a 22 degree halo.

I always enjoy watching the clouds go by. Such interesting designs.

Return Flight from Costa Rica.

Had a hard time leaving Texas because the clouds this morning had me mesmerized. I kept stopping and taking pictures as the greatest Artist/Creator of all showed off with a constantly changing cloudscape. This was down along the border on US-90, not much in the way of landscape, but who needs landscapes when the heavens play.

 

I've got some other interesting shots from this morning I'll be posting from time to time.

 

Here a link about this type of cloud formation, Thanks again Alex M

 

Undulatus asperatus: A new category of cloud.

CN development on outflow/frontal boundary in south central Illinois.

Bajo un cielo dramático y tormentoso, la iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Týn se alza majestuosa sobre la Plaza de la Ciudad Vieja de Praga. Sus agujas góticas, oscuras y afiladas, parecen perforar las nubes, evocando el misterio y la espiritualidad medieval. Una escena que captura la esencia mágica de la capital checa.
