Gregory VenarskyParticipantHello everyone!
Sorry it’s been a while again. But once again, busy-ness has taken over my life. I am now in college(yay!!!!!!!). I’ve only been here one week and so naturally I am still adjusting but today I went north for a day-trip and saw an absolutely beautiful sunset. Look forward to posting it and chatting once again!

September 6, 2022 at 8:04 pm #546466
Patricia L KeelinParticipantOh so many beauties added here over the last few weeks, including some absolute favorites like Michael’s #1305, This Got Me Up Early by Ruth, and Wild Sky by Hans — all spirit lifting.
After yesterday’s scorching 113˚, I was surprised to find a cloud-dappled morning sky. All quickly eaten up by the rising sun. Still, at 112˚ expected today, it’s…

Hot Enough To Pop Corn
PS: Looking forward to your sunset shot, Greg. And all best to you with the new adventure of college life!

Michael LerchParticipantKeelin, One of the things about the Big Sky is you can see rain coming well before it arrives..and how much you mite get as well. I can shoot distant subjects with good zoom lens so itz raining but always a few miles from me.

October 18, 2022 at 5:33 am #551948
Michael LerchParticipantAlways Keelin. Sure there are times when the first drop lands and its always on the bald spot where most sensitive nerve endings are mysteriously placed..the needle sharp cold drop of rain,its time to go. After a few of them I got smart..wear a cap. #1321 I caught condensing right out of the atmosphere. The heat dome sends the air high into the cold atmosphere and voila!We had some strange weather usually formed in other parts of the continent over this weekend including a spotting of a tornado down in Chandler, east valley, ..determined to be a landspout or as i put it, i’ve seen seriously sun devils but this one is Mephistopheles himself. Anyway here is the north central view of the shelf cloud and coming hail.

Hans, I’ve seen something similar to your Purple clouds, but they’ve only become airborne when I’ve dusted ’neath the sofa. Now I see where they rightly belong to claim their real beauty!

Oh, where is my rain hat?
-
November 11, 2022 at 9:34 pm #554238
Ruth QuistParticipantMichael, #1325 seems like that could be submerged in water. Very cool. Oh, put #1326 in the water too. Sea Horses.
Hans, I’m agreeing with Keelin, could be my dust bunnies. Great shade of purple.
Keelin, way moody photo. May be the Moody Blues.

Hans StockerParticipantI had to laugh about the reactions on my “Purple But No Rain”. The replies made me dust my archive where I got it from, but I don’t think it will help anymore.
I hope you found your rain hat in time Keelin and Michael seems to be in need of one too watching this shelf cloud approaching. Ruth will be safe Staying On Land. A lovely wide view!

Hans StockerParticipantRuth your Ocean Color is intriguing with the tender patch of pinks in a mostly grey seascape. Love it as “Reaching back to an early winter morning.”. Great gloomy atmosphere with the dark trees and the contrasting rays of light.
Michael I simply can’t mention all your marvelous compositions, but #1346 is a very special one.
Keelin, you always surprise me and now it is with Nest Egg. Great composition and atmosphere. I had to shed a tear for poor old Icarus btw.
