    This was a Aperitas event so I’m going with Asperitas Undulatus but it seems way to well organized  for Asperitas..??

    My goodness, nubbins is an actual word..Long ago somebody gave that as a nick name of a friend. Since then I thought it was slang..Got me there Keelin. Anyway, I’m drawn to the black “star”  by the white linears.

    Thanks hans and keelin! The green flash is believed to be the tale tell sign of Hail. I say flash but the faint emerald green lasted more than a flash. Looking at my  photos  timing it looks close to a minute that I photographed knowingly  of the green. Green showed up in a few other shots in different areas of the storm as well. Below is a shot ( no green) of the clouds going Nimbus.

    Yes Keelin I like the contrasts there in F&F..Very active for the mind…That is fun.

    I see clouds as having infinite potential. I try to free up my vision to see potentials and if I do see interesting developing, to take the shot with a fair amount of trust that nature will be evident. So it is with positive and negative space balancing especially in B&W.By taking tons of pictures a photographer develops that eye for interesting along with a knowledge of balancing the positive and negative space . Directing the eye thru a photo is almost an automatic for me. I still like to experiment. The shot below , I play with the positive and negative a bit, interchange their roles for some fun. Again, clouds seem to afford  for a lot of experiment and reversal of  norms.  From one moment to the next a cloud can be dark and then bright.
