George..I just caught myself thinking, ” who in their right mind would go to the coldest windiest place to be a weatherman?”. I live where it gets 121f during the summer along with 2 to 3months of monsoon . Yet, when with camera , all that is forgotten. Weather can make you forget about the weather.
Hans..IMHO you have photographed Asperitas. Majority of photos of Asperitas are of the perspective from below;The wave rolls seen from below. You have photos of..what I will guess as .smaller manifestations at an opportune distance that shows the lower level of wave but also the action going on above the wave..horizontal and vertical. I have been fortunate enough to witness the same. I have a shot in the Gallery taken early in the A.M. where I captured the wave below with the aspirated above. It seems to me..the wild columns of cloud indicate the upward flow of air that creates the waves. Lots of energy involved with Asperitas.
A shot of a bit more calmer..

Hans,Its good to see the attention paid to clouds above ,paying off. Parhelic Circles are rare in these parts. I witnessed such a show over year ago from my backyard and felt very special seeing and photographing it. Nobody else in Phoenix seemed to see it..! Timing is everything and Your Timing was perfect. Congrats!
Keelin , heres a look up into a cloud hole , with a hint of Anywhere in the distance
Took another look at the days shoot, 152 pictures taken of the lacunosus event. And yes, way more taken in Black and White than I recalled. Thats a problem when a cloud event waltzes thru the sky. It can be so dramatic that it stuns the brain. I’ve learned to let a shoot rest for a while then revisit the photos with a fresh perspective. So, below are some of the best Black and White Shots I took of The Lacunosus Event.
Lewis Carrol Had His Rabbit Holes So I Suppose Cloud Appreciators Have Their Cloud Holes,,That Go Up Instead of Down. Of Course, to Photograph Them ,Is To Never Be Too Late.
Keelin..Your identity shot reminds of the Oriental illustration Art .. sumi-e..Nice!
Here is some Thick and Delicate
Thanks All for your kind words..If I recall corrctly lacunosus is actually cold air falling..which mite explain our rather cool June in the desert Keelin.Some day I will process these in B&W just to see what happens Hans. But for now ,being rendered naturally as an work of Mother Nature connects for me. George,Bee hives may be more disciplined and electron microscope shots of bone material are not widely viewed but there are two natural phenomena that could resemble lacunosus. I’m thinking even cell structure of some kinds of plants as well as..on the greatest scale we have…the structure of the universe..might resemble lacunosus..!!
George..I enjoyed that a lot..Neat movement along with color shifts and crepuscular made for fun. Thanks for sharing.
Canon is pre releasing orders taking ,for their new 6D Markll. Its moving taking abilities now includes Time Lapse…! My current 6D is showing its age. Along with a few other improvements, focus, increased resolution ( up to 26MB Cmos now) the built in Time lapse may be the tipping point for me . Supposedly will start shipping at end of July. I await a few more reviews..
