Merry Christmas!, Happy Holidays! Season’s Greeting! and a Happy and Joyous New Years To You Gini and All Of Cloud Appreciation Society!
CHEERS!
Thank you Gini. The 19th’s weather was apparently all over the place. These pictures indicate a rapidly moving system passed overhead. So there is a feel of a fully expressive sky to this thread..eventually, hopefully.
An easy wave cloud , Surfs Up!
Recent YouTube visit reminded me of an old favorite, BeBopDeluxe and their “Panic In The World”
Some Paul Klee Influence on this one
Dan..My understanding is that we are allowed to store 20 pics in our album. So..to show a new one..we have to delete an old one ,,from the album. I had not thought of using Flickr as a album. Good Idea! Thanks!
Mike..I recall that the green has to do with charged electrons,,something about ” fluoresce” . I ve seen ” green” in clouds numerous times and thankfully none got as dramatic as a tornado, but the skies involved were at least turbulent. I recall being told when I was a youngster,”green sky seek shelter.” Below is a shot of a wave cloud created by a collapsing nimbus tower. The rolling cloud came back into the Valley with high speed and if you look carefully,,a green tint
Nice metaphorical photograph,,as if any of us knew what we were going to do and be with life when we were 14; traipsing the rocks when in the water is where we’re supposed to be.
Yes Gini!, there is a serendipity to it that gladdens the spirit. Thats one way to put it anyway, but im happy to have touched that mystery with the photo.
Below is one that uses much less contrast or rather explores ” that mystery” by the way of many gray tones, or subtlety of gray tones. Like you Gini, this one moves me and I don’t kno why or how.
H, Thanks H for this Post. Mr Laninga’s work is clearly exemplary. I’m very glad that in real life the monsoon events don’t move and behave quite as fast as Laninga’s time lapse makes it appear. Hinted at thru-out his work is what all the monsoon beauty in motion can produce,,or the consequences of such natural energy. I’ve attached below a recent example of what a monsoon micro-burst miles away in the desert, can produce, a haboo or dust storm. A new social phenom lets me know when one of these is headin my way. Everybody at work has ” weather alerts” on their IPhones. So when the entire production floor erupts with the bells and whistles of a nasty weather alert, thats my que to get out there and take pictures…while I can.
