Hi Keelin, Lots of sky to photograph around here and I am always looking at the sky. A continual amazement. The above photo looks like a black and white one but I didn’t make it black and white. That is how it came out as the sky was gray and cloudy. I love to watch the clouds swirling and making such interesting formations. I used to call these “bubble clouds” until I learned the real name.
We had a severe thunderstorm and then the sky at sunset was quite spectacular with mammatus clouds bubbling up across the sky. Looked magical. I took this photo and the one below on March 8, 2016 over our area. Photos are not enhanced as I don’t know how to do that. I use a Canon Power Shot SX510 HS on auto.
What a nice photo Keelin! “Blue Splash” is a good name for it. Looks like you were getting some stormy weather rolling in or out. And it almost looks like mammatus clouds were trying to form. In the photo below a thunderstorm was approaching. Photo taken March 26, 2017 over our farm. Mammatus clouds usually form either before or after severe weather. We get enough of that here in Arkansas.
What an impressive cloud cover with the various colors. Isn’t this an example of the asperatus undulatus cloud type? Reminds me of some kind of webbing over the sky. Here’s one I took over our area, Arkansas, in April 2017.
Distant travelers? I like how you described what I think you mean, the little Kelvin-Helmholtz clouds. At least I think that’s what they are. I’m always looking for this cloud formation ever since I saw them for the first time over our farm in 2012. I couldn’t stop taking photos of them! Wonderful.
