Hans StockerParticipantThank you Keelin. And I forgot to answer a question from George. I was hunting and hoping for a CHA because I saw the conditions were there: high sun and some cirrus although not much and most of the time not drifting to the place were they might form an arc. Former years I had no success but now also the crystals were the right ones when they finally found the right place in the sky. Yes all toes awiggle:)
Hans StockerParticipantIt was great George and I certainly have a wider view. I even saw it develop and also disappear within about three quarters of an hour. I intend to post one for the gallery, but that has to wait until the problems with the gallery are solved. There were some updates of the site this week but seemingly not sufficient yet to solve the problem. Meanwhile I can post some of the close ups on the forum. Some play with LR gives extra fun, but that is not meant for the gallery. To be continued.
Hans StockerParticipantYes Michael, this is the characteristic wavelike structure I like so much of asperitas.

Hans StockerParticipantHaha! Ever heard about the famous Gaelic bard Assourancetourix, maybe also known as Kakofonix? It must have been him.
I mentioned them elsewhere….

Talking Heads
Hans StockerParticipantIn the Nebraska Asperitas thread I read about the excitement of seeing a surprise in the sky. I had that experience two days ago seeing my first Circumhorizontal arc. It is a rare phenomenon over here for it is only two month in the year for just the midday hours that the sun is high enough to enable the appearance.

Hans StockerParticipantWhat if is a beauty Keelin. It has the feel of giant but very distant waves. For some unconscious reason it reminded me of a song by the Talking Heads, the Overload:
The gentle collapsing
Of every surface
We travel on the quiet road
The overload
Hans StockerParticipantI love the flowering pattern of B&W#126 Michael. Beware that it won’t be eaten by some bypassing goat that has developed the habit of hopping from one side of the pond to the other.
I saw your thin Asperitas on the color thread. From this side of the pond one in B&W just a few days ago.

Hans StockerParticipantI had to rub my eyes for this one, Keelin. Very funny! This karaoke bar must have very strange customers. Nevertheless I would love to join them with a long neck beer. My singing will be terrible and the fun will be the contrary.
Hans StockerParticipantYes Keelin, great texture in #125 again and you yourself caught it it as well in Eyes Touching Skies.
Love the thought of seeing like the fingertips feel Michael. I take that thought serious, but next one is too nice to leave unused……

Hans StockerParticipantVery nice Sea of Unknowing Keelin. Where do you find these words? Love it. Enchanting and mystical for sure. To answer your question: probably they won’t get there, but….
We’re all in the same boat ready to float off the edge of the world
The flat old world.Yes again a quotation from the Band, from Life is a Carnival.

Look! The boat is approaching the Edge-Of-The-World.

Hans StockerParticipantI love the different textures of Sticky Stuff, Arizona B&W#123 and #124, Michael and Keelin. The three pictures show a great variety in texture and each has its own appeal.
