The excitement is understandable, Gainor. You were indeed lucky! These K-H formations are such a tease. By the time one parks the car, they’re already waving bye-bye as in the image below, caught just a couple of days ago. I look forward to seeing your painting — a great way to continue celebrating your sighting.
Thank you for sharing this series of visual wonderment, Hans. While I can offer no insight on classification, I must say these images are beautifully haunting. Michael’s “in transition” approach to this puzzlement has a lot of appeal and seems most reasonable. That said, I don’t know if you will find some similarity in the cloud forms shown on the Gallery in an image titled “A sunset over Owens Valley, California, US” by Stephen Ingram, posted March 9, 2018. I think only you will be able to judge. So come in from the f-f-freeezing ch-ch-chill, warm up well… and get back out there! Everyone know you can’t keep such a devoted cloud spotter indoors for long.
Love the dramatic plunge of your waterfall, Hans. While Michael, your #89 feels like a breath released below the surface. So much action – and great show of Madness!
Not sure what to call the image below. I just keep…
Looking Into ItA splendid interpretation, George (the F Cleff). Of course! Writ on the wind.
And how lucky, Ramona, to witness the waves of K-H/Fluctus and to be ready with camera at hand.
And Hans, your sky in They Seem To Think About It is definitely pensive, like a cross-current pond of rippling wonderment. Lovely!
Below, it is too late to think about it.
Whitewater WipeoutThank you for kind comments, Hans and Ramona. And Michael, what a zinger you’ve captured in Arizona Monsooner #51! Those dwarfed details below the cloudscape put its vastness into jaw dropping perspective.
And as Bad Tempered as your cloud creature above may appear, Hans, I suspect a visit from the little winged wonder below will put things right in no time. I will send him across the pond.
Bluebird of HappinessFabulous photos, George, Michael and Hans. Traveling the skies can be such an adventure…
Where Are We?Hans, Iriscopy is like a view of what is always there but cannot be seen without a moment of stillness. While I cannot contribute a “corona” to this thread, here is a little something to add to the celebration.
TiaraA resplendent image, Ramona! You bring new meaning to “an eye for an eye” as you certainly have an eye for beauty. And it’s as if the Eye in the sky were looking at you as well!
The growing membership of CAS is indeed something to celebrate, Laurence. And I can see by the announcement sent out this past week, they’ve already added another 100+ to the number posted on their website. It’s bound to increase, of course, and will likely make a huge leap with Gavin giving talks at three venues in California (Pacifica, Santa Rosa, and Tiburon) as well as Portland, Oregon and Boulder Colorado next month. It will be a true delight and honor to meet him and have a chance to thank him in person for all the joy of looking up he inspires.
What a beautiful dog, Eric! I believe you’ve captured a very playful spirit there. And Hans, what a gorgeous corona posted on the Gallery yesterday. Congratulations! Most recently, this late afternoon 22˚ made my toes wiggle in delight.
The following day, an even bigger delight arrived in the form of announcement that Gavin will be coming to California (also Oregon and Colorado) for a series of talks! One venue is near enough that I’ll be able to attend and thank him in person for all he has done to bring us CAS and the forums that make toes wiggle worldwide.
Perfectly poached, Hans! And it looks like Michael has whipped up something delicious for us as well with Arizona B&W #25.
I love the feeling Tranquility brings. And after a calm breath, is it time for more action? The drama of the dance below is quite enough I think. No animals were injured in the making of this image.
The Matador’s CapeWOW! and WOW! Some Play With Colors and Contrail Madness are simply fantastic, Hans! The B&Ws above them are also splendid. You have really ignited this thread with these beauties. Below is one that cannot compete, more like a little fizzle, but still fun to share.

Can a wave pose a question?
