Brilliant shot, Hallie! Marvellous capture! It must have been a wonderful sight to behold in real life.

You have captured a rather rare cloud. lucky you!

Hi Peter
2nd attempt! There seems to be trouble with the CAS Photo Gallery website.

Thanks for posting this photo of Mammatus clouds over the City of Bristol. I live in Yate, some 11 miles NE of the city and witnessed these clouds, clouds of the type I have not seen for donkey-years.

BBC Weather Watchers posted some photos here which supplement your photo-

Very dramatic sky, Christina! The dark sky in the distance, with the sun shining on it certainly looks threatening, already to produce an afternoon late-autumn thunderstorm soon and highlights the long, straight city streets and business district in the foreground! Hope that you weren’t caught out when the storm did eventually come! Run for cover! Rebecca Hill, Canberra, Australia

Christina, thanks for this dramatic shot!

I like the glowering skies, all moody and forbidding, and prophetic of heavy rain to come. I also like the stark of the sunlight, soon to come to end, in the foreground.

We had something like this here in Yate, south Gloucestershire, UK,yesterday. Huge mammatus clouds which delivered big rain. The skies were as dark as the one your photo portrayed.

A nice monochrome serene reflection of the beautiful mountain scenery, mist and sunset at the end of another long day! What will tomorrow bring? Rebecca Hill, Canberra, Australia
