Watching this cloud formation move and rotate across the sky as the sun set, changing colour every minute or so, Chandra found this time looking upward over her Aunt's farm to be time well spent, near Scott Creek, South Australia, Australia.

Most unusual cloud roll. I like the left side of it with the “jets of smoke” looking like exhaust from the roll. Thanks for the photo, Petra.

Definitely looks like a change in the weather and a chance of rain that afternoon out in the Scottish countryside. Dramatic cloud formation that looks a bit like an eel swimming up in the air. Good shot. From Rebecca Hill, Canberra, Australia
