A storm system on the horizon during what Kay said was a wild weather day for the entire coast, with high surf warnings and unseasonably warm temperatures. A great place for cloudspotting, as Kay and her friend, another CAS member, Helen Shorten, were adding clouds into Kay's Cloud Collector Handbook, as spotted near Tilba Tilba on the south coast of New South Wales, Australia
A unique view from 1971, wherein Mary's husband took this photograph while on a plane near Mt. Fuji, with the mountain showing itself above a layer of stratocumulus clouds, along with cirrus clouds further above in the troposphere. Mary took a picture of the slide through the lens of an old projector, in order to preserve this view of Mt. Fuji (Fujisan), Honshu, Japan.
