Reflections of cumulus on a walk by the bay, which Monica described being not long after a major downpour, so there was much sogginess and sludge underfoot, but the view made up for it, near Berkeley, California, US.

Remnants of a contrail against the clear sky of daylight, versus what could have initially been perceived to be noctilucent, yet the latter is seen within the night sky (Latin for "night-shining"). This view of the sky was spotted over Beijing, China.

On board an airplane departing the Charlotte area, Haruko conveyed that there were tornado warnings in the area on this day. From what it appears, the cloud column that is reaching the ground shows signs that it might have been a brief tornado touchdown near Charlotte, North Carolina, US.

What an evocative sight!
I live not far from Woodford Airfield in Cheshire where I had the privilege of seeing the Memorial Fight at an air show, and it is indeed a very stirring sight to see these beautiful old aircraft still flying. So, thanks Ian!
Sadly the shows air show is no longer held at Woodford…. :o(
Thanks for comments, so glad you like the image, the flypast was just amazing to witness, there is no sound like it..I was in a great vantage point in the tower of The Old Hall Gainsborough….IanL..

I echo the previous comments. It is really lovely to see the RAF’s Battle of Britain Memeorial Flight’s Avro Lancaster, PA474, in flight over a so typical English scene. Well seen, Ian, and my many grateful thanks for this photo. I am sure it will give much pleasure to other viewers.
