Sky scenes

[Ron Scott]

Great picture!

[Magicman]

This was an unusual sight.


 
It was late in the evening and there was this one single cloud with the setting sun shining through the fringes.

[Jeff]

The proverbial silver lining cloud.

[Raider Bill]

Here's one from the Billarosa looking out on the smoky mountains


 

And here's one taken off Clearwater Beach of a summer storm going by.


 

I have the best of both worlds!

[Roxie]

Yes you do!  I gotta admit that the Smokey Mountains get to me though.   

[Den Socling]

It's too bad there wasn't a telescope there but there is a picture on the internet of the Martian sky. In it, you can see the earth glowing like a star. The article said that if you were standing there, you could see the earth and our moon. Pretty cool stuff.

[NWP]

 

I took this with my phone when I left the house this morning. Hopefully it's a decent quality picture, it's hard to tell on my phone.

[thecfarm]

NWP.that picture will do just fine.

[thecfarm]

Both of these are right out my front door.
One in July,



 

One in August

The picture doesn't do justice to how silky the clouds looked. 

  

  

  
Pillars of creation!  I was mowing grass and looked up to see this.  I knew it looked familiar.  Uncanny resemblance to the largest of the pillars of creation.   


  
Probably the best rainbow I've ever seen.  Was a little bit darker a few minutes earlier.


  

 

[thecfarm]

I just saw a rainbow too. The other end went behind the trees.

[Bibbyman]

When I look at the art that's nature provides,  I wonder how mere humans could create anything more spectacular.   The other day I came through a small field that was yellow with flowers I think are black eyed susans.   I took a picture but it didn't capture the sight.  Almost ever time of the year there are flowers in the woods and fields.

[Raider Bill]

These are from yesterday afternoons rain storm in this area.  Dang powerful. I did not take these.


  

  

  

  

 

[WmFritz]

I would not want to get caught in a boat with a sky like those, Bill. Those last couple have a kind of an alien look to them... especially the last one.

[Roxie]

If I saw clouds like that, I'd get outta Dodge!   smiley_horserider

[Raider Bill]

That happens just about everyday here during the summer. They pop up, dump a couple inches of rain in a few minutes then disappear.

[Raider Bill]

We were out riding Saturday evening and took these. I was trying to outrun the rain coming from behind us. Took these from the top of a bridge. My photographer was a little shaky :D


  

 

[Jeff]

A couple shots of opposite sides of caribou lake this evening. This is about a half mile from here at the cabin.

An "upside down" picture that I took in Alberta, Canada two weeks ago.

Good question!  Great picture!
