Hope you get to see a "glow" they are so awesome!! A beautiful capture~ #10421872

Wow....what is REALLY AMAZING to me is your capture of the lenticular cloud over the foreground mountain. If I ever saw one, I'd probably faint. #10422498

Thank you Thomas, Tammy and Michelle...Those are amazing clouds when you see them....especially ones that expand as far as this one did....sometimes they also pile real high up in the sky....beautiful sight! Have a great day ahead.... #10423860

That is clearly the mother ship in that cloud being cloaked! Ha!

(Too much Star Trek TNG for me, Patricia!)

We live at over 4,000 ft at my house and are literally in the clouds at times. It's amazing up here in the nose bleed seats! (But I prefer it from your level there! What a view!)

I know....doesn't it remind you of the Ray Bradbury story..."Something Wicked this Way Comes"....Cool book! They're not as scary as tornado clouds though....they just look mean....or in this case I was abducted for a few hours.....(LOL) Have a great remains of the day Laura and a terrific week ahead! #10424395

Fabulous capture of the mountains and clouds Patricia. We don't see too many lenticular clouds on the east coast. This is really cool! #10425283

Those folks in the foreground were staring at me as they walked in front....I did have my tripod that night for evening glow...which didn't happen for the obvious reason....I love Lennies....so mysterious looking, but actually quite harmless compared to the Thunderheads and Tornado spouts..... #10425297

Wow! Fabulous, Patricia! #10426910

Stunning view of those massive storm clouds with the tiny ant-people under them, Patricia. "Evening Glow" will come and go and come again, but this is a one-time-only scene. Terrific capture!
Enjoy your day! #10451928

Thank you Nadia...yes it was a stunning cloud series! #10458712

Debra R. Harder December 26, 2012

Love that sky, Patricia! Nothing better than moody storm clouds in the horizon. The light is beautiful!!!! #10479350

Amazing that this received so much acknowledgement from my fellow BPrs...and not even an Editor's Pick....Oh well...luck of the draw....I only wish I could get some feedback on the two storm/cloud photos from the judges....I liked these two a lot...and still do...guess all that really matters in the long run...thank you so much for your kind words, too, Debra!!! #10479622
