clouds

Saint Michael's Mount, in Cornwall (UK), is a beautiful and extremely photogenic island, and one that contrarily to its more famous French homonym gets completely isolated at high tide. While normally photographed with its iconic causeway from close, I also love to portray it from the distance...

Our Focus this Friday is on Cloudscapes. That means your photo can only contain clouds. If you had land in it, crop it out.... :) We want to just focus on the beauty and majesty of clouds. I will post one I just took on Thursday night in Greeley as one of my granddaughters was finishing up her...

I just posted an earlier version of this in Landscape, but figured I should spread the love to this neglected forum. Taken with my Mavic Pro 2 this pano was made from 8 frames (two rows of four) each frame made from a burst of 5 that are stacked and median blended to deal with noise. This one is...

Another drone view from above my house, note Mt. Rainier behind. I'd moved this folder off my lap-top into an external drive to make room for more pictures and forgot about it until yesterday. On another note I just sold my first drone shot to a neighbor down at the lake who saw one I posted on...

Paradise creek valley curves below the distant mountains. We were on our way back to Paradise after a day of back-country skiing on the Cowlitz Glacier.

Another singular tree, although hard to tell if it's more than one.

I've been back-country skiing with Eric for almost 30 years now. I think this is one of the best environmental portraits I've gotten of him in his element. Taken on the Cowlitz Glacier on Mt. Rainier last week. The summer corn snow was perfect - firm base, with fast slightly slushy corn surface...

The Temple of the Sun and Moon are the most famous Temples in Capitol Reef, but they are not the only ones. Ben wanted to take us up to the north end of Cathedral Valley and show us some places he liked there. We had a fun day of discovery as we drove dusty roads. This was at one stop. We had an...

I took a quick trip up Thursday evening, just to visit an old friend. I remember why I don't go up there much in the summer, campers everywhere.

Gorgeous evening with spectator clouds.

From Hwy 20 in the north Cascades.

Yesterday I went out for a run when I got home from work. I saw some big clouds. I had a feeling that as the sun set these clouds would put on a show. So, I ran out the door very close to sunset after eating dinner and basically ran down the street to see this beautiful sunset! CC welcome! a...

We were in a bit of a hurry late in the day to hike back up to the rim for dinner so I wasn't going to stop for many pictures. Luckily I turned around and looked back to catch this, which I shot as a pano with my A7rII and 24-105mm. After Jim Fox's suggestion I went back to another pano I...
