  • there are cool clouds, all over the world, you just have to know where to look...
  • Oh man these clouds are so cool looking, I wish I could look out my window and see one of them right now.
  • Very cool. I've seen those mammatus clouds before and I admit I did think that they were indications of tornado activity. Well, now I guess I can just enjoy them in peace. :-) I'd love to witness some of those other cloud formations.

  • Check out the Cloud Appreciation Society if you're into cloud formations - teaches you to take the time to appreciate such everyday natural wonders.

  • Once when I was travelling to Dublin, I swear the whole journey, every cloud was in the shape of a boot.

    and before you say it, No i wasn't high, I was 11, a couple of years too early for that.

    Those Shelf clouds are ominous...

  • These images were absolutely beautiful. My favorite would have to be the roll clouds. They remind me of a Hollywood tidal wave devouring the earth.

    wicked pics.

  • Very cool clouds. I remember driving into a fog bank that looked as though it was swallowing everything in it's path - it was so dense.

  • The clouds that look like droplets of ice cream are funky weird. I'd see that I'd laugh.

    Cool pictures and I agree, great to see in the mist of the bad news about rotten people.

  • Lenticular clouds are pretty common sight here in Central Oregon.

  • Clouds are simply too beautiful to be true. They're so free and relaxed, always changing and always moving.

    Forgive the cheesiness but I just have a thing for clouds. They're just cool. Spending hours under a blue sky staring at fluffy white clouds is one of my favourite things to do. Try it sometime.

  • Mother nature is and always will be a powerful and beautiful thing. Pictures like these remind you why life is so precious... as cheesy as that may sound!

  • And those nacreous clouds look like something out of Van Gogh's mind.
    KateLove
  • wow.. it's like Mother Nature took over and sculpted the clouds like they were clay... Really beautiful pictures, btw. I wish I'd have the chance to see any 10 of the cloud types. I guess I'm not from the lucky crowd then, huh? lol

  • This was awesome. Nature is amazing. I wish that today I was able to see clouds where I live in the Bay Area of California, but there is too much smoke...800 wildfires...too much smoke.
