May I offer the observation that the cloud formation in the top photo is quite an unusual type called mammatus. I have only seen it a couple of time before. It's name is obviously to do with 'milk' and derives from the structures looking like cow's mammary glands hanging down.
ReplyDeleteUsually it immediately precedes a thunderstorm and caused by cold down drafts of air within the cumulo-nimbus cell.
May I copy it?
I love a good thunderstorm with lots of rain. Unfortunately we're still having snow here in Minnesota!

Gorgeous as always. I love budding thunderstorms. Some kind of energy in the air.
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!
ReplyDeleteMerisi.......I love the fourth picture. You can almost smell the rain and the moist earth. ~Allie

As always, wonderful. I especially love how you've captured the birds.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sequence of patterns and silouettes.
ReplyDeleteGeez - Maalie sure knows his clouds!
ReplyDeletePersonally, I think it looks like Persian fairy floss.
I really like the third photo.
All those rows and rows of sticks.
I love a grape field (vineyard sounds too posh).
Wow, these are stunning photos
