September 18th - cumulonimbus incus

This cumulonimbus incus cloud, dramatically lit by the setting sun looks as though it is lit from the inside somehow.


A cumulonimbus incus (Latin incus, "anvil") is a cumulonimbus cloud which has reached the level of stratospheric stability and has formed the characteristic flat, anvil-top shape. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumulonimbus_incus)
