These mid - level clouds provide a foreground for the towering cumulonimbus pincer of this giant scorpion.

August 19th - Blasting for Uranium?
This explosion was a cloud although it looked a lot like smoke... It was amazing to watch it "bloom" over the course of about 10 minutes.

August 18th - Whirling Dervish
From horizon to directly overhead this whirling dervish seemed to be consuming the sky...

August 15th - Big Big Sky
Of all the sky photos I have taken over the last year, I have always come away thinking there was no way to show the total awesome grandeur that is the big picture. This photo is an attempt at that - it is actually 4 photos combined together to create this huge cloudscape.

August 3rd - Last One!!!
For my 365th blog post I thought it would be appropriate to leave this blank sky canvas as an invitation for all you cloud-lovers out there. Pick up your camera, and pick up the ball! Keep your eye on the sky - God is reflected there!

Molten lava flows down the side of this distant volcano turning the sea into steam!

August 1st - Turmoil in the sky!
It's hard to tell if you're being lifted up into a whirlwind, or circling down the drain when looking at this intense summer storm cloud!

Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Ares, Hermes and maybe more - I can see their faces looking down on us!

July 28th - Lucky Strike
Just happened to snap this photo at the right moment - it usually takes several hundred shots to get a strike like this!

July 26th - Afloat on a Sea of Glow
Okay so it sounds hokey, but the light from this sunset was so rich it seemed possible that these cloud puffs were actually floating in it!

July 24th - Mount Rushmore Sky
This Jetliner is dwarfed by the Monumental Cloud Sculpture behind it - Gutzon Borglum would be in awe!

Tropical Storm Bonnie made for a pleasant breezy morning, but you could see her approaching on the horizon...

July 19th - Vanilla Sky
This could be the soft serve cone to die for - and as my dad always said, the only real flavor is vanilla!

July 17th - Lullaby Sky
Baby's boat's a silver moon sailing o'er the sky,
Sailing on a sea of dreams as the stars float by...

July 15th - Avalanche!
The way these secondary clouds flow over the top of this thunderhead reminded me of the way powder might rise from a thundering avalanche.

July 14th - Edge of the Storm
The edge of this storm was an amazing contrast to the bright blue sky that preceded it...

July 12th - Mother/Daughter Cloud
I wonder if clouds hold their children in their laps when they read to them...

July 10th - Sesame Street Reverie
Mr. Snuffleupagus: Hello, Bird.
Big Bird: Snuffy? I thought I'd never see you again! I can hardly see you now.
Mr. Snuffleupagus: That is because you are imagining me, Bird.

I guess the jellyfish at the beach this week made a lasting impression...

There is a huge Atrium in the Marriott Savannah Riverfront where we are staying tonight - here is the view from the balcony of our room!

July 5th - On the Road Again
We left a rainy Florida this morning and arrived at the Outer Banks in North Carolina in time for a beautiful sunset by the beach, and a wonderful dinner with family and friends - how good is that?

July 4th - Out of the Cave
Okay - come on - you can do it! It's only sunshine, nothing to be afraid of...

July 3rd - Needle in a Cloud Stack
I was intrigued by the way this altocumulus needle seemed to thread it's way through this cumulus cloud.

The dark curtain of cloudy night slowly closes on the glow of a beautiful day...

July 1st - Hagrid's Favorite
The Hippogriff is a fierce beast part horse and part eagle. It is not as well-known in modern fairy tales as the dragon or the unicorn, yet many writers have been fascinated by this unusual creature. It adds another “winged” creature to the mythical zoo of the Harry Potter books.

Dinosaur bones spread out at the site awaiting identification - it's gonna take some time to put this puppy together!

June 27th - Liar! Liar! Pants on Fire!
Pinocchio, probably the most famous liar of all, is given away by his profile!

June 26th - 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
Kirk Douglas and James Mason would definitely saddle up this big boy!

June 25th - Soft Sky
All I could think about was how soft this sky looked - like an angora baby blanket in classic pink and blue...

June 24th - God Light
The misty light filtering across the foreground of this amazing cloudscape is the stuff Hudson River Valley Painters would die for...

June 23rd - Ren or Stimpy?
I was reminded of a familiar cartoon character, but when I wanted to find out if it was Ren or Stimpy I found I wasn't the only one who was confused about this critical information. Turns out it's the angry, insane chihuahua named Ren Höek - his brain-dead "eediot" sidekick cat, is Stimpy. And that's as much as I want to know about it...

June 22nd - There She Blows!
Looking across the lake it appeared as though this cumulus cloud had literally "blown its top"!
