CLOUDS

Carmi's theme this week is CLOUDS.   To see some wonderful cloud pictures, just follow this link

This photo was taken in Anglesey – the clouds were very threatening, and we just got back to the car before the rains fell!

 

Looking across the Menai Straits to Snowdonia, the clouds bubbled up over the mountains.

A typical summer day in Britain – sunny, but with the possibility of a short shower.   Wish it was like that now – we have unrelenting grey, with wind and rain.   It looks positively Autumnal out there today, and its only August 1st!

That first one definitely looks threatening!. Great set of cloud shots. Love the fluffy one- looks like brush strokes..

Very nice.
The top 2 are really striking and dramatic. Well done.

I would welcome any of these skies if they would just bring this area some much needed rain.

Thanks for the visit to my sky over the lake.

I can almost feel their power as I look at them in full-resolution. Goodness all around!

Really nice cloud pictures! The third one looks exactly like my mental image of Britain. Hope to see it one day!

Nice pics, Gilly.

Snowdonia! What a name. I had to look it up on the internet to believe it.

Beautiful photos! The bottom photo has the kind of clouds that I like to look at and try to find animal shapes. :)
