A Christmas Present from the Sky

That was awesome, drannhh! I am glad that you didn't forget the camera! It just takes moments to make our lives and this being one such. Lovely flying clouds there! I have always regretted not to take the camera with me. I think, carrying a camera is a good thing. Especially when we are living on an era of networking and internet. Sharing makes the joy manifold and we get to reach out to many at one go. I just love all your green finger shots...keep sharing. PS: I must make it a habit to carry my cam everywhere.

These past few days... we only get dark clouds... not like in the past where we see a variety everydya... and i have seen that "herring bone sky" several times... but never did bother to take a photo... maybe because it is not that unusual for me... But lately... i have been going to places where the landscapes and mountain views are beautiful... but have not taken any pictures yet... but this week for sure i will...

I barely take my camera anywhere. I just don't think about it. We do have alot of clouds here. We love to sit outside and try to make a picture out of them.

whoa!its art across the skies..a visual gift!my fascination is the lightning!!when i was a kid i would look out of the window and wait for those magnificent flashes in the skies...everytime there was thunderstorm..and even now!im still so amazed by lightnings....once i was driving with friends to the north and suddenly i heard thunder..i knew right away that lightning would manifest in the skies...was os happy to see the spectacle!!!!from a moving vehicle..i kept shouting with joy and all my friends were awed...hahaha....even now im sooohh hyper still with lightnings...thats why when i watched twilight...i was so thrilled with the baseball scene and wished that i was part of the team..hehehe....by the way...congratulations!!for a very nice photo of the clouds....as a fellow skywatcher i love it!!!!!

Oh I love it when clouds gather in the sky makeing unusual shapes that you probably think of it as if some one has drawn but in this case his table is the sky. I hope that you are enjoying those clouds as much as you miss them in your area, as you have mentioned before that you do not get it that often.

Not having a camera when you want to a pic a very common. This has happened lot of times to me. The photo was great. I have seen lot of clouds similar to this, but this is definetly a herring bone clouds.Clouds are very common at my place. Once it looked like a sleeping baby.Unfortunately, I do not have those pictures.

I don't have my camera with me the last two weeks or so. My brother brought it with him on his vacation. But yes, there have been so many instances when I wished I had my trusty camera. But I do have my phone camera and I try to snap pictures from it but the quality is not as good so I just tell myself just as long as I have something to remember it by. Please refer to my comment on your picture to read what I think about these clouds. You can psychoanalyze me and my comment if you want. Right now, we have gloomy skies. The other day, the sky looked like two factions fighting each other, like good versus evil, blue skies versus dark and intimidating clouds.

i have seen clouds like that. i am from -kerala-"God's own country" (in INDIA). here the beauty of nature is the best. we don't have snow fall it is always greenish and occasionally i can see the clouds like that. lol! i don't have a camera. i did may be i will forget to take it .

That is a pretty sweet picture. The sky and the moon tonight has looked pretty fabulous. I sadly do not have any cloud stories. Any interesting ones at least. But our sky in West Virginia is always beautiful. Plus, the combination of the mountains and the rivers in the area makes the sky look even more beautiful.
