When the sky goes strange.......

Postby Rifleman » Tue Aug 08, 2006 1:04 pm

I walked out the door to grab a bite last night just before 8pm......I was greeted by a strange sight......looking to the southwest, I knew I had to go back in and grab the camera.

I saw this formation of cloud, which must have been forced up over the Island mountains by some weather blowing in from the Pacific........very strange indeed.   :o

That's a very nice photo. Not always easy to capture.

That really is unique. The sky is one of the most amazing sights to behold. Different everyday and every picture is the only one of its kind.  8)

Looks like a weather front hitting the mountains causing the clouds to formate. Good picture.
