Square clouds again!

I find square clouds to be fascinating.  Here is another of these amazing formations.

Have a great week!

Sky Sketch

To me, it looks like someone took a huge piece of chalk and sketched this angled pattern into the sky overhead. 

Have a lovely day!

Another Square Cloud

Here is a neatly squarish cloud with circle inside of it.  I captured it with my camera on this past week.   It always boggles my mind to see straight lines in the clouds--and that perfectly centered circle is fun, too.

Have a great day!

Squared

I caught these astonishing clouds with straight lines recently over the top of my house.  These kinds of clouds always fill me with a bit of awe.

Clouds aren't supposed to be square-shaped!

The beauty of the skies bring to mind the Words the Maker of Life spoke to His servant Job.

"Can you lift your voice to the clouds,

That a flood of waters may cover you?

Can you send forth lightnings that they may go

And say to you, 'here we are'?"

Who can number the clouds by wisdom?
Or who can tilt the waterskins of the heavens,
When the dust runs into a mass
And the clods hold together?

~Job 38: 34-35, 37-38

Have a lovely week. 

Cloudy Square -SkyWatch Friday

We were out walking when I caught this gigantic square in the sky with my camera.

Here is a close up of the cloud.

"O kingdoms of the earth, sing to God;

Sing praises to the Lord,

To him who rides in the heavens

The ancient heavens;

Behold, he sends out his voice, 

His mighty voice."

~A Psalm of David

(Psalm 68:34, 35)

Mysterious Cloak of Sun -SkyWatch Friday

We were in the parking lot of Guitar Center where we'd met up with a buyer for some of our older theater lights.  I couldn't help but notice this odd cloud formation.  The straight lines were quite intriguing.

Here is a closer shot a few moments after the first was taken.  Shortly after this there was a terrible storm.

Getting Geometric

 I've been away from this blog for a time--but I have growing a collection of geometric clouds which must be shared.  Above is a triangle cloud I caught over the back fence.

Here you can see three oval clouds next to a triangle tree top!

I see lots and lots of squares in the clouds.  It seems so odd to see a square amidst normally smooth and fluffy clouds.  I'll post some of my better pictures of cloud squares at a later time.

Round clouds such as you see above and round spaces in the clouds are more common than you might think.  I just love this fluffy circle cloud!

Last you will see a rectangle cloud. This is a rare capture.  I caught this from the window of the van, as we were traveling.

Have a lovely Christmas everyone! 

Egad, It's a Square!

Once again I find myself amazed at the straight lines one can find in the skies.   I caught these square clouds over the back fence in the alley a few days ago. 

'Tis purely incredible to me.

Borg Cloud at Sunset - Skywatch Friday

Heading South on I-5 one night, I happened to capture this amazing square cloud, just as the sun was setting.  It was quite spectacular!

Blue Sky Brownies

I apologize for being gone so long--my computer broke down and I was offline for sometime.  She's back up and running again--for which I'm thankful!

Every now and then I catch a glimpse of clouds which look like a huge pan of fluffy blue "brownies" cut into precise squares.  The above picture, taken from the south end of our home, is one such occurrence.

Motley Square

I was in awe the night this Motley Square cloud floated across the skies, just as the sun lowered behind the hilltops.
