Me thinks those might be floating UFO's in the last shot. Beautiful photos...and as usual, I learned something here: Circum Horizontal Arc? Sounds like something my doctor mentioned when my back went out.
wow, beautiful sky shots no matter what kind of messages they are conveying. the middle does look like it could have been caused by a circum horizontal arc, but i wouldn't know cause just 3 minutes ago is when i learned of those things. :)
Women!!! Those are things created by a man so you could enjoy beautiful things in your lives, besides handsome men. Actually they are ice crystals and in some places they are called sun dogs. The cloud formations suggest mighty strong winds aloft. The sun dogs, I think, mean a change in the weather.
Even before I read your comment I was thinking that the sky looked strange and unlike any I had seen before. Don't know what to make of it but very pretty.
Very alien-like. I added you to my blog list as a favorite. I love reading your posts! I'm so glad that Kelly at Pass the Torch told me to take a look.
Great pictures of the sky. I've noticed some really strange looking clouds here the last couple days too, but now the air is thick with smoke from grass fires in the next county. It's going to be a long hot summer.. xo
Those are awesome pictures of the sky, such unusual cloud formations in that last one!!
Yesssss, my mystery flowers are Verbena! lol As soon as you mentioned those, I remembered that's what they are called...thank you so much in helping me out:-) xoxo
Hi I'm back it's late here,and it was Janice I gave the head ache to with all those questions so I will send the asprin to her. I think I may have just confused you a little.
Wonderful sky photos, and so funny, I just put up my post for today and did a series of sky photos from today, because it kept changing. That last one of yours is really cool.
The rainbow arc does look like a Sun Dog, which must be the same as a Circum Horizontal Arc. These may be relatively common but seen only when the sun is 22 degrees in the sky so people tend to miss them.
When there is an inversion and the fog rolls into a shivery valley it is both dangerous and breathtaking. Walking on the gravelly path seems stable, but even the small twigs that stick up around the edges grab onto the moisture and create little artistic ice crystals. a male house finch adds a spot of color! After a few days of this wintery chill, a warm Chinook wind blew in. It was probably pushed ahead of what the weatherman called an "atmospheric river" which drenched the west siders way beyond seasonal norms. It is forecast that Christmas will be warm and no white stuff falling. At least not here. **** May there be moments of peace and hope in your hearts as you celebrate this holiday. Hug each other. Feed the birds ****
Our Fun Monday Host this week is Molly, Return of the White Robin . She requested that we share a fond memory of childhood and some pictures. There are very few pictures of my childhood. There are, however, many memories. Little snippets of sounds and smells raced through my mind today as I tried to find a trail to follow. I jotted down many that I hoped would provide me with an idea for today's assignment. Then, I realized that these little bits and pieces are part of the jig saw puzzle of me -- of who I am. You don't have to put them together, but I think you'll see the picture. Childhood Memories The chorus of frogs from the pond in the lower pasture that lulled us to sleep on warm summer nights. Catching polliwogs in the creek that disappeared several pastures over into a foliage camouflaged ravine. The distinct sweet smell of new born kittens inside a barrel in the fruit house The hunt for the elusive Tiger Lily in the open fields, and the pungent s...
Quirky Lisa (Lisa's Chaos) is today's Hostess with the mostess quirks. She used the following instructions to enlighten us about today's topic: A quirk is defined as a peculiarity of action, behavior, or personality; mannerism. We are all unique individuals, having quirks that help make us who we are. I would like to know what your quirks are. Confess to one, confess to ten, you decide. Just come back Monday ready to spill the beans, the rest of the world may look at you like you are from Mars, but you‘re among friends here. We won’t laugh, in fact that eccentricity just may endear you to us more. Well ...I'm being as quirky as Swampwitch today. I'm sorta following the rules, and sorta not. Instead of hearing about my boring quirkiness, you are being treated to an old story about a quirky cat. * * * * Daggett was a cat with very odd behavior. I like to think she channeled my monthly mood swings. But, her excuse may be that her head was slightly injured in a c...

Great sky photography, Pamela.
Absolutely amazing photos!! :)
Wish they would put some scrolling art work on them though, like the blimps do when they fly over.
Great childhood memory. Love those blimps.
