and I have just discovered 'instagram' - been on there for a while however I always stuck my nose up at it - partly because I never knew how to upload my shots on computer to instagram app (duh !! ) and partly as I was a bit precious as I love to see photos on a BIG screen(that could be age ;)) and partly because , being Irish, I could not ramble on chatting about stuff like I do on here and last because it was all a bit square ! - but now I have jumped on board and so found all these shots whilst uploading like this one - taken on my cloud chasing dawn/sunrise morning about this time last year - guess what my name is on instagram - yeah you guessed it @rosiebondi ! so if you're on there , come say hi and we can follow each other on the Big and the Little screen - #nevertoolate ;)

THIS IS A FIRE RAINBOW - THE RAREST OF ALL NATURALLY OCCURRING ATMOSPHERIC PHENOMENA.
CLOUDS HAVE TO BE CIRRUS, AT LEAST 20K FEET IN THE AIR, WITH JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF ICE CRYSTALS AND THE SUN HAS TO HIT THE CLOUDS AT PRECISELY 58 DEGREES.
Thanks to mariamiller18 for finding this cool tidbit above.
I've seen this phenomena maybe 4x since I've taken up photography but this is my best capture. It must be from a rainbow but it looks more like its shaped with the cloud. I just think its mesmerizing. Used a circular polarizer to bring out the details.
Wanted to shoot the skyline again at night, but it was more of clouds and lightning show after it got dark. I tried to get lightning but couldn't. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
It has been 15 years since last time I came here with my family.Hehuan Mountain is the hometown of clouds.Its height is 3417 meters.I drive with my family by my SUV to here today.The weather here is about 3°C .I know many countries even more colder than this in an ordinary winter days,but to us the subtropical climate area it is very very cold.The Chinese Lunar Year is coming at 19,02,2015,I wish all of you a lucky,healthy and happy Lunar New Year.
Terrestrial cloud formation is the result of air in any of the lower three principal layers of Earth's atmosphere (collectively known as the homosphere) becoming saturated due to either or both of two processes: cooling of the air and adding water vapor. With sufficient saturation in the troposphere, precipitation will fall to the surface; an exception is virga, which evaporates before reaching the surface. Clouds that form at very high altitudes in the stratosphere and mesosphere do not contain sufficient moisture to generate any outfall of droplets or crystals.
The clouds ruled this moody morning in the Grand Teton National Park. This is what the clouds looked like without the long exposure.
Captured this pretty view while driving down the road after leaving Glacier National Park on our ride to Oregon. Saw the lake, the clouds, and there was a little park to pull over. Pretty neat scene with the reflection.
Went out for a really long walk today through the woods and fields. The ground was sodden and really muddy and I had to wade my way through in places, but the sun was shining and the clouds looked fantastic and I had a great time. It took me almost 3 hours to get to this point, but it was well worth it. I got a few decent shots, but this was my favourite. After all the rain and snow, it was nice to see some sunshine!
I hope everyone is well and enjoying their photography :)

Gortmore Panorama, 18 images stitched to make a panoramic image looking from Binevenagh on the left to the end of the Innishowen Peninsula on the right. The hills of Donegal protrude above the clouds in the distance. Cloud covered the whole area of Magilligan below Gortmore - something I believe is called "Cloud Inversion." I have seen images of this before, but this is my 1st capture of it.
I have no idea of the meteorological reasons for it but it was great to see it, even if it was a little strange hearing life go on below and not being able to see it.
“Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.”

Perranuthnoe beach last weekend. I love the way the receding waves uncover the cloud reflected in the wet sand. Blowing a gale here, but still no snow!
I went to Drumheller for work a while ago, and you really can't go to Drumheller without having a beer and a burger at the East Coulee Pub as you make your way to the wonderful little ghost town of Dorothy, Alberta.
