The clouds put out a drizzle of rain but not enough for me to bring along my umbrella.
We had a few cloudy days and we even got a little bit of rain. The sun was hitting the top of this white cloud just right for it to be lit up bright white.
The sunrises this week were so nice. The clouds made it look extra nice. And it was cooler. This was a few minutes after I took the last picture. The sun was trying to peek out from behind the clouds.
The next day more clouds and more rain off in the distance.
A few minutes later from the last picture as we were walking home.
That night the rain clouds moved in and I spotted this small shaft of sunlight beaming down from the clouds. It rained for all of 5 minutes.
Shafts of light are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteThat last picture is amazing with that sunbeam. I have to say I'm jealous of your 5 minutes of rain. After all the rain we had this spring and early summer we have dried up something awful. I do hope your temperatures are getting better. Ours are back to hot summer.
ReplyDeleteIt is starting to cool down a little. We're still in the 90's here though.
DeleteI am constantly amazed that your clouds don't seem to give you much rain. They look so full!
ReplyDeleteAnywhere else I swear these clouds would have produced rain. lol
DeleteWe need rain. It’s drier than an Arizona desert here.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get some then.
DeleteThat light is good there, you don't often see that.
ReplyDeleteAll the photos are nice, Mary.
Thank you so much.
DeleteYou have a good photographic eye.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteYou get such dramatic clouds! LOL. The pic with the cloud half-lit is so cool.
ReplyDeleteWe do get dramatic clouds but not much rain most times.
Deletenice photos
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteYeah the NV clouds don't produce much rain. Except, when they do right?
ReplyDeleteYes. It's monsoon season so we could get rain anytime.
DeleteThese photos are absolutely gorgeous. I love how you captured the light on the clouds. it's so peaceful and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteThose clouds are so amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, I appreciate that.
DeleteIt’s quite hilarious here in Indonesia when a man carries an umbrella during the day, it’s sometimes considered a “girl’s thing” that should only be used by women. But in reality, the use of umbrellas is part of our common culture. Whether it’s a light drizzle or heavy rain, it’s perfectly acceptable for both men and women to use an umbrella as protection from getting wet. Different Pond, Different Fish
ReplyDeleteHow interesting. If it's raining both men and women should be using an umbrella.
DeleteLove your 'Blue Cloud Art. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteAll that drama for five minutes of rain? The sky was a diva.
ReplyDeleteHa! Yes it was.
DeleteBeautiful ❤️
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteThat was aliens beaming up their empress Lady Gaga.
ReplyDeleteHa! Maybe.
DeleteFantastic clouds :-D Great photos :-D
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteFive minutes of rain is five minutes more than we’ve gotten in the last Three or so weeks, which is not normal for us I like the coloration on all of your cloud pictures. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteWe got more rain last night too.
DeleteGreat skies. You would think those skies would bring more rain than 5 minutes. :)
ReplyDeleteYes you would.
DeleteI love a good sky
ReplyDeleteMe too.
DeleteI like the skies in these photographs.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Thank you.
DeleteBeautiful. I love gloomy skies like this. I would probably not like living there because I long for cloudy, rainy days. Some day I'll move to Ireland where it rains more than the sun shines LOL
ReplyDeleteOh I would like to live there too,
