Immediately recognizable as a witch, maybe the one from wizard of oz! So clear it looks like photoshop!

Ha, I lied. One more. Clouds tell interesting stories. My husband took this pic while doing fieldwork near Moab. He was taking pictures of the outcrop, but captured the cloud deck roughly towards the northwest. I was skiing Alta that day in a snowstorm.

Cell phone cameras (I’m assuming that’s what she used) are getting remarkably good these days.

Mt. Sopris (right?) here reminds me of The Tower of Doom in Mordor (Lord of the Rings) with the clouds being the evilness emanating. LOL.

One from the days of yore, La Quinta, CA.

On the way to Cooper, early AM.

Just another sunset.

This sunset was during a bad episode of wildfires last summer (2020).

I can't believe I hadn't seen this thread either, @ADKmel. I could post photos of clouds all day.

Where is that?

Where is that?

If I am correct, the peak on the right is American Border Peak, and the one on the left is Canadian Border Peak. The shot is from the top of Table Mountain next to Artist Point at the end of WA SR542 (the Mt. Baker Highway). The peaks are both easily visible from the Mt. Baker Ski Area as well. It was taken a few years ago. Right now Artist Point is still closed under many feet of snow pack as it is every year. It's a popular hike-to destination for back country skiers.

Beautiful. Sad to say, the only time I’ve been in the Pacific NW is on 2 trips to Vancouver BC.
I need to get to Washington State!

That made me go revisit my cloudy Washington state pics!

Reminds me of Alaska.

So yesterday we began the drive from UT to VA.

I believe the cloud above my wife is virga, photo taken about 815PM on 27May2021, along the extremely beautiful Grandview trail at Canyonlands National Park, Island in the Sky section:
