This used to be typical of an evening in late August, but it has been absent for the last several years. This year the late afternoon or evening thunder clouds have returned and I’m enjoying every bit of them!

It sure was! It’s amazing what evening sunlight can do to clouds.

It is. These clouds were tall enough to catch some sun after the valley was in near darkness.

The clouds were still forming over a mountain range to the east.

Fantastic photo Terry, isn’t that a bit late in the day to be so high up? 🙂

It’s fairly common here on late summer afternoons or evenings. I remember so many like this from when I was a kid.

Great colours in those clouds. A painter would have fun with those.

The photo after this one was even more colorful, then almost suddenly, the show was over.

That’s often how it is with the light. You have to catch it when you can.

And then I forgot to take one with me fishing today. Well, it probably would have gotten wet in all of the rain.

It is! Cloud formations like those are just awesome, and when the light is just right they put on quite a show.

Yes, it was really pretty. Those big clouds are especially significant this year after several years when they were scarce.

I love those huge clouds, but today they were smaller and brought a steady rain. I enjoy that very much too.

There’s nothing more impressive than watching summer clouds bubble up. It’s amazing how quickly they build and blow away. For several years we had a shortage of good clouds because of the drought. Now, we’re getting more tropical skies, and more building clouds. We don’t often get pinks and lavenders at sunset, though. It makes your photo even more special, to be able to see those colors.

On a hike last week we were on a peak and watched clouds form beneath us. That’s a thrill too.
