Clouds of fire

I was walking my dog yesterday and I noticed how the clouds seemed like the flames of the sun.

A bit wider version of the same.

And today there were also a clouds of fire in the sky.

A bit wider version of the same.

Most depressing time of the year?

This might be the most depressing time of the year, since all the leaves have fallen from the trees and day is getting really short, at least in this latitude, so it is dark most of the time, it's wet, since the weather is a bit too warm to have snow, but too cold anyways to be outside.

But being outside at the right time might set just one of a kind show in the sky.

These Aurora Borealises I might have missed if I hadn't turned off my headlight when I was walking my dog way too early in the morning.

Or if I had driven just a bit faster than normal, I would have missed this sunrise when the sun is just rising above the horizon and is almost going behind the forest, before it rises again.

Or if I had decided to take another route with my dog when we were on our day walk. Sun went behind that puffy clouds just before it settled in for the day.

Sometimes clouds remind me

..of a movie.

Low hanging tentacles from the cloud. When I saw this cloud formation, I knew that I knew the movie, but I couldn't pinpoint what movie this scene was off. 

Most of the time your imagination makes association with something that you have seen or dream about with the clouds, these aren't any exact things, that can be transferred to point of view. 

Or sometimes it is so obvious that everyone sees it the same way.

Three layers of clouds

Today in our morning walk with my dog, I noticed three layers of clouds in the sky. And the lower level ones moved really fast.

I live and commute in a pretty level section of Finland. This is "agricultural center of Finland" and there aren't that many hills or forests that are blocking the view in the far end of the sky. And most of the time I spot clouds while I am driving. 

I don't know is this real sun pillar or just lens refraction of the camera, but it was awesome to see.

Other wonderful but quite rare is to see in the high sky wave clouds

Cloud shadows and puffy ones

I should really start to carrying my DSLR when ever I am outside. As I was walking my dog the other day, clouds played shadow game in the sky and I cursed a bit in my mind that I didn't take the DSLR after all.

Okay, it really doesn't show that much when you compare to wider shot from the same camera. 

Puffy clouds that look like bits of cotton wool floating in lots of blue sky are a sign of fair weather.  Also they are called Altocumulus clouds.

This time of the year clouds are making wonderful paintings in the sky, just when it is settling in or just about rise for the new day.

Archipelago ring road and ferries

I have planned to make a road trip through Archipelago ring road in Southern west Finland quite while now and I finally made it this year. I was making a RSP Road Trip Finland videos for my other Youtube channel and while I was in the ferries, crossing the sea from island to island I had great view from the top of the ferries to the sky. 

And it was supposed to rain whole Finland, but I guess I was that part of the Finland where it had or it will be raining later that day, but sky was filled with clouds and you can see the they are pouring down the rain.

I made some videos too for my YouTube channel, go check it out!

This might be upside down

This might be upside down, I mean this was almost straight up and when you point your phone's camera straight up and it tries to determinate which direction is up.

As I was walking my dog the other day I spotted wave clouds in the southern sky. These are clouds that form of atmospheric internal waves.

I should start to carry my DSLR more often. This was so dark and murky that my phone's camera didn't capture it in a "right way".

Cirrus clouds typically appear delicate and wispy with white strands. Cirrus are usually formed when warm, dry air rises, causing water vapor deposition onto rocky or metallic dust particles at high altitudes.

I just love the sunset and the clouds in the country side. No man made structures to ruin the silhouette.
