Felt Mammatus

2020-08-01 By Roger Edwards

Felt Mammatus The title has a simple meaning that is not obvious to those unfamiliar with southern High Plains geography.  No, this wonderful sunset scene wasn’t “felt” as a feeling, at least not physically nor emotionally, nor did I judge its apparent texture as resembling the fabric known as felt.  I suppose one can get deliriously artistic, especially with aid of mind-altering substances, and dive into those rabbit holes of interpretive abstraction.  Instead, it occurred over the town called Felt.  And yes, I most certainly “felt” thankful to have borne witness to this grand show, somewhat later and at the opposite end of the sky from an example of the “beauty of atmospheric violence“. 5 ESE Felt OK (19 Jun 20) Looking WSW 36.5552, -102.715

About

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story. After all, meaningful photography is much more than just picture-taking; it is visually rendering a moment in place and time from a perspective like none other. As a scientist and an artist, I hope my deep passion for the power and splendor of our skies and waters shines through in these pages. If you are a cloud and weather aficionado, outdoor enthusiast, outdoor or nature photographer, art lover, or anyone who craves learning, enjoy...
