Layers of Cloud and Wind

2023-10-19 By Roger Edwards

Layers of Cloud and Wind

A persistent, spectacular, nontornadic supercell spun its way from the dryline west of Hereford and over town, then past this wind farm and onward to a splendid sunset in the Tulia/Happy area.  Along the way, it offered outstanding, multilayered structure like this.  Our attempt to get ahead of it shortly after this shot was thwarted by a deep flood over an unpaved backroad shortcut, so we had to be content with the backside view.  This was the second of a wildly oscillating, high-mileage, four-day Texas chase stretch that took us from Norman to well southeast of Dallas and westward to the Hill Country on the first day, then the western Panhandle for this second-day storm, back to the Hill Country of central Texas the next day, then way up to the northern Panhandle on the fourth!

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...
