As the last sunlight reddened and brilliantly illuminated its midsection, the richly colored and textured, upper-level cloud protuberance continued to thrust westward and directly overhead from a cluster of convection. Gaps allowed blue-sky light to pass through, rendering a marvelously three-dimensional view for a two-dimensional photograph. In its form, this narrowly focused, backshear expulsion of anvil-level cloud material reminded me of an intermittent steam geyser’s belching, or an expansive, exploded stellar nebula.
