Sunset Cirrus Behind Undulatus

2020-10-16 By Roger Edwards

Sunset Cirrus Behind Undulatus

A richly variegated spray of scuddy altocumulus undulatus clouds in midlevels added delightfully rich, silhouetting texture to an autumnal Oklahoma sunset, backed by yellow-orange cirrus.   If we must endure drought conditions, at least brilliantly illuminated sky paintings such as this offer some measure of consolation.  This was a weird and sad year worldwide, with a pandemic and a host of other socioeconomic problems, but at least was good for observing undulatus formations around these parts.

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...
