Arizona Clouds.

Post by Gordon »


My old Canon XT doesn't get much use anymore. Cell phones have pretty much taken over. However, every once in a while I still dig it out and play. The other day I discovered a few photos I captured back in July of 2021 were still on the camera.

Here's what I found:

I am quite attracted to unusual cloud formations.

Thank you Gordon for showing some of yours.

Very nice Gordon!
I really like clouds. Plus, if they are the only game in town, might as well appreciate them!

Clouds can be stunningly beautiful.

Too bad they can't be viewed on a different channel!

I appears we are getting our summer monsoons early. Had pea size hail and 3/4 of an inch of rain in 30 minutes today…..
