A post for the cloudwatchers.
I have been reading the Cloudspotter's Guide by Gavin Pretor-Pinney, and in a very geeky way been finding it very illuminating. It is sharpening my admiration of the beauty of skies, and in learning to classify clouds and their behaviour I am keener to photograph them and capture their 'ephemeral beauty'.
Follows are my efforts to capture the swiftly changing skyscape of high cirrostratus and cirrocumulus.

This is midmorning Altocumulus Stratiformis with some thin low level stratus, AKA in this case: 'radiation fog'.
