Hi Dave, The whole series is a knockout! Excellent work. I can see why they chose one for the image of the day, but why they waited so long is a mystery! This is really good stuff. Tara (auntietk)

This album is really exciting. I have never seen clouds like this before. It would be great to see them live, but your photos definitely do them justice. Would it be okay if I printed a few? Amazing.

Wow! I was speechless at first. It would be amazing to know what the name of this cloud is from a meteorologist. Thanks to Austin and gramma for calling the radio station. Thanks to you for taking these amazing images and sharing them with us. What a treat you have given all of us.

said
enemaria100 2007.10.25 at 22:59:07 PDT
okay, it's official... I'm a believer in UFO's! It is awesome and beautiful. But what gets me is the passage of time, and the clouds are still in the same location. That doesn't happen, clouds move with the winds. Congrats on POTD, you DESERVE it! ((~.~)) Khani

I noticed your name "punaguy1" and assumed you shot this from the Big Island. Only in Hawai'i! I have seen some pretty amazing cloud formations out here but this one tops them all... No ka oi, brah! If you get a chance, here is a pretty "spooky" photograph I took over on O'ahu: http://travel.webshots.com/photo/2429736530100410676kaTukw?vhost=travel See if you don't see the "spirit" being drawn up into the clouds to the right... as well as an "angel" center left. Clark from O"ahu.

Oops, didn't read the caption, just the album title, which is why I thought it was Austin, TX. LOL So this appeared over Hilo, Hawaii? Very impressive.
said
malainie 2004.01.03 at 11:18:05 PST
Wow! What a great set of photos. The cloud kind of looks like lenticular clouds that we get here in Colorado near the Rockies. But I never knew they could form over areas like you have in Austin. It really does look like a huge UFO, too. Hmmmm. ;)
