I think it’s worth mentioning that these are oil paintings, not photoshopped pictures. This guy is amazing, check him out.

FUCKIN LOVE CLOUDS
Clouds are just so nice sometimes.
You don’t even understand. I Fuckin love clouds like I could stare at clouds for hours.
this atmospheric phenomenon is known as a circumhorizontal arc, which occurs when the sun is at least 58° above the horizon and the hexagonal ice crystals which form cirrus clouds become horizontally aligned.

Did you say clouds and sunsets?
Okay so science side of tumblr help me out, because I thought the rapture was happening this morning
Those are Kelvin-Helmholtz billow clouds. Its the air equivalent to sea waves rolling to the shore. Very beautiful and quite rare.
Woah
Only from the heart can you touch the sky. from 500px & flickr
Please don’t delete the link to the photographers/artists, thanks!
Asperatus Clouds were only classified in 2009. As a result, we know little about them other than the fact that they look amazing.
Lenticular “UFO” clouds generally form over mountains although in rare instances they can be caused by shear winds. The clouds generally form when stable air flows over the top of a mountain. The moisture droplets are pushed up a steep slope, condensing into cloud on their way, and forming in a spiral formation over the top. (Source)
Amazing Ice Halo Display
This incredible image shows a the sun adorned with a glittering halo - a rare phenomenon called a ‘sun dog’. It was taken in the aftermath of superstorm Sandy by NASA solar physicist David Hathaway in Huntsville, Alabama.
The apparition is almost certainly connected to hurricane Sandy. The core of the storm swept well north of Alabama, but Sandy’s outer bands did pass over the area, leaving behind a thin haze of ice crystals in cirrus clouds. Sunlight shining through the crystals produced an unusually rich variety of ice halos.
The effect is generated byplate-shaped hexagonal ice crystals in high and cold cirrus clouds or, during very cold weather, by ice crystals called diamond dust drifting in the air at low levels.
A sun dog, scientific name parhelion from Greek ‘beside the sun’, creates bright spots of light in the sky, often on a luminous ring or halo on either side of the sun. Sun dogs may appear as a colored ball of light to the left or right of the sun and in ice halos. They can be seen anywhere in the world and are most dazzling when the sun is low.
