Not quite as amazing as those lenticular clouds, but I thought this was going to turn into a tornado and whisk me off to Oz. (If that were Australia, that would be kinda nice.)

About 5 minutes before the first pic.

Barkmagnet · 01-09-2007, 07:40 PM

At dusk, almost a night time rainbow. If you look at the bottom of the pic you can see Sanabel.

Barkmagnet · 01-09-2007, 07:45 PM

my last night at school. there was no bike involved.

these three shots were taken one afternoon around marquette, mi. i quit taking pictures when the rain was penetrating my impenetrables.

Wish I had a pic from when we were loading in town, was just a cold, overcast day, seemingly innocent enough......off we go to ride a Pass, about 100 kms west of the city, when we got to the beginning it looked like this.

SO we decided it was in our best interests to unload and ride the pass, I mean, what else were we supposed to do? at higher altitudes it looked like this;

When we got to the other side of the pass and had descended back to our starting altitude it was wet, but not really stickin'.....we still had to get back to my jeep.

After resting and trying to get warm, we began our venture back accross the pass......(my personal fave. pic)

Ahhhh, good times.

)

it was a cold and wet ride over washington pass in July... got to test out my new rain poncho too

the picture didnt really show the rain, as it was that light sprinkley stuff thats just cold!

That green cloud is just part of the daily superior air quality we have in the Denver area
