Summer Sunset Clouds

I'm going back to July for this set of Skywatch Friday photos, of some clouds that caught my eye at sunset. These are all taken from my yard - it's nice living almost a mile and a half above sea level, as the clouds seem different up here! (That's over 2 km above sea level for most of the world that uses metric.)
I'll never tire of the unending drama in the skies.

    What fantastic, dramatic skies, Al! Terrific captures for the day! Isn't it wonderful to be able to just look up and see sights like these? Hope your week is going well!

    You probably do have a different perspective to us sea-level dwellers. These are certainly dramatic shots. Who needs mountains when you have clouds?

    I love to put my nose up against the sky! I can sit and dream staring at the different shapes and colors of the clouds..

    Fantastic pictures! :)

    I like your altitude shots, nothing like looking the clouds right in the face.

    Whatever you decide to do Al, just keep on posting.

    Fabulous shots!

    I'd prefer fewer post per week as I can't visit every day...
