Strange Storm Clouds

Here's a long-delayed post. A few weeks ago we had a severe storm pass just to our south, and here's a photo of the clouds from our back deck.
It's my Skywatch Friday entry this week.

    What amazing, unusual clouds, Al!! Really awesome skies and you've captured them beautifully! Wow! I have to just keep coming back to look at them. I've never seen anything quite like them. Take care.

    They are very different clouds, if I were to have painted them like that it would look like I didn't know what a cloud was suppose to look like. LOL

    Hi Al...Those are some fascinating clouds, never say anything like that, and perhaps I really don't want to!
    Outstanding photo!!

    I haven't seen clouds like that for years - and then only once or twice!!! What a stunning shot!

    Gorgeous rolling clouds -- I don't think I've ever seen any exactly like that! (The only thing I hate about this post is that it makes me want to throw away the "storm coming" post I have ready for tomorrow.) Oh well, Oregon clouds are not as interesting as Colorado ones (and this Oregon photographer isn't as good either.)

    Great picture, thanks for sharing!!

    What an extraordinary sky! I wonder what causes clouds to do that.

    Al....What an amazing capture. It is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the visit to my blog. Yes, my husband is hiking through the mountains of Maine but he is NOT 80. That woman was really amazing. He had a great visit with her at the host. Genie
