Clouds

"When the bow is in the cloud, then I will look upon it, to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth." ~ Genesis 9:16

"Look at the heavens and see; and behold the clouds--they are higher than you." ~ Job 35:5

"Can anyone understand the spreading of the clouds, the thundering of His pavilion?" ~ Job 36:29

"Do you know about the layers of the thick clouds, the wonders of One perfect in knowledge..." ~ Job 37:16

Clouds and the ocean are two things in creation (besides humans) that continually amaze me. It's always better in person, but here are some fascinating photos of mammatus clouds. These clouds are like nothing I've ever seen. I had to laugh when linking the first photo because the name of it is "tight jeans". At least it wasn't called "plumber's bum" or something like that, right?




More photos can be found here.

I also like pictures from storm chasers, like these three from Mike Hollingshead.
