#Mondog #monochromeMonday
It started below freezing but got up to 50f/10c. An uneventful Monday, I think it's a good thing.
Have a great week, everyone.

#mondog #monochromeMonday (the sky was too good for B&W, though)
The first full week of the year started, which I could easily tell by the amount of cars on the road. Thankfully, I didn't get behind any school bus. Coming from a country where there's no school bus, they are something this old man isn't happy with...
Have a good week, everyone, and don't get behind a school bus.

This pastel painting is a view from the ferry leaving Arran. There were very large clouds that day and a rainbow across the land, which was a magical sight.

Luke Howard's Essay on the Modification of Clouds (1865)

"It was long thought impossible to infer clear types from the constantly shifting skies. But based on the journals [Luke Howard, industrial chemist by trade and amateur meteorologist by calling] kept since the age of ten, Howard became the first to name standard cloud formations systematically. "

A study of clouds at sunset, referencing my own photo. I'd had the photo knocking around for 20 years and finally decided to paint it, and the result ended up being one of my favourite pieces of this past year.

Sometimes my soul rises and becomes a white cloud drifting across the sky. It watches, lives in the sunlight, stays quiet and, when it feels sorrow, it cries.
Yet the sky above it is, and will always be, bright and blue.

Just eight days ago, I gave a popular science talk at @mpi_grav about colorful phenomena in the sky, and now – boom!
Just minutes ago, there were beautiful iridescent clouds (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_iridescence) here, north of Hanover, Germany.
Here, light is diffracted by tiny droplets in the clouds, creating these typical mother-of-pearl colors.

The reason I went outside to take photos was because of this fascinating phenomenon.
This is a “dissipation trail”, or “distrail” for short, which is essentially the opposite of an airplane's contrail (condensation trail).
Here, the aircraft exhausts temporarily dissolve the clouds. However, new clouds can then form again along the distrail.
