Scene notes:
Exemplar of towering clouds. These are called Cumulus congestus. If the clouds were closer together (greater humidity) or the air was a little warmer, a thunderstorm would have formed. Later in the day, these clouds did form a storm. One gets the impression that these clouds, when experienced in the morning or around noon, are a fair indicator of rain or lightning to come shortly. Visually observing these clouds closely allows the observer the ability to predict rainfall with higher accuracy than a weather forecast or radar alone.

Scene notes:
… Backlit by the sun making stark contrast, undulating. These low-level clouds move along a wind left-to-right, transforming as they go. Stark backlighting is necessary when capturing crepuscular rays and shadows to preserve highlights. Two or three separate bands of cloud are evident in the lower half of the frame, the largest of which show signs of nearing future precipitation, with the upper half containing smaller patches of varying density overhead. Length at 30 fps: Seven seconds and nine frames.
