Here is a sky view from Topsmead State Park in Litchfield, Connecticut, on the Sunday before the Incredible Weirdness came and dashed and dashed and dashed snow all over us before it disappeared without a trace--beyond the incredibly late-November-like cold. The sky was a terrible tease. The clouds seemed within reach, but there was no taking hold of them.

What magnificent clouds! They do look close enough to touch -- wishfully at least!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Sandy!

interesting clouds-they certainly make a statement
ReplyDeleteThey're coming straight for us!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous.
Amazing clouds!
ReplyDeleteThis is a neat pic, showing the weight of these prankster clouds. I especially like your use of personification.
ReplyDeleteHmm... sounds like some people I know too. Wonderful photo!
ReplyDeleteIt's too bad that such beautiful clouds brought such terrible weather. But your photo is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteindeed. like cotton candy escaping the hands of children...

Hi Sandy...sorry it has been so long since I visited. I sure miss those nice Connecticut skies...!! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteNice shot...beautiful clouds...
ReplyDeletebeautiful capture sandy.
ReplyDeletei must say and i have probably said it before, one of the things i love about living in virginia are the ever-changing and most beautiful skies.
have a fab weekend.
Are you sure they're out of reach?? They look just a tippy-toe stretch away...
ReplyDeleteI love those clouds Sandy. Beautiful shot.
ReplyDeleteSuch drama! I'm not surprised they were crazy and dropped snow on you. I cannot believe you had snow before me. (Secretly snickering.)
ReplyDeletethe weather gods must be on something to be so confused about the seasons ... they misplaced Spring, shorted us on Summer and now they are turning Fall into Winter!
ReplyDeleteBUT what a glorious sky!
Big cotton balls!! Beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteMarvelous clouds full of snow! And they do look reachable!
ReplyDeleteGreat silhouette of the landscape against the dramatic low-hanging clouds.
ReplyDeletevery impressive cloudscape.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very ominous sky. Capable of great weirdness.
ReplyDeletelooks like you can just reach out and touch the clouds :)
ReplyDeleteSuch heavy looking clouds, they feel quite oppressive to me.
ReplyDeleteLove the deep blue!!
ReplyDeleteWe got the cold, but not the snow. Clouds are pretty!
ReplyDeleteIt truly does appear as if I could reach up and touch them. Such a tease.
ReplyDeletePretty capture of the clouds and skies. We do not want the snow clouds here, can you keep them there? LOL!
ReplyDeleteDramatic!! I love how the clouds look like they're kinda coming shoulder to shoulder with me. Our sky is a pale gray right now - FLAT.
ReplyDeleteSnow already in CT how weird. You seem to have a knack for writing. Nice post!

Hmm, snow is a word I never hear or see in our forecast, but sometimes I would mind a sprinkle or two... as long as it disappeared as fast as it came. Nice sky shot, Sandy.
ReplyDeleteInteresting clouds! I am so jealous of the snow you got no matter how short lasting it was.
ReplyDeleteLove those clouds that visit close to Earth~
ReplyDeleteA lovely weekend to you, Sandy

I want to come close to the snow. And it's a wonder how snow gets into that white thing called clouds.
