KK Beautiful Yet Scary Looking Cloud

Strange clouds forming above KK skies this morning. Too bad, I didn't realize it on my way to work, probably because I'm driving and feeling a bit sleepy :) I do realized that KK skies was gloomy and without looking at the skies I know that heavy cloud is forming indicating mr.rain is on its way. 

I didn't feel strange because these past few days, KK was blessed with rain from morning till the sun say see you tomorrow. When I reached my workplace around 8.15am, it starting raining heavily but nothing unusual about it as I mentioned earlier.

When I saw these beautiful yet scary clouds popping actively in facebook, aaah... why didn't I look at the sky?

These are not edited, photoshop etc. Apparently, our teacher didn't teach us more about cloud back in high school, bits and pieces I do remember about cloud is the name nimbus, stratus, cumulus, stratus err.. somewhere along that line.

These clouds are known as, Arcus cloud - Shelf clouds :-

'An arcus cloud is a low, horizontal cloud formation. Roll clouds and shelf clouds are the two types of arcus clouds. A shelf cloud is usually associated with the leading edge of thunderstorm outflow; roll clouds are usually formed by outflows of cold air from sea breezes or cold fronts in the absence of thunderstorms.' - Wikipedia








I do not own these photos, I'm not sure who took these pictures because I got them through my friend which also share these pictures from facebook from someone. Nevertheless, the credits goes to KKians :)

Lunar Eclipse

The left and right pictures taken with Sony DSC-T200 and the middle picture taken with Nokia N97 hp.

What a beautiful sight!~ I waited outside my house as early as 7.30pm and took the first picture of the moon using my camera. It was so bright and beautiful. When my bestie told me the eclipse will only started around 10pm, I went back inside.

Around 9.30pm, mum called me telling me to watch the moon right now because it's already half eclipse. Quickly, I went outside and snapped the middle picture using my handphone. Then, the cloud was so thick and I can't see anything (at this time, my housemate had joined me).

After waiting for around 30 minutes, the thick cloud had passed by and finally we can see clearly the red moon! I went inside to take my camera because the sight was so lovable!
