The Weirdest Clouds that You’ll Ever See

really weirdest clouds i ever seen here

Amazing!! Great shots!

Awesome clouds! Nature is fascinating

Nice collection!

Wow. Those are some impressive clouds. Great compilation.

What a fantastic collection! Thanks for taking the time to put them together. The fourth image with the US and Texas flags is just amazing.

Those are wicked. Clouds have inspired me to write poetry before, not design directly yet…hmmm Got me thinking!

Those are some really weird looking clouds… Some of them look as if they have been photoshoped though

Acts of nature… Simply love this posts… Thanks for sharing it ^^

Thanks for sharing these. One of the pics looks like the clouds flow with the shape of the mountains.

wow.. this is REALLY weird ^^

Cool, I’ve never came across any one of above clouds in my life yet.
Regards.

Some of these are crazy

Great post

I liked the one with the weird cloud.

Great collection!

photoshop

Weird indeed.

Google search: haarp

Also, do some research into weather modification.

Your reality isn’t what it appears to be.

just thought i’d add an image i took a while back

Great collection! I’ve got a nice photo of a single cloud in a shape of heart taken a few weeks ago. Maybe it’s not as strange as your ones but looks unusual. Unfortunately, it was taken using mobile phone so its quality is poor and it’s noisy. Too bad. I would post it here otherwise to extend your collection.

Anyway, thanks for sharing all these photos!

wow

Its fantastic

Beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weird indeed!

Wow, that is way kewl dude!

I love taking photos of the sky… if I was to look up and see some of these sights, I’d be over the moon!

Terrific post!! If you want to see another “roll cloud” or some “Morning Glory” that turned up in Australia, check out a post my mate Max did: http://magazine.gritfx.com/morning-glory/

Would really like a small blurb and explanation around the meteorological forces that cause each of these weird clouds.

Incríveis imagens, algumas inacreditáveis!

Some of these picture are extraordinary, especially the two caps on top of the hill

Wow this site has gone downhill fast.

How is this relevant at all?

These are ones of the most impressive pictures I’ve ever saw ! o_O

Big thanks !

These weird cloud formation often happen around high Mountains, look at Ararat, Kilimanjaro & Mount Everest. The cloud formations seem to be clinging to the peak of a large mountain, this is because these super mountains have their own microclimates, They are hot at the base and cold at the top. This phenomenon is called Orographic lift.

Wow!!!! Amazing and thanks for sharing.

http://netdna.webdesignerdepot.com/uploads/clouds/4.jpg most shocking one.

I didn’t think a “mushroom cloud” could qualify as part of this list!

Have a look at this time lapse of clouds, it appears as if the light has refracted from it creating a rainbow effect.

This remaind me one nigthmare i have a lot T_____________T

I’ve seen some of these clouds before at different website but not as many as you have here…great collection, very lucky for those who happened to be at the site of the cloud formation. Thanks for sharing!

thanks for sharing
great collections

Its just mind boggling…zapped!!

amazing gallery!

Awesome collection! BUT….when you see the clouds that look like egg shells….RUN…they are usually followed by a tornado!!

Nice shot of pictures

What an Incredible planet we live on.

We should hang on to it.

nah! those are really weird

These are awesome! I’m left speechless. I heard about those mammatus clouds that enveloped New York City sometime back, but everything else just blows your mind!

Meanwhile, not long ago, I managed to catch this magic lamp in the sky http://www.flickr.com/photos/unlistedsightings/3904256998/

The fourth photo looks awesome.

those are crazy. heres one i took not too long ago that looks similar to some of these.

I was lucky enough to have my camera around when looking up I saw this huge “question mark” (totally unretouched)

Funniest thing is that I was thinking “What am I doing here ?”

Cool collection.

Nature can be so beautiful… great post

Some really amazing clouds. It’s hard to believe that all of these are made only by nature

Photoshop?? it’s amazing! Incredible effects!! I don’t have words…

I find it hard to believe that some of these aren’t photoshopped .. yet …. nature really is filled with extraordinary, almost miraculous things. Sometimes reality/nature is even more extraordinary than imagination.

those clouds are so amazing

Is it Photoshoped?

wow,amazing,freaky,..& beautiful.

Clouds? I don’t care about the clouds… i care about what is hidden inside these so-called “clouds”. *suspicious*

Cool images. Thanks!

..fantasticas nuevas formas de nubes!.desde niño me gustaba observar las diferentes formas de nubes,formas de caras gigantes con enormes narices,formas de dinosauriosy en los atardeceres las nubes tipo cirros y estratos con las las diferenres coloracones que da el crepusculo cuando el sol va desapareciendo en el horizonte,vaya!!

Great shots, but some of them do look like fakes… but i guess they are not

Wow. I can’t wait to find a way to use these somehow in my next web design.

I can’t beleive that clouds could be so intriguing……… great shots !

Here’s one that appears to be a combination of mammatus and something else. You have my permission to use.

Here’s an arcus shelf cloud I photographed a while back.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/justinwoods/4039959602/

hhaha some of them looks like ufos.

cool:D

wow – some of those are really scary

Fake!

Hi
wow Thanks
Im from iran GREEN for freedom

Using HDR to accent the could photography is some what cheating. I love the pictures but one doesn’t need photoshop to take great pictures of clouds.

Actuly the first pic isn’t a normal “cloud” its a incredible high Wave that made it float while the rest of the water fell down ;D

Perfect pictures, gratz…. just i want say gratz!..

really nice

I experienced mammatus clouds after driving through a crazy storm in Montana last year where we nearly died.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/amaliachimera/2671659422/

And then this photo ended up being used for the Bowerbirds’ new record “Upper Air.” So rock on, awesome clouds.

I took a photo of a weird cloud too, some years ago:

Magnificas imágenes…

Saludos cordiales desde Málaga.

God is a designer!
Thanks for this nice post!

NoOssa!
Maravilhoso

Amazing cloud formations. Are these clouds for real or are some of them manipulated by photoshop ?
I mean, seeing this one – http://www.flickr.com/photos/lsydney/2209154898/sizes/l/ , it looks unreal doesn’t it ?

Thanks. Made my day.

Thanks for the incredible photos!

I used to live in storm country so I’ve seen formations like a couple of these and they’re always the kind that make you stop and stare.

Maybe we ARE being watched!

very cool collection!

aliens, ruuuuuuunnnnn

Fake

Here’s a cloud with the shape of Romania:

amazing photos – thanks !!

Some of those pics look like end-of-the-world clouds. If I’d seen them for real, I’d definitly need a change of underwear… very creepy.

These are really amazing pics.

Very cool. You should go to Calgary and see their Chinook clouds. Amazingly distinct.

I’ve never seen clouds THAT cool – amazing pics!

Very cool post. I have seen a lot of them, but the one’s I haven’t seen are unbelievable.

A picture I made more than a year ago in Tallinn, Estonia:

http://www.shotsbyme.com/161/

No photoshop tricks or long shutter (normally a long shutter speed could create a shot like this, but this one had a shutterspeed of 1/40).

Damn, Are all those for real? Some weird formations you have their. I read the Post about the tubular clouds, No explanations have been identified as of now Its pretty weird.

Nice roundup though, keep it up bud.

oh! very nice

Here you can find lots of more cool clouds!

I am a Nature Photographer, in my web you can see a photograph of an storm in a beach with a very strange cloud formation.
Here´s the web
http://www.naturalezainvisible.com

Here´s is the photo:
http://fernandoalvarezcharro.googlepages.com/Tormenta_En_Laga.jpg/Tormenta_En_Laga-full.jpg

some of them look ’shopped’
most are good indead

I saw this one in Iceland: http://gallery.elan.rulez.org/korn/Utazasok/Island-2007/Best-Of/Andras%20kepei/Strokkur%2C%20Geysir%2032-andras.jpg

And these pictures were taken of a storm over Budapest, Hungary: http://gallery.elan.rulez.org/korn/Idojaras/Vihar/Lagymanyos%2C%2020040506/

Not as spectacular as most of the ones above, but still interesting.

Nice images. I photographed some funny clouds in the Syrian desert earlier this year:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/tom-allen/3259318871/

Man some of these clouds are out of this world I have never seen anything like them! Its hard to belive that first cloud pic is real!

i bet that the 7th one was an invisible space craft (for real)

Awesome!

wow, thats trippy stuff.

Had a great time browsing that huge collection of unreal cloud formations. Time to go back and click through to see them on flickr.

Those clouds are so amazing…

Not surprising, if any ne would care to look up every now and again you may
see commercial jets dropping chemical trails that may cause these strange sights
plus many that you cannot see.
I dn’know, just a thought maybe perhaps.
Ooh nice Mohamadi sleepin.

Here you can find many more cool clouds.

There is no evidence that these clouds are natural. Are they photoshopped? I don’t know.

The weirdest clouds I’ve ever seen and that I won’t forget! Awesome post!

Fantastic! Never have I had the opportunity to see all these formations in one place!! Keep it up, great place to show budding pilots how its like.

Freaking super AWESOME!!!!~~~~())))(((((0)))))~~~~~lloorr11

In the recent months at 6:30 a.m., I spotted several cloud formations in the shape of a helix, I had never seen that before and don’t even know how to find out how that happened. These are fascinating.

Had a great time browsing that

wicked. some of those are really insane.

Fantastic!…

Wow, this is gorgeous! Those guys should sell the photos at Pixmac and make some money

There are a few of those clouds in there that if you see you want to head in the opposite direction real quick.
