I enjoy looking at clouds, and every so often I will see something I find interesting, like Halo's, sundogs, strange cloud formations like the following I shot one day near the end of summer while on break at work:

Thought I would share :)
 
Cool shot! Those clouds make for some amazing sunsets/sunrises due to how high based they are. The sun is able to get under them as it sets/rises and create some awesome colors.

I need to post more shots like this...as I too shot all kinds of weather shots..not just extreme stuff.

I did catch a really bright Sun Dog on Sunday too...but I committed a chaser sin....forgot to put the CF memory card back in the camera...arrrgggg.

Things would be pretty boring around here if it weren't for good ol' altocumulus, fortunately there is plenty of Rocky Mountain wave action for them to play in and we get treated to a real nice sunset once in a while.
Last night this stack lit up just as the sun set.
