Fisheye lens view of cloud cover
Cloud cover assessment. Fisheye lens view of the whole sky, showing the amount of cloud cover made up by cumulus clouds. Use of a lens with orthographic projection (OP) allows an assessment of the percentage cloud cover to be made. An OP lens is one where the elevation angle of the object is directly proportional to its distance from the centre of the image. By pointing such a lens with a focal length of 8mm vertically upward, a complete, all-round view of the sky may be obtained. The percentage of the image covered by cloud is directly related to the percentage cloud cover used in forecasting and weather reporting

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing fisheye lens view of the sky, providing an insightful cloud cover assessment. The image showcases the entire expanse of the heavens, revealing the composition of cloud cover dominated by cumulus clouds. Employing an orthographic projection (OP) lens with a focal length of 8mm, this unique perspective allows for an accurate evaluation of percentage cloud cover. The OP lens operates on a principle where the elevation angle of objects corresponds directly to their distance from the center of the image. By pointing this specialized lens vertically upwards, an all-encompassing panorama unfolds before our eyes, enabling meteorologists and weather forecasters to gauge cloud coverage more precisely. Clouds play a crucial role in climate patterns and forecasting future weather conditions. The percentage covered by clouds within this image is intrinsically linked to predicting atmospheric changes and reporting current weather phenomena accurately. Science Photo Library presents this remarkable visual representation that not only highlights different types of clouds but also emphasizes how fisheye lenses can revolutionize our understanding of meteorology. This photograph serves as a testament to human curiosity and scientific innovation in unraveling nature's mysteries.
