Clouds at dusk
Clouds at dusk. The setting Sun is obscured by a layer of cloud (altostratus translucidus) that is advancing towards the coastline. The low, elongated dark clouds are stratocumulus cumulogenitus, which form from cumulus clouds that spread out at the end of the day. The highest clouds are cirrocumulus sratiformis clouds. This pattern of cloud types may indicate an imminent change in weather. Photographed in Dorset, UK

Advancing Changing Climate Cloud Coast Coastal Distribution Dorset Evening Meteorological Meteorology Pattern Patterns Setting Sun Set Types Weather
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Clouds at Dusk" captures a mesmerizing scene as the setting sun is partially concealed by a layer of advancing clouds along the coastline. The cloud formations showcased here offer valuable insights into meteorological patterns and potential weather changes. In this image, we can observe various types of clouds that contribute to this picturesque display. The low-lying dark clouds stretching across the sky are known as stratocumulus cumulogenitus, formed from cumulus clouds spreading out towards evening. Above them, we see cirrocumulus sratiformis clouds, which appear in high altitudes. These distinct cloud types suggest unstable atmospheric conditions and may indicate an imminent shift in weather. Photographed in Dorset, UK, this stunning image not only showcases the beauty of nature but also serves as a valuable tool for meteorologists studying climate and weather patterns. As the sun sets on the English coast, it creates a breathtaking backdrop against which these dynamic cloud formations unfold. Science Photo Library has once again captured an awe-inspiring moment in nature's ever-changing canvas with their expertise and precision. This print invites us to marvel at the intricate dance between light and shadow while reminding us of our planet's constant evolution under atmospheric forces.
