We may be experiencing some really hot temperatures here in New Mexico this month(100+F/38+C), but did you know, it's also the rainiest time of the year here too? The locals call it "Monsoon Season", we call it "Pretty Cloud Season."
Just look at all the beautiful cloud scenes we have viewed in our
backyard:
The clouds in the morning give us some lovely sunrises.
But the clouds in the evening during Monsoon Season are epic!
Look at all the layers of color in the photo above.
The pinks, purples, yellows, blues all look wonderful with the greens of the trees!
Sometimes we see the moon rising through the clouds.
When a storm moves through close to sunset, the skies put on a show better than any fireworks!
The prettiest of all backyard views is always
a rainbow after the rain has almost stopped!
We are so very thankful to have such beautiful clouds this time of year!!
Thank you Brian for hosting the
Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!

ReplyDeleteI always say clouds dress a sky - nekkid sky may mean a fine day, but let's face it, one can grow tired of all that expanse! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
The clouds are just gorgeous with so many pretty colors!
ReplyDeleteWe are still having a break from the heat which we love, but not much rain. Enjoy those beautiful clouds. They are amazing!
ReplyDeletethis is our time of rain season but not happening. those clouds are gorgeous and from your own back yard makes it even better. NM skies look just like Florida Skys...
ReplyDeleteYou do have some beautiful clouds around you. We think you two are as beautiful as any of those cloud pictures, too.
ReplyDeleteLulu: "Those are some pretty clouds ― we hope they bring rain and cooler temperatures, instead of just rain followed by steam rising off the ground!"
ReplyDeleteOMDs/OMNs I have never in my 1000000 years seen a cloud the color of the one with the moon....Thank your photographer for these.

We love to see the pretty clouds! We get a lot of interesting and colorful clouds here in WNY too.
ReplyDeleteThose clouds really are pretty and so are you two girls. I sure hope you don't get monsooned anytime soon. Thanks for joining our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
ReplyDeletePretty cloud is a better name.
ReplyDeleteNone of us has ever seen a sunset quite that pretty, Rosy and Sunny. Hoping no lightening and thunder with them. Oh, and did you see the flying birdie in the first picture.
ReplyDeleteNo, Chia, I'm not bringing the laptop over to the kennel for you to see. You've worn me out! XOX Xea
