An abundance of weather phenomena can be observed by anyone who makes the effort.  A casual look into the sky may reveal clouds and blue sky.  BUT an educated, analytical look may reveal billows or waves, halos, sun pillars and a host of other amazing features that give us information as to the nature of the atmosphere.

In this section are some of the meteorological phenomena I have capture on film to share with you.
