Minutes before a hard rain pelted down over the streets of Oslo.

Looks like an IR image?

No IR, Akira. Just a quick snapshot while I was looking for a shelter for the soon-to-appear rain.

The last one is IR, however.

Thank you, Birna.  I thought that was vice-versa.  Hope you could find the shelter!

Yesterday there were nice clouds all round the world. When you posted your photo it was round midnight in my time zone (maybe 9 am in yours? Anyway, full sun)
Around 22 (in my time zone), but with a beautiful moon, and earlier in the day with cotton clouds (second one is IR). Same point of view, from my window facing South.

Thank you Peter.


In photo #508, is it vapor from one of the nuclear power stations along the Loire? Reminds me of the sector between Sully and Sancerre...

It is nice that they didn't shoot you :o, nuclear plants are sensitive targets...
