Shot with iPhone SE Gen2 in panorama mode.
Fabulous photo! I'll have to give a try to my Iphone (SE Gen2 too), I generally distrust smartphones as photo-takers...but maybe I'll discover a hidden treasure!

Saturday was a windy day, and it brought about this lenticular cloud at sunset.

Ciao from Massimo

Great images Akira and Massimo - I especially like the panos.

A few grabs from yesterday - rural cloudscapes.

Thank you, Massimo and Lars!  Currently I don't have any wide lens that covers wider than the long side with my 45/2.8, so iPhone SE proved the proverb: "the best camera is the one you have with you"   :D

I posted the same scene to the "Stitched Photo" thread, but I also like the detail of the clouds captured in this single frame.

A good...and different...addition to our collection of cloud images.
Edit: I prefer the more spacious composition in the stitched images thread. :)

Thank you, Keith, for commenting.  I agree.  Unfortunately, the attached 200mm lens didn't allow me to go any wider...

D810 and the AI Nikkor 105mm f/2.5.
One picture taken is far better than none!

Guys, i can't match your beautiful cloud panos. I'm trying with a cliche "from-the-plane" shot. On the way to Madrid, Spain quite some years ago. Probably somewhere over south of France or north of Spain.

Akira,  These are magnificent.  The second like a backdrop in a Hayao Miyazaki animation.   Cheers,  John
