Title: Hole in the Sky
Post by: Hermit on October 22, 2017, 11:31:09 PM
I was at a small grassed airfield waiting for a friend to return from a glider flight.
I noticed a strange formation within the clouds and took this shot.

Then after several minutes I looked up again and noticed further developments, so I took another shot.
By then my friend returned and I changed my focus on taking photographs of the glider landing.

...I find our sky's so fascinating, so full of mystery and wonder...

Yes, I agree. I have a favourite sunset cloud photograph which i will post later.
But in the meantime here is another hole eye in the sky.

During a flight from Brisbane to Singapore I saw this outside my window.
The photo was heavily cropped for the hole was a long way off.
As you can see, there are other bits of cloud in the distance within the hole.

This is what I think is termed a punch hole, seen over Dorset, United Kingdom earlier this week

That is great looking photograph.
Thanks for providing its descriptive 'punch hole'.

Nice photograph.
Interesting whole all punch hole https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallstreak_hole (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallstreak_hole) images shown here are the same cloud formations, i.e., from sheep wool to whispy hair.
