I love this silhouette and the clouds - a great shot that shows how a not-cloudless sky makes things far more interesting.

Thanks for pointing out those mammatus clouds from a couple of years ago. We see them occasionally here in Colorado, usually after a severe thunderstorm has moved over, but not normally lit up from beneath like that.

A holy hush is present in this photo.

SKY LOVE

Sky above, sky aglow,
Sky of rain and sky of snow;
Sky of hail, sky of sleet,
Sky cavorting o’er the street;
Sky of black, sky of blue,
In all seasons I love you!

C'est beau de le voir en silhouette, du coup on s'apperçoit mieux de l'importance du batiment entier.

Ah, you were in my neighborhood. I pass by St Marko's every day. Only last week I visited the little Russian Ortodox church behind it for the first time.
Nice photo, Bibi!

SUNSET

  A beautiful urban sunset over New Belgrade. The 'smoke' from the stacks on the left is actually just steam from the heating plant....
