RE: The Old Dog Experiences: A Twice in a Lifetime Occasion!

Brilliant shots!

Thanks a lot for sharing this magnificence with us all. This is the sort of things I used to see when I lived in Terrace, British Columbia.

Some areas of our world are prosper for cloud formations and the confluences of three major rivers in the area, on top of being right on the Northwest Pacific Coast, only a hundred kilometres away from the converging currents coming from both Alaska, on one hand, and Northern California on the other where they are meeting in Haida Gwaii, creates some of the most spectacular cloud spectacles I have ever seen. the water vapours from the Pacific Ocean build up against the pressure of the Coastal Mountains stopping the moisture from moving forth unimpeded. From there, the humidity laden air compresses against the mountains and is pushed up by the trend winds. they funnel in the paths of least resistance where the deep river valleys are found and, of course, concentrate their inflow into the main channels. In the case presenting itself in Terrace, BC, it is the mighty Skeena River that offers this opportunity. When deep river valleys aren't present, it is often large wide valley, land masses that are smooth and easy for the winds and moisture to travel through. I think it may very well be the case here in your picture. Let me know... ;)

The one you are sharing with us here is breathtaking and I'm so glad you had the occasion of photographing it, with such quality too!

Thanks again for another great post and occasion to share on this topic of beauty.

Namaste :)
