   These are mammatus clouds made largely of ice crystals and usually portent a fierce storm - Greate image

   This is an awesome cloud formation. I have never seen this before or even heard of the name “Notta Gnome” cloud formations before either. Fantastic picture, love windmills. God bless you.

   Great picture, as someone posted before, there’s a dramatic sky. It looks like the judgment day arrived for the windmills.

    Looks like you grabbed this photo just in the nick of time, Steve. It’s a spectacular, powerful shot and probably the most unusual backdrop for a windmill picture that I’ve ever seen. Nice work!
