Skywatch Friday - Old Buttermilk Sky
Altostratus (mid-level) clouds. We call this a buttermilk sky, or in England, a clabbered sky. Old Buttermilk Sky is also an old song by the great Hoagy Carmichael, but of course you knew that. If not, give it a listen HERE.
I am partial to viewing beautiful clouds, excellent picture.

ReplyDeleteI didn't know it was called a Buttermilk sky - but what a great name to go with your lovely shot.
ReplyDeleteI much prefer "buttermilk" to "clabbered" sky - I hadn't heard of "clabbered" but I used to dance to Hoagy Carmichael's song - when people danced properly and not just jigged about :-)
