I have seen pictures of that type of cloud before... they look kinda scary to me.

Nice photo, I have seen pictures and time-laps movies of them before but these have always been from ground level.  If I wasn't trying to do six other things I might give them a shot in TG.

Definitely a cool image, here is a link to a site with more images (check out the hang glider, must be some good lift).

Just a warning: Some of the images on this site are faked or misplaced, faked on the tornado page and misplaced on the bottom of the Cumulonimbus Anvil Head Clouds page, that's not a Cumulonimbus -it's volcano and my guess is it's Redoubt in Alaska. There is probably more, still some inspirational images on the site.

Found it on google - http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/Imgs/Jpg/Redoubt/dds39_063_large.jpg

Thanks Glen.  Cool images.

Is there a bad cloud? I've seen pics of real clouds which I would have thought were not possible. It opens up a lot of T2 possibilities.
