Not your typical cloud formation

Ameel Khan August 4, 2022

The clouds at sunset were really something today. This photo can’t express how bizarre, but gorgeous the sky looked.

Edge of a thunderstorm

Ameel Khan January 5, 2022

Caught the edge of the thunderstorm that passed by our suburb a couple of hours ago.

Photo of several layers of clouds covering half of a bright blue sky above a house. The lowest layer of clouds is quite dark, while the uppermost layer has rays of sunlight breaking through the gaps.

Sunday evening dramatic skies

Ameel Khan December 6, 2020

Dramatic skies on a Sunday evening in Melbourne, Australia.

Photo of a partly cloudy sky at sunset. The colours of the clouds range from white and grey to bright yellow and golden. The light blue of the sky peeks out from between the gaps in the puffy, many-layered clouds.

Bands of rain clouds

Ameel Khan March 13, 2020

Gorgeous skies in Melbourne today, with bands of rain clouds coming through in waves over the course of the afternoon and evening.

Cityscape from a tall building, showing a dark band of low-lying clouds in among lighter clouds higher in the sky.

Sunshine on a rainy day — but just on that one spot behind the building.

Crepuscular rays FTW!

Bright, golden sunset

Ameel Khan May 7, 2019

Melbourne’s sky has been fantastic to see and photograph these last few days. Like today’s golden sunset.

Bright, golden sunset as seen from Docklands, Melbourne.

Also, I discovered my office building casts quite a large shadow when there’s a bright sun behind it.

Bright reflection, big shadow, puffy clouds.

Skies clearing

Ameel Khan May 6, 2019

It’s supposed to get sunny (sunnier?) in Melbourne today, but I have to say I’m enjoying the partly cloudy morning so far.

Dark clouds rolling out of the city during my morning commute. Spectacular.

Fluffy clouds as far as the eye can see.

Battening down the hatches.

Dark rain clouds approaching from the west — starting to block out the soon-to-be-setting sun.

It's raining in Sunshine

Ameel Khan April 9, 2019

Looks like it’s raining across Sunshine this afternoon. Or maybe that’s Deer Park? I don’t know — it’s difficult to judge distance from this far away without an obvious landmark!

Looking towards Sunshine from the 29th floor of a building in Docklands.
