the pictures are gorgeous. it seems enormous, but, it's not, it's all there, all the time. what we can see, now, is the water vapor that gives some visual definition to the air and its movement. and the water vapor's there all the time, too. it's not leaping into the cloud from somewhere else. it's there all the time, like a wet rag has water but when wrung shows the previously hidden water. what I see there is the edge of temperature and pressure gradients.

it is truly beautiful.
