Check out this cool funnel cloud captured from the Isle Of Wight, UK during the Summer of 2007 by photographer Mitja Vodeb. This image has just appeared on the UKWW. There are others of the funnel from this time but this one is new to me. I can't recall if this stayed as a funnel or became a waterspout. In any case, it looks great.  Smiley

Although they're the curse of the amateur astronomer, clouds can nevertheless make for a great picture as illustrated by this funnel one. I think the background setting in that shot compliments the cloud structure too.

Thanks for posting it on behalf of this Mitja Vodeb guy, Martin.

Yes, agreed, the setting really makes this photo - right time, right place.
