Cumulous cloud- Lake Baringo Kenya
The Great Rift Valley in Kenya is an impressive cloud generator with a low flat & hot bottom up to 75 km across bordered by cool highlands. Typically, such towering cu-nim clouds occur in the evening, triggered by 'valley release' on a grand scale as cool air rushes into the Rift from higher elevations displacing the lower hot surface atmosphere at sunset. Lakes, old volcanoes and a range of colours in soil and rock add to the thermal mix making Lake Baringo the very best place I know for enjoying sunsets.
