Primary focus for this thread was originally for HIDs and spotlights. But heck if you have a hand held or an EDC that cooks clouds then by all means... post those pics too!!

Not a very good photo of the 400W HID vaporising the clouds. (Or actually making sure they stay in vapor form.)

Yah, my favorite, cloud shoots are the ones with shadows in them. If I can't quite tell if I'm hitting the clouds I'll aim my light past the top of a tree to see if I can make a shadow, if so, then I'm hitting the clouds:thumbsup:.

You have a link for one of those Supernova ?
 
ez78, that is definitely one of the coolest beamshots I have seen. Seeing the shadow of that power line on the clouds is smokin', thanks!
 
The next time I see that someone has fired up one of those huge searchlights that are visible for 30+ miles (old military carbon arcs that get rented now and then), I'll try to grab a shot of the light hitting a cloud and making a secondary beam from the bounce.
