"Eye Over Flagstaff 1998"


Strange Things Are A-Foot Over Flagstaff, AZ

Pretty weird, heh? The shot above was taken over Flagstaff, Arizona while we were on our way up to Flagstaff from Cornville, AZ to see a movie. I happened to have my camera and took several shots, this being the most attractive or visually appealing.

Just A Fluke?
At first, for several years I thought that shot was one-in-a-trillion, but now I'm not so sure. Scroll down to see other shots over Flagstaff...of course it's just coincidental, but kinda spooky.

"Eye Over Flagstaff 2003"


Black & White Shot?

I think not! This shot was taken about 7 a.m. just south of Flagstaff on I-17 late winter in 2003 and it is a color photograph, although you wouldn't really know it from most of the picture content, heh?

Not As Good As The Picture Above It
I have to admit, the picture is not as convincing an eye as the first picture, but none-the-less, you can still make out an eye to some degree...if you squint, have a few beers and load yourself up with some drugs. (Jus' messin')

Double The Intrigue

Yikes! Not only is this the third picture I've taken over Flagstaff, AZ of what appears to be an eye in the clouds, but there are two distinct eyes in the same picture.

Common To The Area?
Taken on June 23, 2004, this picture is making me think that there are unique wind patterns over the area that create such phenomena. I have several other pictures where an eye is visible if you really look in the clouds.

Discovered Accidentally
I didn't notice the "eyes" in the clouds within the other pictures right off-the-bat until I was looking at a thumbnail (small versions of a picture) of the pictures (see below for a thumbnail).

Quiz Time
Do you see the eye in the clouds in the picturette below?

Just To Prepare You

The small picture above is designed to prepare you for the same picture below (the larger version) where it's more difficult to see the "eye" in the clouds.

"Eye Over Flagstaff 2004"
(Looking South-West)


You Gotta Squint

If you squint or cross your eyes, you can see the eye within the clouds of this sunset taken on the same day as the picture above it (looking North-West).

This is looking East That Same Day
In fact, the image above is from the same sunset but looking East as the picture above it. The wind was going North-West at the time which makes me think that the two "eyes" were created from the same "jet-stream" of air overhead, but that's me speaking out of ignorance, of course. I'm not a professional meteorologist (weather guy).
