Title: Clouds near New Zealand photographed from Skylab space station
Description:
A group of clouds near New Zealand, as photographed from the Skylab space 
station in Earth orbit by one of the Skylab 4 cremen. This picture shows
how  low sun angles enhance relief, giving these clouds a three-dimensional 
appearance. This photograph can be used to study the line of storms seen
here  at sunset. Relative heights of individual cells can be measured, as
well as  their relation to the surrounding clouds.
