Just in time for St George’s Day, this cloud appeared looking like a Dragon breathing fire.
It was captured at dusk by photographer Nicolas Locatelli, 20.

Sadly, however, it wasn’t over the green and pleasant land of England, but Briones Regional Park, California.

Locatelli said: ‘When I saw the image I was pretty intrigued.

‘The way the sunset lit up the cloud at the mouth of the dragon made it look like flames were coming out of its mouth.

‘The image was timed perfectly too. The image was taken with a zoom lens on a stormy day so the clouds were in the distance and moving quickly so I got really lucky taking this picture.

‘When my friends saw the image, I asked, ‘what do you see in this picture?’ and they said ‘definitely a dragon breathing fire’ and ‘it’s the dragon slain by St George.’

Does it look like a dragon breathing fire to you?
 
Yup. Or, King Kong's head exhaling fire.
 
It looks more like Godzilla to me, with it's short rounded snout.

But super cool nonetheless.
