      It is a bit of a coincidence to have to start a new volume for the Color Thread. Unfortunately I missed a lot in the former Volume, but it is great to scroll through all the magnificent images. Here is one to start with in this 16th volume. Wow, the numbers are growing.

      We have had a cold spell here in the UK while the jetstream keeps the cooler air around us. It’s warmed up these past few days but the skies have continued to be crazy – what a great time to have joined the Cloud Appreciation Society! :D

      On my walk home from work today, some gorgeous cotton wool altocumulus (though some of the cloudlets were much smaller than my finger, I don’t think they were higher), and some fast moving fractus lower down.

      Paula, Nice blanket of altocumulus . I always have fun when the altocumulus  show up.. Ruth the upper sonoran desert has had 3 days of  threatening weather with rain making it to ground last nite and cooling things down a lot. A tropical depression over in the Gulf of Mexico is feeding  moisture in to the desert here..muggy..

      Michael, #165 is just so gentle. I keep coming back to it for another breath of calm.

      Ruth, love your Love the Rain. So dramatic! Did you get wet?

      Keelin, fortunately I didn’t get wet.  Watching weather at a distance has its advantages, plus running outdoors.  Two palettes are just enough color.

      Micael, #165 is one smooth image.

      Nice shot with good detail in shadows Ruth! Yes Ruth, should be  grays not purples. Im using Apple desktop photo process which is bare minimum. Color saturation is a problem when going for grays because Apple uses color to achieve gray rather than a grey scale..apparently… Below is the final of the series and maybe the one I like best.

      Thanks Hans. For me,peculiar is one of the  first aspects a cloud shot must have  before pulling the trigger. That makes things interesting and  your  shot of the wind blown cloud is interesting!
