Think of a world without clouds, – nothing, total emptiness.

Hi Remo,

This is why the Society exists – to fight against the banality of blue sky thinking – this is what is quoted in its manifesto (or words to that effect).

I could never live in a country where one does not see cloud / clouds and every day always confronted with “wall-to-wall” blue boring sky.

I agree, – and as you say, the meaning of the Society is to fight against “boredom”. Blue sky thinking is also a challenge in life in general. We definitely need clouds.

And is that the beginning of an infinity symbol at the right of your cloud, Remo?

[Patricia L Keelin]

Agreed, indeed! I can’t help feeling something essential is missing when the heavens above remain a blank palate.

One blue sky day, there suddenly appeared a single, lonely cloud head. It looked about to say something and I wondered if it might summon its friends, speaking out in an eloquent stream of cirrus, a grand puff of cumulous, or maybe even a delicate arc dappled with brilliant points like the parhelic circle Hans posted yesterday to the B&W thread. So many possibilities!
