Michael LerchParticipantJames, Just can’t wait for the new Star Wars movie can you?…btw,,whatever you do, don’t post the pic on twitter or facebook..We’ll be invaded by aliens within minutes.
Michael LerchParticipantThanks Gentlemen! I took this pic not quite a year ago. I can still remember my thoughts on it,,unique juxtaposition of directions with the undulation on the mid right side,,kind of explaining the physics..Winds in different direction at various altitudes. I still feel this is nature expressing it self..or Natural Expression..that maybe humans are growing away from further and further..Yet I put the shot thru digital processing and edit it to my needs and wants..oh well..Whats Next? i took that pic almost a year ago. So all the pics I’ve taken between then and now are whats next. Thanks Again!
Michael LerchParticipantMaribel..Yes I do have Sunset and Sunrise shots that are so over the top, they look fake. I Live in Phoenix Arizona. They made a Sun set/rise part of the State Flag. So there is a certain amount of pride with our set/rises. And with that comes the outrageous and gaudy,,which I kno from experience to be real, but the colors are just …gaudy. One can dial the saturation dowm during the processing of the pic. Or as I’ve been working on..go with the outrageous. Since the color is beyond the normal parameters,,then why not the perspective or construction of the shot be different? Being creative with the outrageous is what I Suggest. Below is photo of a sunset I took years ago. I tried to do a Rothko version of it.Imho the Sunset is almost gone and the abstraction has become real..CLOUDS!

Michael LerchParticipant..hhmm..There is ” twist” to the contrail “pole’..oh well.
Michael LerchParticipantHeres a barber pole one for you hygge

Michael LerchParticipanthygge,,Thanks! the wind dynamics alone are enough to ponder for a good long time as they create undulations 90 degrees opposed to already created undulations.
Michael LerchParticipantHans, nice!,,The wind is having fun sculpting the cloud!
Michael LerchParticipantDaniel , I Trust you and yours are well. Monsoon season here in the desert is best time for cloud spotting. But even here weather can be dangerous. Micro-Bursts that can break telephone poles, hail, local flooding and lightning make for serious cloud spotting.
Michael LerchParticipantHans..Nice echo of undulatus in the middle.Subtle indeed!
Michael LerchParticipantThanks Noctilucy!..I had just about given up on thinking of a title for the shot,began to mentally walk away from it, when it just popped into my head. Of Course, Weill/Brecht Classic!
Michael LerchParticipantThank You Hans! Thin undulations are fascinating especially in black and white. I never see with my own eyes what black and white pulls out of the clouds. In my attempt to give clouds an ” Organic” flavor ,these thin layered undulations give unexpected dimensions

Michael LerchParticipantHa! I have photographed at least 7 or 8 of these harbingers of the unfortunate over the years. Yes, as you see the ” horseshoe ” has the open end facing down in most pics. Supposedly, that means all the luck and good fortune within the shoe escapes out the open end facing down. Yet I’ve not noticed any change in luck or fortune after capturing a pic of one. Which reminds me, a couple of weeks ago I captured the last moments of one with camera and see!, I have yet to win the lottery. No Change there!
