Sure it is allowed, Hans. I have seen this before on the forum, and Keelin has somewhere – it is memorable. We are allowed a bit of fun between the serious business of cloud spotting.
Why did Charlie Brown say ‘ducky and horse’ rather than ‘ducky and gee-gee’ (which is in the OED)?
Keelin says ’round’ of that right hand cloud, whereas Hans sees a crescent. I can sympathise with both. It seems vortex like – I wonder if our horse shoe expert would care to comment?

As moderator Andrew Pothecary once said, it is fascinating where these threads can lead.

There is a word which escapes me for seeing shapes within complex patterns – you must be good at it.
Something you wrote last month and media pix of the LA floods made me wonder about the state of the CA drought. This link says it’s the groundwater that takes most time to recover

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Personal_ComputerAs a non-photographer I can but admire the abstract results in this thread of deep delving into the cloudscape.
But I have a forum query you might help me with. I wanted to link to ‘Tuesdays Cloud’ but the photographer’s name did not come up in a CAS Search. Ian says the photo would have arrived via the Cloudspotter App. So I assume an App picture is just between CAS and the photographer? Unless CAS ask permission to use it?
