    It is a pity: no chance for Cloud Doodles over here except for rare occasions. I love these doodles (very ingenious name you gave them, Michael!) for their curious and elegant features. Likewise the Holmboe instabilities. I appreciate also your extensive explanations about your creative process, Michael (in former threads and and in the thread “Cloud Doodles”). Many thanks for taking the trouble to write it all down (or “up” considering the internet way of sharing).

    In april over here ….

    Below and Above, together it makes a lovely impressionistic picture, Keelin.

    Oh, the cumuli with their smooth and quickly vanishing haircut. It seems to hang there so still. Nice! Over here the weather gave us a lot of cumuli last week, also of the nimbus kind. Great cloudscapes and some iridescence in between. I started the thread with one of the shots I took. Here is another one.

    Cloud Doodles! A very applicable name you gave to these fine cloud/drawings, Michael. And it is nice to read about the circumstances you pictured these Doodles. Their forms are intriguing. I can´t help to think about the outlines of small asperitas formations. You write they are the remnants of Altocumulus stratiformis. Maybe there is some similarity in it?

    The Holmboe´s are coming in little groups that seem to shadow each other. Great phenomenon!

    The impressionism in Greetings From A Sunrise has clearly your signature Michael. Great composition!

    Apparently there are still some challenges for the developers to come with the necessary water to put this kind of fire out, Keelin. Fortunately the logging in is straightforward again and there are no caching issues anymore. I noticed Hygge e.o. had problems to log in last weeks, which explains why so little attributions appeared on the forum except for the Black & Whities.

    Ablaze is really fiery Keelin! Here is some water to douse this fire, so don’t Abandon….

    Yes! From black to white en vice versa. This must be the burning thread in this thread.

    I wrote I’d come back on the fire theme. Keelin started with wind and fire, now you lit the fuse and here it is…..

    I agree Michael, the overall effect of this thread is as important as the individual pictures. I have this also with a CD. It is the whole thing that has its appeal (or not) as much as individual pieces.

    It is magic Michael to unveil these structures in stratus. Usually stratus shows no more than one tone of grey and you have to search seriously for any structure. Very nice.

    Here the structure was evident although fine.

    Give it a try! This I spotted very recently in a sky dominated by lots of mighty cumuli of many kind.

    Ah, the pictures are restored!  I supposed we can safely post new pictures again. The site is improved in my opinion. The performance is better and the caching issues are solved, so no difference anymore in what you seen being logged in or not. Well done!

    Nevertheless: ERROR: Your reply cannot be created at this time.

    So I have to be patient – and that is not easy for me, believe me –  before posting something new.

    And … many thanks Michael for your extensive explanation of the way you develop your pictures. I do it myself in a rather simple way adjusting the levels and some automatic repair or adjustments functions for levels or contrast, but my development process can be improved for sure  seeing what Michael has done done to make “Herald”. Fantastic result!

    The “Wind And Fire” picture of Keelin is also great. The title is very applicable and I like to continue on the fire theme later. Can’t wait ……

    Thanks for your explanation about the burning and dodging, Michael. I haven’t applied or explored that functions yet with lightroom. Big Sky. I just keep on learning.

    Terrific Herald! The message of the herald must be joyful. Love it.

    It’s A Beautiful Day
