Hans StockerParticipantDonatella your contrail rainbow is amazing. What do you think: is it iridescence or some other optical phenomenon?
Taking the red eye is very subtle Ruth.

Threesome
Hans StockerParticipantThat’s a great shelf cloud on “roll with it” Ruth. One almost can see it move over the landscape.
Keelin, your Long Awaited Arrival makes me realize that the presence of clouds is so much different everywhere. On one place too much and on the other too little.
Richard, I love to repeat your almost poetic title of your latest: ‘view over the willamette from the land of the luckiamute kalapuya to the land of the santiam’. A great composition as well.

A Lot Of Cloud
Hans StockerParticipantI had to laugh seeing your Kiddee Matinee, Keelin. Very funny and beautiful as well. The delicate popsicle by Ruth must have been meant for the kids, but the mystery animal was too greedy.

Looking Into The Sun

Haarlem Asperitas
Hans StockerParticipantThat are two amazing close ups of Billy, Keelin. Complete with goatee!
Followed by a great specter by Richard. Your “emanations from a think tank” is quite surrealistic and funny as well.

Fading Pattern
Hans StockerParticipantI love your contrail of swans Ruth! It is an example of things that look like clouds. Ingenious.

Criss Cross
Hans StockerParticipantThe first contrails were observed in world war I in 1915. A plane must be sufficiently high to make the water particles from the airplane engines form ice crystals that make up the contrails. Nowadays the planes are at 10 km high where the conditions are often favorable for the formation of contrails. A little googling will learn you a lot about the subject or check the Cloudpotter’s Guide by Gavin about the subject. That is fun to read.
Hans StockerParticipantWow Keelin, you ended Volume IV with a beautiful Wild Horse Dreams to continue this new Volume V with a evenly beautiful cow jumping Over The Moon. A great start of a lot of fun to come.
I also want to mention from the former Volume the fanatastic Valkeries by Richard and Keelin’s Cleopatra’s Barge. It was also a pleasure to see that Blue-Eyed-Billy reentered the scene and I almost thought Ruth caught him also but it turned out to be a seahorse. It had only one horn short to be Billy. All great captures.
This one seems to be amazed about what she (?) saw in these threads.

An Amazed Face
Hans StockerParticipantWhat a great start for Volume XIX Keelin with Onward. But before going on I must refer to your Floccus In Bloom in the former Volume. A favorite of mine for sure as is “a twister of sorts” by Richard, Arizona B&W #207 and #211 by Michael and the delicate Curling Event by Ruth. It is so much fun to scroll through the former thread, but now onward!

Big Wipe
Hans StockerParticipantSome really great B&W’s to admire last week. Ir by Richard surprises again with the sunflower.
Is it because of the Olympics that I see swimmers from below in #211 by Michael? Love it. And a Small Flock Of Floccus by Keelin as well.
An the there are the riny curls in A Curling Event by Ruth. The KH provides a lovely detail in a great view.

Spilled Milk
Hans StockerParticipantWow, that is a great and impressive monsoon sunset you spotted Michael in #728. Saturation by Ruth is a lot less alarming and has reassuring soft colors.

French Sunset
Hans StockerParticipant
Messy Waves
Hans StockerParticipantYour boomerang is magical Richard. Infra red photography really adds something to the mystery of a B&W. And I love your ‘twister of sorts’ with the windmill in front, seemingly accountable for the swirling cirrus. Great composition!
And then there is cottage cheese and a Stairway To Heaven by Ruth. Watching it, I immediately hear the sound of the song.
Thanks Keelin and I don’t have an answer to your question either. Nevertheless your Chenille Blanket will suffice for all possible answers I suppose. Quite comfortable after dancing and for covering as well.
Michael’s #207 is beautiful but also has something uncanny. Here the Chenille Blanket will do for some covering. Great tension in it!

Bridge Without Carrying Capacity
Hans StockerParticipantThis ir-scape is another surprise Richard. The subject and the technique fit perfectly well here giving a beautiful result in B&W.
