Love the dramatic sky you captured in Rack Them Up, Ruth. And Blue Plate Special is a very clever title for the sky’s daily servings.

Below is more of a Blue Paint Special, apparently done with a very worn brush.Weathered Paintbrush

Looks delicious, Ruth ~~ and even more appetizing with that tiny dash of salt! Love the whole serving.

And thank you for kind words, Hans. Here’s another recent surprise…

Love the whispering pileus in #133, Michael.

Calm And Wavy is just what’s needed now, Hans. But once things settle down, here’s a little feather to give another tickle.

The Tickler

[Patricia L Keelin]

You’ve a keen eye, Ruth, to see be aware of beauty that’s Barely There. And I see you caught some splendid Asperitas too as featured recently on the Gallery. Congratulations!

Thanks for kind words, Michael! And talk about shadow work. Love what you’ve captured in #131.

Blown Away

[Patricia L Keelin]

You’re so right, Ruth. All creatures great and small, sneaky or otherwise, enjoy a tasty snack.

Just A Little Appetizer

Michael, love the motion of that ocean of cloud you captured! It makes all the senses come alive.

As for Sticky or Burning? A wonderfully intriguing photo, Hans! And a good question. If it’s not too much of either, it might make a nice home for some underwater creature.

Below is one I think would find it attractive. It reminds me of another I spotted and posted almost exactly two years ago (further below). A relative perhaps?

Swimming Through Uncertainty

Cheers, Ruth ~~ I toast to your colorful catch!

Yes, Hans, you are right about the radiant beauty above being halo segment. And what a beauty you captured! Worth waiting for and more. Thank you for sharing the three versions so we can see what’s really there.

Shredded Iridescence

[Patricia L Keelin]

Ah, Peter, you are so right about a blank canvas for dreaming and then the surprise of what we might see upon it. While I’ve never conjured anything as extraordinary as what Hans has captured and shared with us on this topic, I’m keeping my eyes on the skies ~~~ while my mind unfurls.

Heading Somewhere?

[Patricia L Keelin]

Oooh ~~ thanks for the warning, Hans! Might it be from the same session as your recent Gallery iridescence? I see some pearly teeth on that one as well.

Your Spilt Milk fits perfectly with this current flow, Ruth. No tears, I hope.

And another one rolls in…

Incoming Tide

 

[Patricia L Keelin]

Ah, Michael, I clearly see what you mean! Thank you for the excellent re-cropping suggestion.

And Hans, I think you may also be right about that fallstreak hole—a bird-created portal to who-knows-where. I only hope your Sticky cloud wasn’t waiting on the other side! It has a seductively soft appeal.

If you’ve ever sneezed into a bowl of powered sugar, this next image might look familiar.

Achoooo!

[Patricia L Keelin]

No question about it, I love the latest additions here from you both, Hans and Michael. A few days ago, we had similar skies here, and it looked as if a bird had dropped right through the large patch of cirrocumulus.

Off To Explore The Great Blue Beyond

[Patricia L Keelin]

Wonderful recent additions from all of you!

Duncan, that’s a gorgeous skyscape you’ve captured in 50 shades. And Ruth, I never get my fill of your tranquil vistas over land or water. Michael, fantastical things seem to bloom above your head. Lucky for us, you keep your camera within reach. And same is true for you, Hans. I see both the Horse Head and a soap-bubbly rabbit heading in the opposite direction! Also love the joyful reach in Mirrored Patterns.

Rather than resurrect the Waves topic from way back when, I thought this one could crash here…

Double-Decker Wave

[Patricia L Keelin]

So true, Ruth. It’s great fun to let our imaginations off leash. And clouds certainly provide endless opportunities for play.

Hans, I remain in complete awe of your Crow Vortex images — so amazing! I have yet to see such wonders here, but I’ll keep looking.

And Ruth, yours come in Pink! ;) Love the wide ladder, by the way.

This one was barely there…Pinstripe

 

[Patricia L Keelin]

Looks like those clouds are heading off to join some kindred spirits, Ruth.

While taking the photo below, I didn’t notice the cloud comma above a subtle heart emoji. Could it be a fragment of message written on the wind?

Love letter
