Thanks for announcing the winner here, Laurence.  A new season is indeed on its way. I’m not sure why my iPhone camera gives the sky here the look of a watercolor painting, but it makes a fine backdrop for the light Spring green of budding tree leaves. All best wishes to you as well!

Oh, what a lovely thought. Thank you for this inspiration on expiration!

Thank you, Laurence! You are right, it’s not easy to choose, but “Little rainbow under a big cloud” claimed my vote, while Winter wonderland in the Scottish highlands gave a good hard tug.

Thanks, Michael and Hans! Great textures and formations from both of you above.

Not that I have one, but I can just imagine what a new puppy might think…

Oh boy! Home alone!

Thank you, John! I like to think I might become a bit of colorful icy crystal in one of these bright wonders…at some (hopefully distant) point in the future. ;)

Thank you, Ruth! Your Soccer Anyone captures the spirit of play well.

Below, it looks to me like an arctic fox might be dreaming about accepting your invitation. Or perhaps he is simply…

Dreaming Of The Midnight Sun

Michael, if every picture tells a story, I’m all ears to hear the one that goes with Arizona B&W730. Regardless of what I happen to see with my own imagination*, the textures you’ve captured are exquisite!

Below, another story of… what? A missed connection? A jilted bride? So many possible tales the clouds may tell.

A Story In The Making

* Is that some large curious creature leaning in for a close inspection of someone trying to sneak away?

More molars for the Tooth Fairy?

Forsooth, The Tooth!

Ruth, Field of Dreams is aptly titled. I could enjoy a whole day of daydreaming there. And a clever title for your Harmless Radiation, Hans—with a dramatic image as well.

Only a month ago, the sky looked like a large lake of Lacunosus.
Let’s Dive In!

Michael, your monsoon photos are a drama to behold. Quite the contrast to Hans’s gentle and peaceful Fluffiness and Frayed, as well as Ruth’s Morning Moon. And Gregory, your Cloudlets would make the coziest of blankets. I’d like to nestle in and watch all these moods of sky pass by.

Thanks, Ruth! And here’s a frisky one who looks like he’s just jumped out of a bath and is ready to accept your pup’s invitation—suds and all.

Let’s Shake!

One might wonder what this wizard has in mind. For those not yet under his spell, you’ll find him lurking in the southwest corner, keeping a watchful eye on you.

The ice is nice, Ruth— a beautiful photo. Michael, #728 evokes the feeling of a fun surprise. And Hans, I like the sense of determined intention in Approaching.

A Certain Softness

Great action in A Scape in B&W, Michael. Almost coming out of the image there!

Below, the wind may have been blowing more than the clouds around…

Ruth, Gregory, Michael, Hans, you’ve all been in the just right place at the just right moment. I would especially like to have been on that beach to check out the message, Hans. Might it have simply read, “Look up!”  It’s an extraordinary photo.

In the image below, it looks as if this tree has been tickling the sky.
