ParticipantThank you, Michael, and gratitude to everyone for the joy and warm camaraderie we continue to share here. Wishing moments of magical wonderment, light and peace to all!

ParticipantWonderful photos above from above, Hans. Michael, Ruth, Gregory!
One night prior to the greatly anticipated conjunction of Saturn+Jupiter 2020, this cloud fellow was apparently already waiting and ready for a kiss. Actually hadn’t noticed him until I downloaded the photo.
It’s Just A Kiss Away

ParticipantIs that you, Blitzen?

ParticipantOh delicious! And such a fluffy crust!
Patricia L Keelin
ParticipantSteven, Ruth, Gregory, Hans: WOW x>4! Your latest offerings make a wildly beautiful and delicious collection. And kudos to Hans for today’s featured Cloud of the Day!
Below, perhaps a heavenly princess wearing a peach chiffon gown was in a hurry to get home to her castle in the clouds? Alas!
Snagged

ParticipantThanks, Michael! I must say, your #712 looks delicious! In #713, it appears the clouds are being pushed to the right by a very determined wind. Nice tension in that one.
Below, perhaps a bit too much tension…
Snapped

ParticipantWhile the cloud below is not a precise fit for what swam out of Zorro No Tonto, Ruth, who knows what it might look like when it comes around again?

ParticipantOh Hans, I love these dramatic photos of yours by the Sea! I can almost feel the sand in my teeth.
Some similar colors below from across the pond with winds wisping up a bit of gray cloud. Or is that a bit of the hair on my head?
Whatever Wisps

ParticipantGreat variety in the latest three above. Hard to believe the sky can feature such diverse cloud compositions.
And wow, Hans, what a photo! Rippledness is extraordinary. Do I hear a rush of water melodiously burbling its way down those furrowed steps?
Below, a rather large sheep laid down on the roof. At least, I think it was a sheep…
Wooly Wonder

ParticipantLove those gentle waves, Gregory, and the subtle-colored layering in Pinstripes, Ruth.
That wintery blue in your #927 and the movement in #929 give me shivers (of delight), Michael, and #928 is another beauty with its wiggly cloudlines.

ParticipantDefinitely sensing the coolness of Autumn in the most recent photos above.The Wind in painterly moods.

ParticipantThanks, Michael, for your compliment on the Bundle further above. Your #709 reminds me of the dramatic skies of Colorado. Powerful palettes with all shades ‘tween black and white. You capture them so well.
Ruth, your Cow Fog photo is hilarious. LOVE IT! We have that kind of “oreo” cow here in Napa also, but usually sans fog. The mistiness seems to suit it well.
And Gregory, I like the white bird contour in your Sunlit Cloudscapes.
The Lushness of Plushness

ParticipantThanks for sharing this link (and the one to the image on APOD as well), Laurence. The flock of starlings was so dramatic, it almost took my vote. But, like you, I had to go with the golden glow of that misty sunrise in Holbeach with the one tiny bird in the upper right corner. So lovely!
Patricia L Keelin
ParticipantLovely Twist, Ruth. That subtle layer of fog adds a nice depth to the scene.
And ah, Gregory, you must have worked a bit of magic with your kindness in posting that beautiful sunset for me. Amazingly, there was something dramatic at both ends of the day here! So thank you x 2!

ParticipantSince I’m usually not out during these photogenic bookends to the day, I especially appreciate all who continue to contribute to this beautiful thread. So many truly stunning images from everyone, and some I can’t help returning to see again and again (especially Michael’s #605, Hans’s Breakthrough, Ruth’s Getting Ready To Dance… and the river of mirrored clouds in Gregory’s Light Fog…) for the feelings of rapture they never fail to deliver.
The closest I’ve come to the twilight zone (well, at least in reference to clouds) is this photo below with just a hint of evening’s entrance from a couple of weeks ago. Wish I could have lingered longer to see it take on more classic colorations.
