Love that percolated look of your Arizona B&W#181, Michael. It reminds me of my mind in the morning—and that first cup of coffee bringing everything into focus.
Happy to report a smoke-free sky (at least here in Napa) today and the first sighting of clouds in weeks. Needless to say, I ate it up!
Layered DessertMichael, I can sense the slow, quiet movement of clouds in Arizona B&W#180, especially in that open space at the top, bits of fluff floating in to join the group. Nice!
The photo below gave me a feeling of sitting on a high branch, looking down at the feathery head of an owl.
Bird’s Eye View Of A Bird BelowIndeed, Ruth! And not only are some of the images humorous on this looks-like topic, they often spark little stories that take delightful turns in the telling…
I think your Gargoyle may have so frightened the cloud fellow below that he took off at a run and… oopsie! He’s taken a tumble (stepped on a bit slippery cirrus perhaps). But entering the scene (upper stage left) is a compassionate bear who looks ready to lend a hand (or a paw in his case).
Oopsie!Fine textural captures, Michael, sandwiching Hans’s Lurking Creatures. Hope they come out to play! I imagine they might have some interesting tales to tell.
A Teller Of TalesThank you, Laurence, for your kind and caring thoughts. Feeling so fortunate to be in a safe area and able to help others in need. I keep imagining how healthy and vibrant the earth, oceans and sky would be if we put our hearts and energies into protecting it. Seeing the beauty of clouds here on the CAS forum, the countless colors and infinite shapes they take on as they dance around the world we share, is a daily infusion of bright hope for a more peaceful planet and people.
cloud lovers we are
mesmerized by their beauty
always looking upBeautiful displays above, Ruth and Michael! Here is one that has been hiding awhile in the archives.
Just A DollopAlways, Ruth, especially for your very cute Schnauzer! And there’s room for even more. Apparently, the heavens have provided an escape route and safe haven for the two lucky creatures below.
Neither Escargot Nor Cooked GooseThank you, Laurence! Those are ten beautiful photographs. Alas, being outside the UK, I could not cast an official vote. Were I able, my choice would be the fogbow over the sea. The serenity and freshness of it is so appealing, especially these days with fires burning up the western states here. The sky has been a featureless, yellow-ash-grey for weeks now, deeply disquieting and disheartening. So grateful for all the firefighters who demonstrate bravery beyond words, and also for the generosity of CAS and its forum members whose sharing never fails to uplift the spirit!
And, indeed, the most welcomed illumination to dawn within a dream, Lisa! Your halo photo is a lovely symbol of its transitional impetus. Just imagine the moment it shines a light on…
Day ResidueMicheal, B&W#176 is compellingly strange (in a good way) like hypnagogic imagery. Where would that dream go from here? I can only imagine! And I see the synapses firing in your next photo.
Now to dream of the sea ~~~
Against The TideSurf’s up for your ghost, Dave, with a spirited wild ride! And Ruth, can I order a pair of cloud boots like the one you posted? They’d have me singing a new tune like Hans’s Cheerful Bird. I suppose I could add them to my Wish List for Santa, but it might be too late to start behaving. For some of us, it’s a challenge! Like the wee dragon below who appears to be getting a fiery parental lecture and…
A Little Time OutCatching up with the potpourri above feels like a nice bit of virtual travel. Speaking of which (and scrolling back a bit), rest assured, Hans, there’s no need to worry about Cthulhu. Rumor has it he’s in a mellow mood now, having just returned from a relaxing little get-away.
Mini VacationWonderful images above! Love Unrest—and all the rest. What next might we see?
Misty Mystical ManifestationsA beautiful blue in your AZ Color#900, Michael. And I like your description of it, Hans, followed by Fluffy And Bulbous, which looks as if it would stay aloft even on the gentlest of breezes.
DriftingsPS: Nice to see the variation of your Winged Horizon on the Gallery this morning, Hans. Congratulations!
