What a lovely image of sun (or moon?) in a soft, silken cradle of cloud, Michael. It is lovely!
And Hans, that sliver of moon could not be more beautiful! The incredible detail you’ve captured somehow brings it closer to home—almost within reach.
Half-Sun In Full SplendorIt’s no surprise you can see both creatures, Hans, as you have a keen skill for such vision. As for mood, mine tends to tip easily towards the amusement end of the scale, even in ambiguous situations. If I do happen to glimpse the ‘old lady’ in the mirror, at least she is usually smiling. At nearly 70, that seems to keep the best wrinkles in place!
Congratulations on your wonderful, whimsical Nubecita stories, Juan! It is kind and generous of you to share with your cloud friends here. Muchas gracias!
A grand show(er) of Nature’s beauty and power in your photos, Batman! May you be treated to many more such moments like this, camera(and umbrella)-ready!
And since we’re on a canine roll, here’s another pup who’s just itching to play…
Poodle Puddle JumperTony is grrrreat, Ruth! And how can I have missed that adorable little puppy, Hans? A splendid illustration of how we might see only one thing until another is pointed out! So now, I say danke je for the indelible double vision which I share with you (and all) below.
Cow & Puppy! In The CornfieldLove the soft approach in Smoothly, Hans. Anything that inspires calm is welcomed (and needed) these days. Amazing how effectively a simple image can accomplish that.
Just Drifting ByLove the tones and subtle shadings you achieved in #189, Michael — a wonderful watercolor effect.
As for Scary or Friendly, Hans, I can see both in your fantastic clouds above. But, of course, only one or the other at a time. So much of perception is determined by mood and the mind’s tendencies. If I gaze at the classic optical illusion of the young girl/old woman, what I see first will likely depend on how recently I’ve looked in the mirror. ;)
Below, another ambiguous cloud formation. Do you see a young pup swimming or a two-headed sea dragon—or something else entirely (at least for a moment)?
Either Or Or?So good to see you back, Lawrence! You have been missed. And thank you for the wonderful links — I especially enjoyed the images of Noctilucent clouds which are such a bright delight in early night. May you continue to heal and shine on as well.
Wonderful, expressionistic appeal in #179, Michael. I like the mood it evokes when I look at it—which I’ve done now several times.
Is this how clouds carry their little ones?
Ah, how I wish we could all get along together as well as your farm dog and elephant, Ruth. Now that we’re in that setting, who left the barn door open?
Cow In The CornfieldPS: Enjoyed your photo on the gallery last week, Ruth. So beautiful how the river reflected the soft colors of your Montana sunset.
Love the calm, linear look of #178, Michael. Just what I needed this morning. ;)
Too Many Ideas All At OnceA fabulous launch to Volume IV, Michael! Thank you for leading the way. Can’t wait to see what we shall see.
Excited In All Directions!What a spectacular video!! Astonishing that it was all happening during a single night — Noctilucent, Aurora, even the Big Dipper. Thank you so much for the link, Doctor No.
Daniel, I keep going back for another look at Travail. So ocean-like in the upper half, and convincingly cloud-like in the lower. Beautiful!
And you’ve said it, Ruth! Thanks for sharing the rhythm reset with your lovely Squeeze of a Rainbow.
Michael, love the colors in #821 and the 3-D effect you managed to capture.
