Good to keep that steady, clear-eyed vigilance, Hans! For indeed, what is in pursuit might very well be below, and that tiny bite just ahead won’t prove very filling.
A Little Taste of MoonLove the champagne celebratory feel of #739, Michael, while the composition and subtle colors of #740 continue to tease my sense of pareidolia. Some dreamlike creature keeps trying to emerge. I quite like the mystery of it.
And the boldness of those Large Cloudy Brush Strokes is inspiring, Hans. I feel as if I can almost hear them.
Below, the mood is more on the quiet side I think.
Repeated MurmuringsFantastic cloud sculpture, Michael! At first glance, the image reminded me of dramatic works by Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Then pareidolia took over and now I see a little bear being held gently aloft in a large paw. I like both impressions very much.
Further venturing on this tour, I came across a couple of architectural wonders.
Greek Corinthian ColumnsOh, but the beauty of it, Hans! Love your Wind And Rain And Shine’s full spectrum of dark to light with just a hint of color. I would still dip my toes in the sea there just to have the added sensation turn it into a memory-making liminal moment. Even though they would surly be curly with the cold.
CurledMichael, you continue to polish the grays to a gorgeous gleam. #188 is particularly impressive. And I must admit to a little giggle when pareidolia took hold and something (I shall not say what) emerged. I keep going back to it because each time I look, I feel greeted with a little smile.
Here is an undecided one from a decidedly busy sky day earlier this month.
Not Sure Which Way To GoCrescendo welcomed, Hans! Who could resist that beautiful build up of clouds? And Micheal’s #738 provides a lovely transition to calm restored.
Seems like everywhere I look these days, there’s a little reminder of how the sky holds me sway. I think I hear Kate and Anna McGarrigle singing…
Heartbeats AcceleratingThe tide’s been out a long time on this topic. Now waves return to wrap up of Volume II ~~~ Will we be carried out to sea again?
The Force is definitely with you, Michael!
Below, another image from that wildly windy day that blew us around here recently.
Hans, your Clouds That Look Like Nothing At All (recently appearing in the Contrail topic) gave me a giggle. Whatever appears to be leaping out of water in the image below might be Nothing At All As Well. But as you have a markedly keen skill at pareidolia, perhaps you have an idea as to what it might be, or an explanation for its behavior? You don’t suppose something could be after it, do you?
Love those soft, subtle tones in your Swirling, Gregory. And the bright halo in your #503, Michael. And I keep scrolling back to the gorgeous hues in Purple Without Rain, Hans. A dramatic contrast in feel to what you’ve captured in French Sunset. That thin, grey arcing accent is a nice touch!
Here is one that caught my eye just a few weeks ago.
Finally catching up with this colorful thread and enjoying the wonderful variety show.
Gregory, your Cirrus intortus gives me shivers of delight. And Michael, your #728 is simply stunning and lovely layered #733 is a favorite. As is your Play Of The Winds, Hans.
Caught this tiny glimpse of moon in its slow passage through late afternoon Cirrus. Of course, it was actually the drifting Cirrus that rendered the illusion.
