Wonderful wildness in #641, Michael. And a fine contrast in your next image with such precise looking placement of tiny cloud bits. In Hans’s following image, it could be the same sky with Wind coming into play. Here, below, a bit of order restored.
LayeredA lovely image, Hans. And the graininess adds a fine texture ~~ all the feeling of relaxing by the sea with nothing more to do than watch seagulls soar.
Below, it’s as if the clouds were trying their best to merge both feathers and waves into a memorable montage.
Dark Feathered WavesRemember that alien fellow (six images up) who appeared riveted by whatever he was seeing outside his window? Apparently, that wasn’t the end of the story.
…and then he phoned his friend.
Hello?What a gorgeous image is your Streaming Lights, Hans. Like a fading memory I would wish to never lose. I wonder, do you see a similarity to Gerhard Richter’s blurred portraits? Your image has the same haunting, evocative feel for me.
The image below is from a series that included the Halo/CHA recently shown on the Gallery. But in this original, the car window was up at that moment and caught an unfortunate reflection. Alas, cropping was required to eliminate the distraction.
Audience For An ArcThanks, Michael. In your image above, the rippled texture and translucent blue remind me of glassworks I’ve seen in art galleries where the artist has tried to mimic clouds and sky. Your cloudscape here is exquisite.
Soft Summer CirrusAhhhh, so relaxing, Hans. Those lovely lazy waves must be located far from the waterfall.
Cirrus CascadeDanke je, Hans! And look who I found just yesterday while combing through a cache of cloud photos here. ’Tis another wee character who could be related to your Friendly Dragon. If so, he or she is to be commended for bravery, having crossed the pond at such an apparently young age.
Wee Friendly DragonThanks for sharing with us, George! You say you’re just beginning to learn how to use these tools? Well done! And the waiting for dark image above is absolutely gorgeous. I can almost hear the peaceful quiet in that scene — an added bonus!
Your Friendly Dragon is adorable, Hans! How do you suppose such a magical creature might lose a tooth? Could it be the result of biting down on an unpopped cloud corn kernel? There were a few amongst what dotted the sky on my flight home from Colorado.
If you look in the upper right corner, you might see an anteater, perhaps hoping to try a tasty new treat. He may also have been hoping the wee elephant in the mid-ground wouldn’t toss it all in his trunk.
Cloud SnackersThank you for sharing such beauties to softly close the day, Roma, Michael, and Hans. While I don’t catch sunsets as often as I’d like, the intensity of the one below drew me outdoors just in time a few evenings ago.
So perfectly balanced, Hans. Love the juxtaposition of that single, centered tree with the multitude of dominating cloudlets above it. What an amazing Asperitas event you witnessed there.
Feather And FluffLove the color, texture, and even the agitated feel in Great Start Of The Day, Hans, while the calming brush strokes of cloud in your #640 are the perfect follow up, Michael.
Cirrus Stalks In SummerHa! Hans, you had to be quick to have caught Faster Than Its Shadow! A dramatic composition with the cirrus audience watching the race.
Below, a contrail must have taken a moment to make sure this T was perfectly crossed. While I’ve only recently begun to capture alphabet clouds, I suspect other cloudspotters may have seen A-Z hovering above their noggins.
