Patricia L KeelinParticipantFrom last November…
Waiting Quietly For Winter To Take Hold
Patricia L KeelinParticipantAh, I can see why that’s a favorite, Michael. The optical illusion has my eye flipping between interpreting the altocumulus as foreground shadow and background pattern. Fun!
And I like that subtle horizontal pattern of little “flames” you caught in Something’s Burning, Hans. Glad you caught it before the cumulus doused it.
When You’re HotPS: Hans, can you see the head of Aeolus in that previous image? He’s quite subtle, but there ~~ hovering in the upper right quarter, just to the left of the dark right corner. His rounded head of hair is white and he’s looking down with right eye closed, the bridge of his nose softly highlighted, mouth open to sing his Ode to Wind.
Patricia L KeelinParticipantTalk about unexpected! I’ve never seen anything quite like your #801 and #802, Michael. They are fantastic! Was the entire sky filled with this spectacle? I can’t imagine how astonishing that would be. Hope to see more of these if you have a collection.
Aeolus Hovering
Patricia L KeelinParticipantLove the sense of reaching to explore and the beautiful color you’ve captured here, Hans. The Spectators appear eager. I hope they found what they were searching for before moving on.
One Left A Footprint
Patricia L KeelinParticipantLove your French Asperitas, Hans! You can probably guess what it reminds me of. As for the image following it, I can’t help but think of a charcoaled artist’s paper that has seen one of those soft, kneaded erasers go tumbling across it. The resulting illusion of texture is fantastic. I like this one very much.
Patricia L KeelinParticipantLike a dance of waves upon an icy shoreline…

Patricia L KeelinParticipantThank you, Laurence! I can not imagine how emotionally overwhelming seeing such an Aurora display as this would be. It would surly have knocked me right off my feet! Stunning and unforgettable.
Patricia L KeelinParticipantBeautiful layering in your Untitled wrap up of Volume XII, Hans, and a fabulous, feathery start to Volume XII! Who knows where the Wind will take us next, but there’s no doubt it will be a fun ride with plenty of surprises along the way.
Expect The Unexpected!
Patricia L KeelinParticipantHygge, so delighted to see your images posted. In the two above, I can imagine the sweet contentment of just watching that slow drift take place.
Feathered Drift
Patricia L KeelinParticipantWill wonders never cease? Apparently not with this B&W thread. Love the fantastic textures in your photos above, Michael. And that hovering smoothness of Dark Ceiling is completely captivating, Hans. As for the image below, what caught my attention was the way it bounced.

Patricia L KeelinParticipantOh Micheal, I hope the data recovery is successful for you and all your photos can be saved (documents too, of course). Evidently, you are still looking up ~~ and we remain the lucky beneficiaries of that! I never tire of seeing the waves of Asperitas that you and Hans post here.
Patricia L KeelinParticipantHans, your Shadowing image has all the elements of an intriguing dream. I keep falling into the space in between the soft-edged iridescence and the crisp, silver-lined cloud with its deep dark shadow, where something(?!) will soon unfold.
And Michael, Arizona Color #611 is one I want to dive right into. I would hold my breath in anticipation, but why? It’s (mostly) all air up there, n’est-ce pas?
Lots of rain here lately, and a bit of hail too. But the sky captured below promised something else.
A Soft Rain’s A-Gonna Fall
Patricia L KeelinParticipantHans, is that Jason’s Golden Fleece you captured on the 25th of January? It’s a beauty! As are the posted images following it. Nice work, all! Below, a smeared sunset announced the end of a rainy day here.

Patricia L KeelinParticipantLove the title of this new topic, Hygge ~ ~ Thanks for launching it! Perfectly fitting for some of favorite cloud formations. Below is one from my archives that left me swaying to some inner melody.
Thanks also for the term “n-dimensional algebraic projective geometry”. What a mouthful! Too big for my nescient noggin, but I do love the sound of it. Next stop will be a google search to learn more about it.
Mood Music
Patricia L KeelinParticipantAh! I’d not heard of that reason for pattern seeking, nor of Dr. Hannah Fry, so thank you, Hygge. As Hans has oft noted: once seen, unseen cannot be! And the old adage comes now to mind that, at least at times, we see what we want to see. Happy Valentine’s Day to all!
