    It is said they ride on the wings of the heavens, the good Seelie Court Fairies of Scottish lowlands.

    Even with grounded feet, Hans, the mind can still take flight. I get a lovely feeling of being aloft from both of your images above.

    Below, something odd seems to be happening with these wavy clouds.

    “Yonder” fairly beckons, Hans, like a cloudscape of mystery waiting to be explored. Who knows what a spirited adventurer might discover?

    Fantastic colors, Michael and Hans!

    Below is one of a more pastel nature.

    Daybreak for Volume V absolutely shimmers with anticipation, Hans.

    The glittering sunrise below brought to mind Sting’s hauntingly tender rendition of the Sumner & Bogdonovic song “Fields of Gold”, though I think this must surely be more than a match for those seductive fields of barley.

    Thank you for your kind encouragement, Hans. Love the idea of SkyDay! Alas, I’ll not be able to share any photos for the project as I’ve chosen not to have a twitter account. In fact, CAS’s forum is the only social media exchange I subscribe to. But the idea of Sky-ku is irresistible and I’ll be happy and able to contribute in that way. Will you participate as well?

    Your “Also In Three Parts” displays a perfect harmony. I love how all cloud types appear to get along with each other up there. Even when they crash, they rearrange themselves, seemingly without effort, and come out okay.

    Can you believe this posting will bring a close to Colour Thread Volume IV? Can’t wait to see what dawns in Volume V!

    A wow and a wonder above, Michael and Hans – as were the photos by both of you featured on the Gallery today!

    Your Crescendo hits all the right notes, Hans. It’s a beauty! Below, in all the excitement, I almost missed the sliver of moon and the little winged one.

    Gorgeous images, Michael and Hans! I especially love the watery feel of the two sunsets above.

    Here’s a little wink with some long skylashes.

    Welcome back, Hans! And thank you for seeing and saying what can nevermore be unseen or unsaid. In fact, the elegant horned creature did not emerge for me at all until you pointed him out! And then he reminded me of another favorite (below) who appears to be on this side of the pond again.

    As for Grumpy. He is such a surprise, I could not help but laugh aloud.

    Love the softness in your flock of Lenticularis, Michael. The ones below surprised me with their silver linings.

    Lovely, George, a complete arc! And that would make TWO pots of gold, yes? You were at least twice as lucky as I’ve ever been to catch both ends of such a vivid rainbow. Still, I can’t complain when there’s a bit of iridescence to be found.

    How fun to see the cloud creatures you’ve captured in the skies above Vacaville, Mischa! Back in March of last year, I spotted a similar Simba at play here in Napa. One might enjoy the whimsical notion of it chasing that little cloud puff across the sky in your direction for all these months in between our sightings, morphing a bit as clouds always do along the way.

    Thank you, Hans and Michael, for all the above. Such beautifully captured cloud formations, each one with its own personality, each one deserving applause. I’d like to be one of those birds on the wire!

    As usual, your photos above are fine examples of working ALL the tones, Michael. It’s interesting to see the effects of contrast tweaking. My iPhone 5s images tend to suffer from unintended noise, but sometimes, I end up liking what emerges enough to forgive it.
