Hi again, Rosie
I have recently been thinking much about your Cirrus cloud photo (featured in the CAS 2016 calendar for the month of April) and your comment that your good man, of necessity, had to learn about reading clouds and what they might portend during his fishing expeditions – many so hazardous and life threatening at that.
I listen to the BBC’s Shipping Forecast every day / night with the sincere hope that all on the sea will be ok. We are safe on land, others not so…
That said, your photo brought to mind a piece of music which I have a great fondness for called, “Eternal Father, strong to save, Protect them where so’er they go…”. It is evocative and moving and reminds us of the perils others on high seas are faced with and dealing with.
Here is a link to that music.

Hi Rosie,
Indeed I do. Just the thing to have given the awfully drab grey days we are presently enduring. Your photo gives one hope for better and more clement weather to come.
Laurence
Still searching for the Pot of Gold I’m afraid!
Thank you for the congratulations, I was delighted to have my Cirrus chosen for the calendar, I couldn’t believe it was good enough for inclusion. Do you still have it as your desktop?
A nice and evocative shot, Rosie. Did you find the fabled pot of gold?
As an aside, I was very pleased to see your photo of the beautiful Cirrus clouds included in the CAS 2016 calendar. Congratulations and well done. You must be very pleased!
Laurence
