I like it, Mike.  Good graphic.

Thanks Keith, ten minutes later these puffs of cloud had dissipated, very odd!

[Mikes]

Clouds dyed in dawn color.

Nicely caught, Akira. I had a grandstand view of that spectacular sunrise as we flew into Haneda at around 4.30am - it was quite something, but it was soon absorbed into the haze and clouds of a very hot, humid day!

Akira - beautiful colour.
Keith - great drama and contrast.
Mike - very nice cloud pattern.

A humble summer cloud drifting by.

Lars, great composition, but the whole thing seems to have gone a touch green!

Thanks Keith! ... probably a mild case of post processing paralysis  I do recall some R, G and B sliders being moved a bit randomly and I've messed with some screen re-calibration as well.   

Here is something different to look at.

Wow, nice clouds everyone!

Here's reaching for ...

Lars, thanks!  Two of your most recent images area fantastic!

Hans, well "spot"ted!.

Here are my takes.  Mesopotamia glass cloud and a piece of cloud in the green frame.

Many thanks Akira!

It is obvious where the Mesopotamian glass makers got their inspiration - well spotted.
And a nice little (or barely) cloud. Great composition with the foliage frame.

Lars, thanks!

A larger ensemble.

[pluton]

Excellent match of subject shape and framing/aspect ratio, Akira.

[Akira]

Thanks, Keith!  Indeed I was trying to balance out those aspects.

A tad like a musical score
