Title: The Cloud
Post by: Dave (Isle of Skye) on December 22, 2016, 07:38:33 pm

I keep hearing a lot about the "cloud" on the TV and the computer etc, then I finally saw it floating gently overhead one evening and so I photographed it.

But seriously, I think there are actually three small lenticular clouds floating side by side here (or is it a deceptively concealed spaceship?). The shot was taken a few years ago and quite a while after the full glowing colours of the sunset had finished, to leave these more subtle colours just before it went dark.

It is a relatively old shot and so I wouldn't put that heavy border on it these days as it detracts from the content of the shot, so sorry for that  :)

Nice.

But I think you might need more resolution, because I can't quite read the Adobe logo on that cloud.   :D

I like it. Like the soft colors.

I would love to see this printed for a large lightbox.
Mounted in my living room I could observe the serene beauty of this image while listening to some gentle soothing classical music - a great way to wind down at night!

Spectacular!
