How like a cloud (to keep changing into different forms)
An astonished face in the 3rd frame & a fish with shrimp eyes and big lips in the 4th didn't show up for me until I was putting the images together. This is the same cloud in its original sequence of changes over only a couple minutes. I had never been much good at seeing forms in clouds until I discovered it's much easier with photographs because it takes so long for anything to appear for me. Clouds themselves usually change too fast or just don't look like anything but one or another type of cloud to me.
flickr's new layout makes the index screen size for this so tiny that it makes no sense. This is definitely one of those pictures that must be enlarged to see what it is.
By the way, the title (How like a cloud) is a play on Hamlet's words to Polonius, unless my memory is way off (which is quite possible).
This is another experiment, partly to see how many have the interest and patience to click for at least one size increase and compare the changes in the cloud. If I hadn't taken the pictures I'm not sure I would go for it. My guess is that fewer that 10 will try it and then I'll delete it before long.
23 May 2006. At the moment the views count has reached 19, not many but already twice what I expected. So I'll leave it in longer for some others to find out what this row of 4 small white smudges is.
5 July 2006. I'm absolutely amazed this has managed to get 100 views. So it will stay in.
