Frankfurt am Main ist mit über 667.000 Einwohnern die größte Stadt Hessens und nach Berlin, Hamburg, München und Köln die fünftgrößte Deutschlands.
Seit dem Mittelalter gehört Frankfurt zu den bedeutendsten urbanen Zentren Deutschlands. 794 erstmals urkundlich erwähnt, war es seit dem Hochmittelalter Freie Reichsstadt und bis 1806 Wahl- und Krönungsstadt der römisch-deutschen Kaiser. Von 1816 bis 1866 war Frankfurt Sitz des Deutschen Bundes und 1848/49 des ersten frei gewählten deutschen Parlaments.
Heute ist Frankfurt ein bedeutendes europäisches Finanz-, Messe- und Dienstleistungszentrum. Die Stadt ist Sitz der Europäischen Zentralbank, der Deutschen Bundesbank, der Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse und der Frankfurter Messe. Durch ihre zentrale Lage gehört sie mit dem Frankfurter Flughafen, dem Hauptbahnhof und dem Frankfurter Kreuz zu den wichtigsten Verkehrsknotenpunkten Europas.
1875 zählte Frankfurt erstmals über 100.000, 1928 zum ersten Mal mehr als 500.000 Einwohner. In der engeren Stadtregion leben heute etwa 1,8 Millionen, im gesamten Rhein-Main-Gebiet 5,8 Millionen Einwohner. Frankfurt ist damit das Zentrum der nach dem Ballungsraum Rhein-Ruhr zweitgrößten deutschen Metropolregion.
Eine Besonderheit Frankfurts ist die Skyline, deren Wolkenkratzer zu den höchsten Gebäuden Europas gehören.

~ Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere,
I've looked at clouds that way.
But now they only block the sun,
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done,
But clouds got in my way.
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's cloud's illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all ~
Some lyrics from Joni Mitchell's beautiful song, Both Sides Now .... I absolutely love this song, she has the voice of an angel and the lyrics are beautiful!!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcrEqIpi6sg
Let me tell you about Sweden
Only country where the clouds are interesting
Big brother says it's the place to go
Too much time to think, too little to do
Too much time to think, too little to do
Captured this cloud formation over Junee, southern NSW, this morning. Moving in a south easterly direction like a huge torpedo. There were two of them but this was the largest and most impressive.

No matter how many times I see them, the stars will never cease to amaze me. The universe is pretty awesome.
(On a side note, this photo made it to the Explore page and I absolutely freaked out. The amount of views on this picture alone is truly unbelievable. Great thanks to everybody who views, favorites, and comments on my photos, you guys rock.)
A nice cloud that caught my attention driving home from work on Friday. Monday blues? Hope you have a good week.
The most interesting part, for me, was after the front of the system went through; the underside of this set of clouds was awesome.
I have always loved clouds..We had some lovely cloud formations yesterday in between storms..
I love this song by Joni Mitchell called Both Sides Now..Here is a verse from the song about clouds; )
Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds * that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all ~
