I love seeing patterns in clouds and this collection almost made a heart :-) I love clouds...I take so many pics of them when we go for drives, and then they sit in my computer...so I decided to share a few.
For those who are not in the know about filters for cameras - oh yes we use those to distort reality too ;) A reverse graduated filter is simply a filter which darkens the sky and then also has a even darker band that can be aligned with the horizon to really reduce the exposure on the sun (the brightest part of the scene) during those sunrise and sunset time, those leave one with a nicely exposed frame.
Now, i don't have one of these since they are pretty specialised and really can only be used in a few cases anyway - you can also replicate the filter with a couple of normal graduated filters...
anyway there is a point to all that, there are some mornings when the cloud and sun gods shine upon you (hahaha did see what I did there ;) ) and you get a scene like this where the band of cloud along the horizon provides you with a natural part of the reverse graduated filter :)
nicely played clouds and sun :) its a bit of boring composition but I could not really find anything else nearby to jazz it up and by the time I would have climbed down the rocks the light could have been all gone :)
#隔壁的鬧鐘叫起了我，走去添起已煮好的粥，冰鎮一碗，
.. 再削上一盤水果，夾滿一碟小菜，
.. 架起蒸鍋，煮起開水……，
.. 眼前，朦朧，模糊，猶如視窗在慢熱中的搖動……
#這天的正式開始，得需要等上好一陣，
.. 帶著水汽再一次出現的那刻，就是，
.. 衝到桌邊，吞咽，收拾，
.. 瞟一眼，微明的東方，想了想，
.. 抽出身旁一本閒書，慢慢地讀到上班時分……

……哇，轉眼就要下班了，收到一則簡訊「處理好的菜，在冰箱里，看著辦，不等我」
.. 回「嗯」
#這天，又是第一個到家，
.. 竹竿上掛滿了衣服，還沒乾，撐出，去約見斜陽西下，
.. 衣櫃門上，掛著熨好的衣服，放進……平淡简洁中..

Another version of an earlier photo but this time instead of HDR I just played with it in PhotoShop Elements. No layering this time.
Taken in University Place Washington at the Chambers Bay Golf Course.

First morning after descending from Mount Kinabalu. Did a long exposure of the fog sweeping in, if look closely, you can see the light rays between the trees!
Thanks Nora for arranging the accommodation here for us, beautiful place to watch the clouds and Mount Kinabalu.
