Clouds Amaze Me
By Don Iannone
Clouds amaze me
how easily they make friends
with other clouds, but
always maintain their independence, and
how they put themselves
at the mercy of the wind, that
keeps them from becoming
too set in their ways like mountains.
Clouds amaze me
how they drift in wisps and billows, and
how they dress up as scowling old men
with stately white beards, or
naughty elephants standing on hind legs, or
even battered pirate ships
on a tumultuous sea.
Clouds amaze me
how they seduce my imagination, and
how they make me want to dance, and
how they make me want to be
something other than I am,
if only long enough
to know what it’s like
to be someone or something else.
Clouds amaze me
because they can be whatever
they want to be, and
finally just like good poems, they
leave the right parts of the story untold.
playing around with little lomo tools...not good quality but a nice mood and a lot of fun.

Een bijzondere wolkenpartij boven de Achterhoek. Onder in beeld nog een stukje regenboog. Dit zijn zogenaamde mammatuswolken. De naam mammatus is afgeleid van het Latijnse mamma, daarom worden ze ook wel borstenwolken of uierwolken genoemd.
A contrast in sunsets here. This is taken from a little hill called Twt hill in Caernarfon, across and above the castle to another small hill with a little tower.
After a chilly clear morning ,dramatic clouds began to build …and even a few rare raindrops fell…Very few ! :-(
The clouds break on a bleak January day to reveal this rather inetresting cloud formation, caused by the wind.
I just love blue skies and fluffy clouds. Had probably 100+ shots on the flight back and only liked 2. This is one of them, on my way home from Brunei. Not the conventional blue skies shot for once :)
Weekend is near, woopie!
Sunsets can be unpredictable...this one looked good 10 minutes before good old Sol hit the horizon ...but then suddenly lights out, storm clouds prevailed. Nice cloud formation though.
Moon rising over clouds lit up by the sunset.
