Clouds... the Beauty of Nature

You know I'm always walking around with my face pointing to the sky.... whether to look into the tops of trees, or to check out the clouds, or even see birds wheeling overhead. (Or hey, maybe a UFO or two!) So I wanted to share my latest photos... the sky has been amazing in this turbulent summer/fall weather.

And yes, E, I used a filter! I didn't have to, though. It just added that touch of drama that I was feeling at the time that I shot these photos. (Last evening, around twilight.)


p.s.


I got the job I just applied for! Woo hoo! Yay!! It's part time work, so I should be able to keep happily blogging away... but now I'll also have some money coming in. I'm super excited! Thanks to those of you who crossed your fingers for me. ;-)

30 Day Photography Challenge: Day 3

CLOUDS

I went out for a walk, and finding none, decided to recite one of e.e. cummings' poems for you.

and here are the photos I took (two years ago in the Bahamas) to go with the poem.

If that isn't an edible color palette, I don't know what is...

As for what I photographed when I was out and about, looking for clouds in Bethlehem, here is what I took:

As you can see... a bright blue cloudless sky. It's very windy out, and therefore, no clouds. Funny enough, it's been cloudy every day before this, for weeks. Figures.
