Sorry for the ambiguous thread title.

Does anyone else like pictures of cloud formations?

Not a skyline, no trees or anything else - just the sky & clouds.

Vapour trails included, as are other things like aircraft or hot-air baloons.

Oh, and the Moon.

My mrs reckons I'm getting weirder (she's probably right).

I have taken a few (not very good as I still haven't found time to learn the art).

This is one of my favourites.




So, please post yours up smile


(P.S. if you have a skyline, please post it as I like those as well).

A neighbour's recently expired father was a meteorologist and took thousands of photos of clouds. In fact there's a boxful of glossy b/w aerial/satellite photos about to be thrown out going back to at least 1970.

So you are not alone. Well you weren't, but you are now smile

Great pics Chris. What made you go B&W for those shots? Was that done in processing?
