Is That A Dog ?
Recently, my wife and I were on a car trip traveling on route 93N to NH. The sky was a beautiful blue and big puffy white clouds rolled by as they formed a variety of shapes. Look over there I said, is that a lion, a dog, or a butterfly?
Our two hour trip flew by quickly as we looked at one cloud shape after another and took over one hundred photos with our digital camera. Later, I cropped the pictures to take out all the roads, cars and man made objects. You can see some of the photos at the link …. http://picasaweb.google.com/markryan312/CloudPhotosCropped
I also remember watching clouds at other times of my life and thinking about how vast the sky is and how small we our in this colorful earth-sky landscape. In my minds eye, I can see those bygone clouds while looking out the window of a plane on a long trip, lying on a beach, or looking at dark clouds on a moonlit night.
Using an internet search engine like Google, I looked up information about clouds and found the links below to be quite interesting. Hope you enjoy the experience. I welcome any comments or corrections.
