I think everyone takes some cool sky shots as the cloud patterns are so interesting. Thought I'd share a few.

    Wow Swartzy........ love that little window of blue sky in your first shot, with those menacing grey clouds almost covering the entire sky.
    They all look good...... nice series thumb.gif ..... Skippy (Australia)

    Nice pics, they really have a mood to them.

    The toughest thing for me when shooting sky / clouds is capturing the depth that you see with the eye. So often what I see and what I capture are not even close to the same thing. Looks like the foregrounds you used really helped. I have a boat load of captures I should process.

    Thanks for all the kind words!
    I seriously appreciate you taking the time to comment. I suppose my passion is right along side with yours in capturing images that tell a story/mood. You all do such a wonderful job of that and I learn new ways of seeing things by your example. This is a great place with great people! Would be nice to meet you in person...then shoot about 4 cards of shots...Laughing.gif.
