I have always had a fascination with the sky and clouds, whether stormy  and foreboding  or interesting in color or form . So, earlier in the year, I scouted out a spot where I could get a reasonably clear shot of the sky at sunset or when storms approached from the west. Unfortunately, time and circumstance did not allow me to be there as often as I would have liked but I did have some fun and feel like I got some interesting shots as a result of my efforts. I hope to continue with this subject in the Spring.

    You have the key to good sky/cloud shots. There has to be some interest. Interesting color, interesting shape they need to have interest! These shots do! I'm sorry but I have seen so many sky and sunset shots on the site over the years that do nothing for me. These are good examples of sky/cloud shots that have a good focal point and interest. Okay off my soap box now......

    Ok, Penny says no sunset shots. It's a good thing I take mostly sunrises. 8^) Gotta agree with her though, these are really nice.

  • Excellent storm cloud shots. I too do many sunrise and sunset shots, and have seen many here. There are no two alike....ever....and there is always room for one more. I seldom make a negative statment, but for me, lose the frames.
