Clouds

The first spring rains were constantly dodging, and the winds kept moving the clouds. I was on top of the mountain to witness the clouds not from above, but from a parallel position.

Very interesting layering of the clouds. I like the different textures and colors.

Unique POV. I can't decide where to crop (top or bottom), but I'm tempted to crop off the top light blue and white clouds to draw you into the darker layers, particularly, to the deep blue. On the other hand cropping from the bottom would emphasize the contrast between the light and dark blues with the deep blue streak and gray area in the middle. Something just tells me, that this comp is in 4 or 5 sections, and my mind wants it to follow the rule of thirds. I hope this makes some sense .

Balan, In my younger days I flew for the Army and I would see the layers of clouds from this POV and always enjoyed the beauty of the scenes before me. You have captured this image and my memories so very well. Thank you. I like the feeling of looking for the horizon which your image imparts.

That is a cool shot Balan. The cloud layers here are pretty impressive and they make for quite the view! Good idea!

I love all the various layers and textures in this skyscape. The gentle colors are complimentary as well. a fine image for my tastes.

Nice one, Balan. The softness is a big asset here and really helps to make this image stand out.
