Field of Clouds
As I along with many others wait for the Almighty fall colors to arrive, I keep going through summer and late summer shots. This was taken last month September 7th and I don't believe I have shared it here yet.
Late afternoon walking in an area I have been to a couple of times. The clouds started doing some strange things. Lining up in rows almost. They didn't stay that way more than a few minutes but I did manage a couple of shots.

Xti, 17-40L, f/16, 1/30

These clouds are way cool! Gives an Impressionistic sort of feel.

I really like the cloud patterns you caught here Brad. But the strong contrast between the mowed and grown-up fields create confusion for me. Did you happen to take any shots of the grown-up field filling the foreground?

I did not Bill. I know what your saying about the odd contrast. One that I kinda struggle with also. I was out in this wide open field when things developed rather quickly. I found myself going, "dang I need to get somewhere and start getting this". This was about as far as I made it.
Thanks Bill, appreciate your comments.
