No PS here. This is what I photographed early one morning, winter this year.

Bretti Clouds

Wasn't aware of the Sept challenge when I took this one, but I think it works. :)

Minimal clouds = maximum astronomy fun! :D

I walked outside one day to be greeted by these clouds. They were very unusual and reminded me of cotton wool...

I took this whilst flying across Australia ...

I saw an elephant, others see a crocodile. Either way when I looked out the window it caught my eye.

A shot I took from my front verandah a couple of years ago after a pretty nasty storm passed through the lower blue mountains one late afternoon.

Taken at Bryon Bay, this reminded me of Mark Rothko's work. They often suggested to me the transitions between the land, the sea and the sky.

A few sun lits clouds from the front verandah early in the morning.

Found this one lying on the 'Shelf'. Part of a massive Squall line crossing the Gold Coast captured with 55mm FL with the Cararra Stadium Light poles and 'yes' that is a Jumbo Jet flying right into it to attempt landing on Tugan Airport :screwy:

Haven't posted for a while but I love clouds, during the day only of course.
This is a back veranda shot that I really liked for its depth and drama.

Taken on an iphone in November 2011 from the lookout above Garie Beach (Royal NP). It was quite an intense storm with hail and thunder.

Pity I didn't take a video as it was rotating quite quickly.

The clouds that moved in at the exact moment of totality during last years total solar eclipse :(
Fortunately they moved on and gave us about 20 seconds clear at the end.

This was taken back in May. There was a bit of stormy weather approaching. The two portions of cloud sandwiched a bit of blue sky in between them.

Been a long time since I've taken any cloud photos.
Took this in August of last year with my iPhone camera.
