cloud day #283 12th February 2015


The edge of the roof intruded on this shot. Some sub tropical afternoon rain...no, not even rain, a sprinkle...

cloud day #282 11th February 2015


I like those white fluffy clouds; they are the kind you can make animals and other shapes out of when you lie down on the grass and gaze upwards...

cloud day #281 10th February 2015


Slightly later in the morning than yesterday's shot, but as lovely with blue and clouds

cloud day #280 9th February 2015


Lovely morning shot

cloud day #279 8th February 2015


The cloud from yesterday has broken up a little, to allow swathes of blue, yay!

cloud day #278 7th February 2015



Lots of cloud cover today, 'overcast' is the description - I'm not sure how this term came into being in this context and couldn't seem to find anything on the net to shed any light either

cloud day #277 6th February 2015


A nice enough day, a little windy, but hot...clouds scuttling along in the blue.

cloud day #275 4th February 2015



Rain, rain and more rain today...good for the parched land. The shape of the darker cloud is reminiscent of a less-threatening tornado...

cloud day #274 3rd February 2015


Wonderful sunset. We don't many of these, being on the eastern side of a ridge, but when it does happen it's magic. Note the moon, on the ascend, looking tiny through the lens.

cloud day #273 2nd February 2015


An early evening shot, after a lovely warm day...

cloud day #272 1st February 2015


The first day of February has brought showery weather, courtesy of the stratocumulus cloud formation. The land needed those last two days of rain, although the humidity is unwelcome - everything is damp...

cloud day #271 31st January 2015


Heavier skies today, with some light rain, terribly humid, and glowering...a touch of the tropics

cloud day #270 30th January 2015


It's been (sorta kinda) threatening to rain today, but it has come to nothing except the dry hot wind again...lots of cloud activity though which is nice

cloud day #269 29th January 2015



Wisps and more solid cloud forms. Again, hot, sticky, windy...

cloud day #268 28th January 2015


Taken early-ish in the morning whilst the sun is still on the ascend. Hot, humid, windy, sticky already...

cloud day #267 27th January 2015


Lovely swirls of colour, like whipped mousse (sort of). A wonderful depth of blue underneath the white.

cloud day# 265 25th January 2015


There are exactly one hundred days left to go in my cloud project, where I pledged to post an image of the sky every day for a year...and to mark the occasion - a cloudless sky!

cloud day #264 24th January 2015


The optical illusion of the cloud sitting above the hills renders everything that little bit more dramatic...
