Clouds: From My Balcony

Photography is one of my favorite occupations. Clouds are one of my favorite subjects. They can be very dramatic. They move slowly. It doesn’t matter if they aren’t in sharp focus. Who ever heard of a hard edged cloud?

If you live in Puget Sound country, it’s a good idea to learn to love clouds. Between the influence on the ocean, the inland sea that is our Sound and our mountain ranges, we get lots of clouds.

I keep my camera hand and leap out of my chair when my peripheral vision notices a change in light.

The May full moon is known as the flower moon. I seldom get decent photos of the moon with my inexpensive little camera, but I keep trying.

Clouds frequently hide the Cascades, but there are times when the clouds highlight the mountains.

This may look like a watercolor, but it’s actually a photograph. One of my favorites.

I have some many cloud photos that I could do several series. I’ll do a few more in the future.
