20080430 - Out....

For the 'whitish' April theme!

...with a whimper.

Seemed like a good idea at the time, a nice bit of sunlit whitish cloud against the leaden sky. But the background wasn't quite leaden enough really.
Maybe I should've just taken another pic instead of trying to make something from this one...

It's over - no more whitishness - it's been a hard month! Fun though :)

Ooh, awesome! I really like this one, the white clouds and the showers behind them...

Love the composition, and the clouds are perfect. You should try bracketing in those situation, sometimes things hhappen then.

Very good contrast and gray scale. Only miss the angle sitting on it :-)

They look like nice unthreatening fluffy clouds but I bet there's rain lurking there too.

Dramatic shot.

looks like a billow of smoke from a chimney
or a chimley as they call them in my neck of the woods..
Faye White30-Apr-2008 18:49
