Fabulous, John. Love the sense of motion. Oh dear, reminds me of how quickly the years went by since our children were 9. Enjoy every moment, they grow up fast. However, from your notes, I know you treasure the time with your family.

John...what an amazing capture! You know I just love the clouds shots! Something quite spectacular about something that weighs so much floating so effortlessly!

Great cloudscape, John! I like the lower clouds in front of the background of the high clouds.
Dave.

Nice rare shot!

Just too bad those "ughhh" street lamps are there. But it's an easy fix in photoshop!

Thanks for showing us the unique cloud formations

Congratulations for Mike's birthday. I hope he liked his cake as much as I like this phot of your, John. By not cropping out the ground and via the white lines the clouds leave behind the, the effect of the clouds racing is very visually tangible.
Thank you for your very kind comments on my "Our window", my "Grinch" and my 33a' Frischmann Street"
Some further information: Etzel was the acronym of "National Military Organization" and not as stated. Its commander, Begin, was looked for by the British but never caught. Very much later he became our first non-left-wing Prime Minister and was the first to reach a peace agreement with an Arab country, Egypt. The commander of "Lehi", Yair Stern was discovered by the British in his hiding place and shot dead.
Quite a few members of "Etzel" and "Lehi" were executed by the British. These executions diminished considerably after "Etzel" kidnapped two British sergeants and hanged them. When the state of Israel was established, one of its first acts was to abolish capital punishment and except Eichmann, who was accused of crimes against humanity, nobody was executed here.
Best regards,
Rafi

"The heavens declare the glory of God..." That's what came to mind when I saw this image. Crop off the bottom and you have a great cover for a book of devotions...or a CD cover!

Ian McIntosh   {K:38909} 6/26/2005
This is verynice. Camera handles grain well. Just read your about again. 5 kids- choice!! I think I learn to get things right staying away from photoshop and the towers that are there describe the ground beneath your sky nicely, even with perspective depth though we can't see it. I wonder if they would have more to say if they were to the right more, but then it's not about the light it's about the the clouds.


John Loreaux   {K:85872} 6/26/2005
Thats a good point lan! That light post would have been a whole lot better to the right ! I wanted to include it to give the scene a sense of grandure. Some will agree, some not but oh well thats how it happened! thanks for the generous comment my friend!Hope All is well with You mate! take care.......................John
A Slarti eh!
