So many things I can see in these pictures Alexander that if I had them hanging them on my wall I would stare at them all day and do even less writing that I’m doing at the moment! 😁

From dragons, to crinkled wise faces and then to a leaping dog, they’re endlessly fascinating

I’ve never actually asked, would you consider offering prints of these?

Thanks, Dan! Glad you like the clouds. As for prints, funny you should ask! I have been exploring various services to see which one would be suitable to provide high quality prints on demand. I also have some printed already which I could offer for sale (A4, 40x30, 75x50). I'll have to do an inventory. If there is any print in particulat that interests you, send me a DM.

Too many to pick a favourite. They're all amazing.

Crepuscular is one of my favourite words.

Cloud Atlas is one of my favourite books.

Clouds are great.

Wonderful pics and words, Alexander.

They're all favourites! ;) Thanks, Nathan. I think I will need to find a way to use crepuscular in one of my next stories... Cloud Atlas! I have only ever seen the movie. Another one to add to the list.

1. "Like clockwork, the orange sunbeams break through the clouds (shot on Bal Cony island)." - I see what you did there!

2. Strange Magic but no Mr. Blue Sky? Hello!!!

3. These are truly sublime heavenly clouds and god rays!

I knew you would! Seeing as Dr Strangelove is my all-time favourite movie, I simply had to, and as far as Blue Sky is concerned… ELO? (French for Hello) Of course, one must listen to more than one song!

Thanks a lot, Nadia. So happy you like the scapes.

We are always voting even by not voting. So better vote, vote for ELO! Btw I love how Jeff announces the song in this live performance here: https://youtu.be/28_unHqjVp0?si=nPYsMr0Qe1yePskK :)

Some of these magnificent clouds look like they could be eaten with a spoon Alexander. I especially loved the color version of the day the earth stood still. Those five flat islands in silhouette below the burst of fire look like migrating whales.

The Tiger Island sunrise shot is certainly one of my favourites, too. It was my desktop wallpaper for some time. Glad you like the scapes and yes to the whales!
