It rained today. That means heavy cloud cover -- and that, of course, means Cloud Creatures were out in force. I guess the conditions that promote the formation of clouds, also attracts them. Either that, or there is something in clouds they want. Anyway, I was rewarded with a few really interesting images of CCs in action. Take a gander at this one -- it's almost apocalyptically dramatic, yet beautiful:
And this very unusual one -- I'm not certain, but I think I caught a pair of CCs engaged in the act of mating:
Maybe I should have prefaced that one with an "Adults Only" warning^^. And while shooting this next, "*Jawa with a gun"-looking individual...
*The dwarfish, junk-dealing desert inhabitants of planet Tatooine from the original Stars Wars movie
...I noticed a tiny speck floating there among the clouds, which turned out to be an extremely gonzo object -- a novelty balloon, perhaps (of the color of a scab?)... Anyhow, below are the three best of the several shots I took of the thing before it was lost to sight. Each full image is followed by a detail.
And finally, I noticed this spooky-looking face, seemingly staring at me--
I hope it was just curious.
