WILD WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – CLOUDS
This week we’re challenging you to point your lenses toward the clouds, because this week’s theme is clouds! Puffy and white or menacing and grey – clouds can take on many shapes, clinging to the ground as fog or towering miles into the sky. When billions of tiny molecules of water or ice crystal come together, they form a cloud. Most of the time we see them as white, since they reflect the light of the sun. When the cloud gets thick enough or high enough, it can appear grey, blocking most of the sun’s light from getting through.
This week, head outside and see if you can find some interesting clouds to take pictures of! The shots don’t have to be only of the clouds, but they should be one of the key elements in your scene!

wow, fabulous clouds! love that sunrise at the top … and those huge cumulus over victoria falls 🙂
Thank you! Our sun rises here were so bright and sunny that I thought it would never give us some red shine in it.This was because we had a drought here that was very bad! Suddenly one morning when I opened my curtains – there it was so beautiful I took quite a few photos of it.
is the drought over yet scrapydo? horrible for NZ to be lacking rain …
We had some good rains since the beginning of the week and the water restrictions are not that strict here anymore. Sad to say the parts that need rain the most are still dry.Problem is the vegetation won’t grow that well anymore because it is to cold and winter is with us already.
hope for a better summer next time …
Thank you me too.
These cloudy photos are fantastic, especially the first one.
Yes I kept on taking photos of the clouds passing by the red of the up coming sun.
Pragtig…
Dankie 🙂
Beautiful! And now I long for summer again…
Thanks.Winter is upon us now!
Really lovely, Scrapy. 🙂
Thank you. 🙂
I think the pacific is topsy turvy. Australia is getting all the rain atm, instead of NZ! Love the sunset over the clouds and especially the one photo with the rocky coast.
I agree, whole weather is upside down. Hope it gets better soon. Very spooky the misty one.
Beautiful set of cloud pics, scrapydo. Love the Vic Falls one. 🙂
Thanks! The Vic Falls is special to me. I was the only one who really got up early to take photo from the roof of the hotel. There was a lonely elephant grazing between the trees also
