Bosque Clouds

[Cheryl Slechta]

Another Bosque image. In an ideal world, the sandhills would be flying into the frame but they're not:S3:

[Kerry Perkins]

Love those Bosque skies, either with or without birds! This image does a great job of painting a picture of the look and feel that surrounds one when visiting there. The fact that the cranes are flying away from the frame doesn't bother me; it helps to set the tone of the image.

[Judy Howle]

Beautiful sky capture! I love the vibrant colors and bird silhouettes.

[Diane Miller]

Incredible sky!! I like that the cranes have cleared the busier sky area and are highlighted against the smoother area. I have the feeling it's sunset and they are heading home -- that fits with going out of the frame. (How's that for rationalization?)

[Paul Lagasi]

Very beautiful sky, brings back memories of my days at Bosque. I wonder why the skies there are usually this color? Fits the theme perfectly. What birds? :tinysmile_shy_t:

[Jackie Schuknecht]

Great colour and I like the birds heading out of the frame Cheryl:bg3:!

[Cheryl Slechta]

Hi, Diane, thanks! And the "going home" was my rationalization also:S3:

Stunning sky captured, Cheryl. The "going home" theme is well used by painters much more more than photographers. Brilliant colors and textures in the clouds. Very nice stuff:S3:

[Grady Weed]

Brilliant work Cheryl.

[Cheryl Slechta]

Thanks everyone for your comments. I can hardly wait to go back to Bosque this year.:S3:

While I also prefer birds flying towards me, The mood of this sunset scene works better with them flying off (into the sunset after all....). Beautful clouds and color glow.
