Cloud Opera over the Lake - a photo on Flickriver

            Was having a cleanup of old photos today when I stumbled across this one. I remember thinking at the time there wasn't enough foreground interest, so it was a bit bland. It is a merge of three bracketed exposures. So it was never looked at again.

These days I have a new appreciation for clouds. I love them, in all their forms. I'll be out with people and they will say "what a beautiful day, hey". My usual response is "it's okay but, there aren't any clouds. 
Anyway, the clouds performing their "opera" here caught my interest tonight. There is the drama of the rain, the glory of the sun peaking , the roiling of the mid levels, the whispering of the outliers. That's how I remember it anyway.

Any other cloud lovers out there?

Have a great cloudy day everyone :)
