I'll try again - the above one has the wrong link!
I really LOVE your Hawaiian cloud photos - particularly the Pali Lookout one! They are fabulous!

Those are all wonderful shots. The last one is so dramatic and the second one looks like an oil painting to me.

Hi Girasoli, you have a great collection. They are all so beautiful. I love sunsets, so when I saw that last one--I was like Wow! Great selections for this week's theme photo.
Have a great weekend!

Wow, I understand why you couldn't narrow it down to one! All of those are such awesome shots. What a beautiful place Hawaii is! Have a good weekend, Annie

Awesome cloud photos! Love the last one. Photos like that one make me think of 'The Creation'.

Beautiful! Especially the one which you can see the clouds simply floating on top of the mountain.
The orange sun set is gorgeous as well :)

Good shots all, but I especially like seeing clouds in the reflection of water. Well done!

Leslie, didn't mean to delete your other comment. Even though I like all the white fluffy clouds, I think my favorite is also the Pali Lookout photo.
Carver, the second one does look sort of like an oil painting. I was playing around that day and took a lot of different photos. It was an assignment for a photo class I was taking.
Kathy, thanks. The last one is pretty dramatic. I was watching this sunset with my friends from Italy (Katia & Guido) on our last night together so it also has special memories.
Annie, Hawaii is definitely a beautiful place. I sometimes forget that once I get into the daily grind. I am terrible with narrowing down photos.
Thanks Nita!
María, I thought the same thing about the last one when watching the sun set that day.
Thanks Sandra, I have often thought cloud photos would make a cool book.
Napaboaniya, I was surprised that one came out since I was on a bumpy bus. The sight of the clouds floating on the mountains is even more dramatic in person.
Thanks June, I always find it fun taking shots with water as a reflector.

All beautiful shots, but the middle one (reflection) is my favorite. Such vibrant color. Nice work. ThanX for stopping by.

Hi diXymiss, thanks for stopping by! I had fun taking that photo along with a few more I might post one day. Thanks for your comment.

Your second, reflective shot, is absolutely gorgeous! You know, I think I'll go post one now too from Vermont (actually it will be redundant but what the heck).
