I have been looking forward to this week’s theme so much!!! I was simply over the moon about the theme which is clouds. I used to enjoy looking at clouds when I was growing up. It was a norm to just lie down in the school field or play ground and look up into the sky and watch the clouds float by. What a life it was! :) But after my first experience flying on a plane to Holland in 2002, I have been hooked on clouds!!

Almost everywhere I go, I take pictures of clouds. My favourite place to take cloud pictures is New Zealand. Known as the land of the long white clouds, it truly literally lives up to its name. SADLY, my home pc crashed and along with it, thousands of digitals memories were wiped out. :( I do have some of them burnt on a CD but they are not with me currently so here are some of the shots I took around NSW.  

This is Anzac Bridge and me being artistic, I like how the clouds look like in the background. I just wished that it was brighter that day…. 

A view of one of the many vineyards found in Hunter Valley, I thought this one looked particularly fairy-tale like. What do you think?

I know I should only share ONE picture a week but when you have so many to share, I find it hard to pick which one!! But this is one of my favourites… 

A shot above the Darling Harbour - just a note to mention that I did not meddle with the setting at all. This is an actual shot, no ‘makeup’ done. :)

Hope you enjoyed that - have a blessed weekend! 

Just added :

Ppssstt…..turns out that I have 2 more pix that I just HAD to share….

How cool is that???? I absolutely love how the sun shines through the clouds like that. Ted took these shots from his room while we were attending a pre-marriage course in Penang. Must be a ray of hope…. :P

  5. I too love it when sunbeams peek through the clouds. Good shots all…especially your first one. Thanks for stopping by Spatter.

  6. The clouds in the last photo are what I call “Jesus clouds.” So many cliche interpretations of Jesus descending from clouds like that.

    I like the vineyard.

    Thanks for coming by and leaving some love for my clouds at my place! :smile:

    I like the picture with the bridge. Actually I like all of them all,little cozy corner is like a Sunday drive. There is always such a peaceful feeling when rays from the sun shine like spotlights through the clouds you captured that well in the last two pictures.
    On my photo I was using color swap feature on camera, swapping blue for red. I use Google Picasa2 a lot, when I clicked ‘I’m feeling lucky’ it turned the clouds blue.
