Cloud Formations in the Summer Sky.
Does this cloud look like a Baby Chick Begging for Food to you? (Purchase)
Summer is not always a time for a high level of photography activity for me. These past two summers the parks and public areas have been crowded as people limited travel due to Covid. Summer of 2021 was exceptionally hot and started with a record breaking heat dome which many will not forget anytime soon. So I didn’t get out and photograph all that this summer, but I did do some in the backyard. In the evening after working in the garden I occasionally noticed some flowers that needed some camera attention, and during one of those evenings I happened to look up and see a lot of great cloud shapes and formations in the evening sky.

There isn’t a lot one can say about these sorts of photographs, but I included this first one at the top because it is my favourite. The main shape here reminds me of a baby chick in a nest with its wings stretched out and its mouth wide open hoping for dinner from Mom or Dad. Hopefully I’m not the only one that can see this! The others I photographed that evening were either shapes or striations in the sky that I found interesting.

I do see birds of some type in the first one, more of a wing spread than chick feeding for me. Summer is pretty low on my product scale also.
Always interesting how different people see/interpret different things in photos like this. For me, the head and open/begging mouth is the prominent part and the wings are a bit less defined. Either way, I’m more used to overcast than interesting in terms of clouds!
The last image has the vague look of Arabic writing. I do love photographing clouds and now in Maine I have some summer fun with them too.
