C ~ Cloud Watching

     As a child, lazy summer afternoons were perfect for lying in the grass and watching the clouds. My brothers and I enjoyed seeing all the different things you could spot in them. 
    



    I still enjoy trying to see things in the clouds. This one appears to me to be a hand reaching for something.

    This next one provided me with a number of different pictures. A taco, the spout and part of a teapot, a man's face with his mouth open, a possible elephant trunk. 

    Apparently I am easily entertained.

  1. I did the same thing as a child and have such fond memories of those cloud encounters.

  2. Cloud watching ... yes I did that as a child. Sometimes I still watch the clouds, but I do not see many with pictures in them any more - I wonder if it's the clouds or me, because even before reading, I saw pictures in your clouds. No book containing cloud-watching surfaced in my mind.

  4. There's a fun word for finding shapes in clouds: https://experiencewriting.com/2021/08/16/any-excuse-for-nephelococcygia/

  5. I love cloud watching. I used to do it all the time and also take photos whenever I see an interesting pattern there. In the second photo, I think I see goofy on the right or perhaps goofy's dog.

    Have a lovely day.

  6. Oh I haven't watched clouds for a very long time. I might get the grands to do that soon. If the rain and cold ever leave us.

  7. Apparently the human brain instinctively looks for recognizable patterns.
