Wow. I like your clouds. Richard. I've never seen those here. I was wondering if you were planning to do anything special for your 1000th photo that is coming up soon...
@klu Probably not. Everytime I plan something specific it doesn't seem to work very well. I'm happiest just keeping an eye out for interesting things that I like!
"Most of the time, you see cirrus clouds very high up in the sky, looking thin and wispy, like someone pulled a bigger cloud apart into little bits of cloud. Cirrus (SIR-russ) clouds look thin because they are made of ice crystals, not water drops. They form where it is high enough to be cold and freeze the water drops into ice.
Sometimes you might think you see cirrus clouds when it's really only the trail of an airplane, half blown away and spreading across the sky. But either way, if the sky is blue with only these thin cirrus clouds high up in it, you can be pretty sure it's going to be a nice day."
