I really like this one as well. Can you say something about when and where it was taken? Also, what about the context of the photo, both externally (what was going on around you) and internally (your internal, not the cloud's)?

The clouds in this picture floated by my house last Wednesday evening, the day the entry was posted. It had been a long, hot day at the farm, so as usual I sat on my porch when I got home, letting the dog do his business, opening my mail, and allowing the evening breeze (if any) cool me off a bit. I watched the clouds roll about in the sky above my neighbor's house for a few minutes before fetching my camera.

They changed shape every few seconds, as some clouds caught the setting sun and others receded into the shadows.

I'm not sure that the photo says anything significant about my internal musings at the time, except that maybe I love spending the day out in the country with the beauty of the birds and the bugs, then coming home to the city with its buses and fumes, where the sight of fluffer-nutter clouds might seem more beautiful for the contrast of their surroundings.

I guess that's something.
