Some clouds just have a mind of their own.

Thanks for sharing these, JP!

Love those ones especially at sunrise or sunset... they turn all shades of pink. :)

These are some cool photos, clouds can be beautiful, there are even books filled solely with cloud photos, that says something about how cool looking clouds can be.

Great, other-worldly, shots! Not a cloud in the sky here.

Dragons are more fun to imagine! I love the houses in the fourth picture! Is it an older part of town?

Writer said...

neatfit, and our fascination with them. :)

Writer said...

Mitch, several days after taking these photos, there are nothing BUT clouds in the sky. :)

Writer said...

Yes, tamayn. But they've been refurbished and turned into condos.

Some Lexington fun facts, on the right hand side of that picture is a parking lot...where old buildings used to stand, before Lexington got all interested in preserving its historic buildings.

The houses on the left used to be pink and were all contected and were once upon a time called the Kimball House Inn. Behind the houses, in the inn's backyard used to be a monkey cage.

And a little further down the street is an even older home, built by a slave who'd bought his freedom and built a home for his family.

Bizarre? Thanks, I now have that song stuck in my head: "How bizarre."
