Helpful Posts: Patrick, thank you for advising and for sharing that amazing video. I've only watched the first minute but I will watch the rest of it later today. It is inspiring, and yes that is likely true but I will try.
David... Thank you. I headed out early this morning and tried some more landscapes, and they include lots of clouds but I also tried to include other scenery that was of interest. No doubt I will post them in a week or so.
