Hello,

In the wake of unannounced and sudden rains in and around my city, the clouds had pretty interesting images to show... as they always have!!

I was again at the site of my new house in the NCR (Network Capital Region) of Delhi - Gurgaon, Haryana where I saw this from the terrace.

Though I have taken it from my mobile phone, I was able to make it look like this after some PP.

I'm posting it this way, keeping in mind the Scav. Hunt running as well (One of the themes is the letter J).

I hope you like it. Please do let me know.

Have a nice week ahead,
Varun

Awesome capture - great colours and sharpness. I like the dramatic tones and the moody atmosphere of the image. Nicely seen.

Great spotting. I would have never thought to look up for this item of the hunt.
Wonderful composition and brilliant contrasts.

Only word I have for this is:
WOW!!!!!!!!!
So nice to see what clouds can do!

J for Jolly Good image Varun :)

Well spotted and clean shot,
Cheers :D

Hi Varun,
I'd like to say that I love your "J".
What a spectacle in the sky - these clouds are marvelous, thanks and greetings

HI Varun!
I think this is the most beautiful leter J I have ever seen!Great work!

That's awesome! It really looks like a poofy stylized cursive "J". Lucky for you you were going out and looking at clouds, I love nature :) The backlighting of the sun along with those clouds makes the shot so dramatic and powerful. The contrasts are wonderful and the tonalities are very rich. This seems to be a "J" from God(dess). Excellent the way the rays of light show up against the darkness in the left half, and the vertical framing and cropping echoes the shape of the "J" while giving it balance. Excellent metering and exposure too. Well-done! TFS!

hello varun,
lucky you to see this one! You've done a good job with your camera phone and PP.

Precioso resplandor tras esas nubes, me gusta sobre todo el detalle del recorte de las nubes con el brillo blanco. Es esplendoroso¡¡¡

Un saludo, Sara.

Interesting picture, Varun. Jehovah is the anglicized version of the divine name in the Bible so this is kind of interesting. TFS.

I see it well! That find! Not evident. But we can see one sometime... The problem... We don't alway's have the head in the sky :)
Origiinally find!
