Islands on the Clouds
Here I am, flying south to Wellington last Friday afternoon. I am looking west, and you can see the sun getting lower in the sky.

The little ‘islands’ are really larger patterned clouds that seem to be peaking out through the mass of the heavy covering of clouds over the sea, the Tasman Sea.

I don't think you can actually see any water. It wasn't easy to see what I was shooting at the time...

I am home for only 24 hours and tomorrow I am off to Rotorua for another holiday with some of the family.

This is awesome!! I love the tones and the mood. Very 'heavenly' :) TFS

Ha, ha, what a busy girl, but still time to get your priorities right!

The colours are lovely and, with your title, really conjour up the idea of a far-away world: mystical, magical!

Have a great holiday,
Bev :-)

It looks like flying over the Southpole.!

Mmmm...wonderful mood and atmosphere! I especially like the light quality and "heavenly" feel in this image. Very appealing, and well done:)

Hello Janice ,

Missed this cutie. It looks like a painting. Difficult to scale it at first . But very interesting to explore it with our eyes. Love the soft tones , colors and various textures.

I sincerely hope I will have a busy retirement as much as you , Annie (beger), Vassilis and many more TL members.

Have fun anywhere and everywhere you go.
Robert
