When I was probably 7 or 8 years old, our teacher asked the whole class to write a little story about something that we considered special. I wrote about clouds. For as long as I can remember I was mesmerized by them in that magical, daydream-y way. As a kid, I spent countless hours trying to imagine how would it feel to walk on them or skip about and how much they remind me of cotton candy. Some things will never change as today in the midst of an afternoon busyness I suddenly stopped and started to admire the pink sky above. And you know what, I still think that one of the best things in life is lying on the grass and playing guessing game with clouds.
Aren’t those
beautiful? They have such a calming effect, don’t they? What were you
fascinated with when you were 7 or 8 years old? Do tell:) xo
P.S: And a few more jaw dropping sky images!
P.P.S: Plus, the stunning Aurora Borealis.

I love clouds, too!!! I STARE at them like the stars, sleeping babies, and Shawn's eyes.
When I was 7 I was admittedly obsessed with dinosaurs... they're not the same as clouds since they're not around still but they mesmerized me all the same. I used to draw so many; I just recently realized I'm not over them :o)
Oh wow, I was staring at that second image for ages! I love when the clouds turn a tinge of pink! Great post :)
these are gorgeous, some are sweet and beautiful, and some are terrifying.
This is AMAZING! I've always loved anything to do with space. Stars, planets, galaxies, you name it!
Okay, those cloud photos are amazing. Amazing. The 1st, 2nd and last one want to be framed and hang in my house - they told me :)
I always see dogs in the clouds, sometimes faces but mostly just dogs.
I was fascinated with my little 110 camera when I was little. I would walk around the neighborhood and pose people and take photos of trash cans etc. then I would do chores to get enough money to get the film developed. That was back in the 1970s :)
These images are so beautiful...always love clouds and taking pictures of them! :)
HiLLjO, aww your comment rocks!!! Btw: I know a little girl who it totally obsessed with dinosaurs right now. She is about 6 years old. She knows all the different kinds and all their names including little details about them. She is awesome:)
Carina, pink clouds are so romantic, don't you think?
Jeanette:))) I usually see food items in clouds. Btw: I adore that you loved taking photos with your beloved camera. How sweet!
Fabulous photos! Especially love that first one.
those photos are so gorgeous!! I still love finding animal shapes in clouds when I'm driving down the road (although I should probably be paying more attention to the cars in front of me!)
That last image is stunning!
Tsuki, :)
Hannah, the first one is my favourite as well:)
Rainbows - at that age, everything had to be rainbows... clothes and room decor. However, as an adult, I'm completely fascinated with clouds.
Wendy, how lovely...Rainbows are awesome:)
These are amazing.
I played with cars in the dirt with my brothers.
Cloud watching is one of the most calming, beautiful things to me.. love these images, Diana.
