The sky is the garden of the soul and the playground of the winds.
So, let me show you what the first sight of this picture turns into.
I want to show you how picturesque the winds can change the appearances of clouds in the sky. Especially at sunset, as no cloud can remain constant in the sky when two winds from different directions meet each other. In this case, the winds from the mountains in the east met with the opposing winds from the sea in the west. Now when it is near sunset and there are some clouds involved, then you can prepare for a great show. I have seen this often, and I can never get tired of it, as it is spellbinding.
So, at first, we take a look towards the south where things looked a bit calmer and watch what happened to the leading yellowish cloud at the right.
The opposing wind simply blossomed the cloud into a lovely bloom.
Right, now for the change of the cloud in the first picture.
The driving wind from the mountains in the east, and the opposing wind from the ocean in the west, simply tipped the cloud upright.
But the opposing western wind from the sea was winning, as it started to level the cloud.
It was slowly getting darker, but I liked the way that the bottom cloud crowned the tree.
And finally, the wind from the west won the fight, as the cloud was almost level again.
I love the "V" formations that the birds fly in, and they have taught our modern jet fighter planes how to fly in formation.
Amazing the things that we as mankind has learned and applied the things that nature teaches. So many lessons since times began, and there are many examples of what I am saying. But nowadays we feel that we don't need nature anymore, as developments are taking place all over the show in wetlands, and wetlands form an integral part in nature, as they filter the water that flows into the rivers. Plastic is also nature's enemy number 1.
Of course, populations are growing and old infrastructure that has not kept up with the times, and overflows sewerage and all kinds of rubbish into the sea. Thankfully we have not learned how to build cities in the sky yet, but we try our best to pollute the sky with our toxic gases and smoke.
Should we be proud? Definitely not, as without nature mankind will end.
I hope you have enjoyed the story and the pictures.
