Thanks for the comments. I didn't wait at all for the cloud, just backed the car about 10 feet and shot out the window. Van

The single large cloud above the tree makes this an interesting shot. I'd probably crop it down further for future use, but I really like the mood/feel of this photo.

I like the starkness of it. But it seems OOF.

Nice capture with the cloud hanging over the tree.

Interesting shapes in that silhouette and I like the unusual composition, centred one way but not the other. That cloud definitely makes it.

I like the tuft of cotton above the wood. Nice sky and interesting tree.

How long did you have to wait for a cloud to park itself right above that tree? Might have liked this better with the whole composition shifted to the side instead of centered, but nice timing.

6 - Really like the tree capture, especially with that cloud above, but the empty space reduced at the top (in camera, who knows) would have made a much stronger image, in my opinion.

...And the cloud above looks like the cottonball that came off the tree when it sneezed or "blew its top!" :}
