...back in Comares we look towards the coast again as clouds drift across from Maroma

Super shot. I'm probably wrong but get the feeling from this that even though the sun was shining, it was a touch chilly?

@dobbino: I'm afraid you are Rob. I was up on the terrace in shorts. The clouds do indicate that feeling though don't they. I think the wind up there was pretty strong. Not so down where we were.

I thought I had a dead pixel for a moment but no - is it a bird...

@Broccali: A swift. I was trying to photograph them at the time I took this. It's a tad irritating here though. I suppose it should have got cloned out, but you can't have everything

The shapes of those clouds makes them very eye-catching and attractive as a picture element. The buildings and horizon make a good base for the clouds. Fine image.

Extraordinary shapes, was there any drastic change in the weather ?
BTW, have you noticed 'it' !

@observing: Not straight away. Don't worry this time it's a swift (see above) not the mothership.

A wonderful shot, love the shapes of the clouds and the shadows they left on the ground.

I like a view with a big sky like that . . it carries a sense of freedom to those of us walled in by brick and concrete all day.

beautiful, and oddly strange,
like computer-generated clouds.
