White Cloud Mountain

Something a little less dramatic than yesterday's sunrise photo for today's post. Instead of blazing golden fire, we have a towering heap of white cotton wool floating in a bright blue sky. Pictures of clouds may not appeal to everyone, but I find the delicate, wispy, ever-changing edges of their structure both fascinating and beautiful.

As if in contrast to the size of this natural visual extravaganza, the contrail (and associated aircraft) at the top of the image seem almost puny by comparison, dwarfed by the billowing vapour of the clouds.
