I had trouble finding anything to photograph yesterday and ended up trying to photograph cloudscapes. I was just wondering what people feel make a great cloudscape, can only sunrises and sets make great pictures or can more everyday shots look good as well? The first was take from a bedrom window It wasn't a particularly great sky and isn't a sunset, more he sunset reflected in the east sky but I feel it has something about it. Its cropped to reove the window frame! The second is one taken in Tanzania this year. I like both but think the Tanzania one is best. Maybe you have a particlarly nice example you would like to share?

I love layers in a cloudscape, so I prefer your second.

These are from the same part of the sky, taken a few minutes apart:

I like both of yours, its actually very hard to say which I like most. But maybe the first. A moody stormy sky seems to be the key to a good cloudscape. Little white fluffy clouds are harder to turn into a good photo - unless someone out there can show different
