Check out this cloud! I was working through the weekend (on my real job, which sometimes get busy) and when it was time to take a break, of course I went on a bit of wander to see what I could see.

There was a big line of clouds building up east of town; I found a nice vantage point at the soccer fields, where I sat on a broken aluminum bleacher and watched the clouds build. And the thing is that just sitting and watching a scene unfold is new for me – usually I am more of the shoot-it-and-move-along sort of photographer. This slower approach doesn’t (yet) feel natural, but I’ll keep trying and see how it works out. (See, Brett Erickson: it looks like I am still learning from that class all the way back in July!)
