Notice how the clouds have partly obscured sun, instilling the scene with ethereal beauty? This is just one example of how clouds can create superb and interesting effects. In many ways clouds are perfect for landscape photography as they can provide drama and definition for the sky. They can work well both in colour and monochrome photography.In this photo I decided to go with colour. The sky here is awash with sunlight and clouds and is that much richer for it. Darkness blends with light and in between are interesting murky colours.
This image was taken in Greece on a boat trip from the island of Aegina to the port of Piraeus.
