The clouds help illustrate the currents and eddies this high-flying bird was sailing through.

Specific Feedback Requested

I have not edited this image. I wonder how I could adjust this and similar ‘blue sky- white cloud- interesting patterns’ images technically or creatively.

Technical Details

Is this a composite: No

This is a second photo of the same area of clouds - again I wonder how I could adjust it to get more out of either of these photos. Any suggestions or reworks are welcome.

Ben, this is a lovely set of “fair weather” clouds. It tell a fine story without the bird, but the bird is a fun addition and adds to the story.

These are some fine fleecy clouds, Ben. I like the patterns a lot. I’m afraid I don’t know what to do about processing it for more punch.

Thank you @Dennis_Plank and @Mark_Seaver for having a look and offering your thoughts. I will study a little further to see about processing ‘mid-day blue sky white clouds images’.
