Cloudy - Thematic Photographic

Except for late evening skies I don't think I've ever set out to photograph clouds and the effects they create. However I find I have lots of photos where the clouds have made a contribution to the success of the resulting shot.

Closer to home this shot of Middlesbrough Transporter Bridge was taken from the RSPB's Saltholme nature reserve.

While on the subject of birds here's one I caught on the wing.

The clouds also make an effective background in the shot of a UK fire brigade practising with an extending ladder.

Following Paul's comment I have 'converted' one of the beach shot's to B&W
