[Love The Clouds] Changing Plans
Hello all friend, Hope all you you are good. I Am writing this post as a part of Love the Clouds Contest # 165 which is a initiation by the @tobetada
For more details about contest check the link.
Today in the afternoon after leaving work I was thinking about taking some pictures of the clouds to participate in the contest. That was the plan and as soon as I got home without changing my work clothes I climbed up to the roof with the desire to get good pictures.
There was so much sun that the glare blinded me and I couldn't take many pictures. I only took a picture of some clouds that were passing by and my neighbor's pigeons. I retouched both photos by adjusting the contrast, brightness and temperature of the image. This is how the two photos turned out.
As there was so much sun and very few opportunities for good photos I changed my plans and decided to go downstairs to change and go play basketball.
I arrived and there were a lot of people and while I was waiting I was looking at the back of the hoop where there was a good shot for a photo. I took out my phone and took several pictures. In the end I got the one I'm sharing below. I only edited the photo a little bit giving it some small adjustments to the brightness, contrast and color. And this was the result.
And that's all folks. I hope you like the photos and the edits. See you in a next post.

Photography of clouds is a type of photography that is becoming increasingly popular. Whether you are seeking captivating landscapes, unique models or unique landscapes, clouds offer a visually unique addition to any photograph. However, there are several important considerations to plan ahead when photographing clouds, both in terms of artistry and technicality.
Technical considerations start with the sky. As it is the main subject of the photo, so it is important to time the shoot so you have a sky in the best condition of light. The clouds must be visible, but not too overpowering, providing interesting shapes for photographers. When considering the equipment, it is important to take the lenses with the widest angle and high quality. This equipment will allow the photographer to capture remarkable details of the clouds, offering maximum resolution.
In terms of artistry, proper composition is essential to achieve stunning photographs. Focusing on the horizon or some interesting foreground item, such as a tree or a mountain during sunset, can help to give added depth and perspective to the composition. Keep in mind the balance between the negative and positive areas, as well as the dynamic of the color of both elements. Pay attention to the light and shadows, the contrast and saturation. Moreover, the shapes of the clouds contribute greatly to the image, so capturing their movement in the sky clearly is essential.
Finally, post-processing is key. Make sure the exposure and white point are right, and depending on the desired result, a little bit of contrast and vignetting can also be added. If a dreamy atmosphere is sought, then adding some softness to the photo is a great option.
By following the mentioned technical and artistic tips, cloud photography will become much easier, and the results may be outstanding. With the proper practice and dedication, any photographer can bring to life captivating photographs of moving clouds from a different perspective.
