I've always LOVED Clouds. From laying on my back and staring up at them as a child to staring at them in amazement as an adult. What about you? Are you a cloud lover? I knew that you were and that's why this is THE contest for you!
I want to see all types and all sizes: Cirrus, Cirrocumulus, Cirrostratus, Cumulus, Cumolonimbus etc.....
Let Me Get You Started!
Since I live at over 700 meters and my house looks over a valley I get the chance to photograph a LOT of clouds.
here's one from last week.
Every day there is a new show, a new work of art to admire on an every changing canvas!
Here Are The Rules:
- Show me a photo of some Classic Clouds!
- Post your photos in the comment section below
- The photo must be yours NOT one that you find on the internet.
- Maximum of 2 entries per person
- If you make a post promoting the contest I'll try and give it an upvote as well
- There will be at least 5 prizes of 1 Steem each
- The contest closes in 7 days
Now It's Your Turn. Let The Art Show Begin!
I can't wait to see the results of this contest. It's going to be a classic!

"I've looked at clouds from both sides now"
Now THAT's Cool!
Love that !
Hi! Here is my entry, I happen to love clouds and one of my images is posted here. I am promoting the contest too at https://steemit.com/contest/@mers/andalusian-clouds-my-entry-to-classic-cloud-contest-hosted-by-kus-knee . Thanks for hosting the contest.
Wow! Looks like alien spaceships :) Very interesting.
Hahaha... thanks, I get to see a lot of clouds like these, the condensation in the atmosphere begins from the Sierra Nevada (Granada) and they move towards the left side of this photo to the Mediterranean Sea.
Astonishing capture!
Thank you.
Let me share this classic clouds on my file... same location and the sky is on fire!!!
Amazing!

Here's one from Canada prairies:
Awe inspiring! Why would you want mountains? They just get in the way of the view!
No manipulation on this.. bet I could make it look even better with some Gimp love!
Lovely. Can you identify the cloud type?
It looks like Cirrocumulus clouds.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cirrocumulus_cloud
Cirrocumulus cloud
Cirrocumulus is one of the three main genus-types of high-altitude tropospheric clouds, the other two being cirrus and cirrostratus. They usually occur at an altitude of 5 kilometres (16,000 ft) to 12 kilometres (39,000 ft). Like lower altitude cumuliform and stratocumuliform clouds, cirrocumulus signifies convection. Unlike other high-altitude-tropospheric clouds like cirrus and cirrostratus, cirrocumulus includes a small amount of liquid water droplets, although these are in a supercooled state.
I took a shot today
Great entry!
..thank. Have a nice day!
And more clouds

The clouds are above and there is no excuse. Thanks!

A dear friend, @dswigle, introduced this contest. And I wanna give it a try!!! (Why not? 😂)
Entry 1: Dazzling cloud formation at sunset
Entry 2: Low-lying clouds at sunrise
Great, thanks!
The pleasure is mine! 😍
I don't know if that ring in the sky is a "classic cloud" (i think it's a Altocumulus lenticularis), but there' s more classic here too.
Cloud 1 - A Whale

The Classic Cloud Contest - Hope rises like a Phoenix from the Ashes of Shattered Dreams
2nd entry to the contest by @kus-knee. And just shot this evening at the point when I was almost ready to go back home due not so amazing skies on sunset. But that happens often, who is patient to wait a bit more, facing the Nature phenomena :)
The coast of Baltic Sea at Curonian Spit. And the battle of the Phoenix. Don't ask me with whom, some dark and evil opponent...
Long exposure to get more clear reflection on incoming long waves
Enjoy it!

Great! The second one looks a bit like Hiroshima!!
Thank you @kus-knee it certainly does look like that :))

Hello dear friend @ kus-knee This is my entry to accompany your contest
I wish you a wonderful day
Great!!!!!
Excellent theme for those of us who always look up to the sky with a camera onhand (60% of my photos!)
This is an exciting contest to enter and thread to watch as new entries are added. Narrowing down to two cloud images is going to be difficult -- we've got our work cut out for us! Upv & Rsd @kus-knee 🌤
I shall await your decision!
This should be a fun one. The tough thing is which 2 to choose to submit 😎
I hope that you can decide!
Yes, decided to go with 2 old posts.
Because you give me the second chance ...thank you!
Great!
Thank you!
