Blue(ish) Skies

The sky is a hard image to convey with a photograph. Ansel Adams said that anyone could convey what they saw with a photograph. The challenge is to convey what one felt in that moment with a photograph. I didn't use quotations because it's a rough paraphrase, and Adams wasn't the first to verbalize the idea. This could lead to a long discussion on the duality of existence, but suffice to say that the blue sky would be underappreciated without a few clouds to remind us of the coming, or the past, rains.
