Nobody Ever Looks Up

Description

Well, what can I say? I love clouds. I love the sky, in general... so I end up taking a lot of pictures of it. I can actually trace my love of the sky back to a quote from The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles:

"Have you noticed how nobody ever looks up? Nobody ever looks up at chimneys, or trees against the sky, or the tops of buildings. Everybody just looks down at the pavement or their shoes. The whole world could pass them by and most people wouldn’t notice."

I read that a few years ago when I was rereading the book, and vowed to myself that I would look up more often. It may seem strange... but it's helped me discover how much beauty can pass over our heads without ever being appreciated.
Which in real life, I guess, just translates into my taking a whole bunch of pictures of clouds. ^_^"
