Captured 9/10/15 @ 9:30 am, from somewhere within the neighborhood.
Original on top, as per usual.
What with my favorite day of the year, Halloween, just a little over a month away, I've decided to hone up on my spooky skills. Hence, I'll be posting all kinds of cool stuff from that genre through October.
And, tell us what you see suggestive, if anything, in the bottom photo.
Cheerybye.

WOW! It would be hard to chose between these, but the last is awesome and yes... could be a harbour with ships :-)

(I'm still waiting for you to say "The Original is on the bottom"---just to shake people up...) Well, the original is a sweeping shot, almost entirely clouds; and the dark hues make it seem menacing---perfect to kick off your Halloween fest. You also give a thin swath of city on the bottom, and its skewed angles make it even more spooky. Terrific shot. Terrific cloud capture.
The 2d brings out deep contrasts, and makes the sky a combo of cream and ink (the way ink billows out in water). Very sensual---also, like storm clouds seen from above; or an aerial view of earth from a high plane. Fine linear forms 'down there'...
The 3d is more of an American Southwest vision, with the colors we associate with that part of the country. Or a sepia shot from the Depression. You got a lot of character from that original.
The 4th strikes me as a graphic interpretation; or what this would look like if one's had too many Tequilas. (Like they should get in bed immediately.) You've created the feeling of bales of fleece, and created topographical bas-relief. More creative work.
And the last: Your mirror-imaging definitely created a battle ship! Or a ceremonial mound with antennae. Or a huge red dessert with two big spears stuck in it. (I wouldn't eat that if I were you.) It's delightfully strange, brought out by your pink and crimson coloring---all against that luminous green-blue. You picked the right image to end with: It takes us into the spookiest of all the variations. Fine and creative work, Harry, I love them all. And you have to know: Your original is a first rate cloud shot. It has real sweep. A wonderful collection.
