Hole Clouds Photography

Ok, so I wake up in the morning and take my kids to school.  As I am leaving I look up in the sky and notice these odd looking circles in the sky.  All perfectly formed with a little whisp of clouds right in the middle.  I counted 3 of them.  Driving a little down the road for a better look (and chance to take a picture) I found a great shot.  I took a few and then wondered what they were.  I headed south and had to stop on the side of a bridge to get a few more shots.  Then I went and stopped at a pull-off just north of the Skyway Bridge.  By now I could count 5 of these odd looking “holes”.  After getting to the office I looked them up on the internet and found that they are known as “hole clouds”.  A rare thing to see, let alone seeing 4 o4 5 of them in a row.  My pictures turned out great and I was amazed.  That’s what happens when you combine a great photographer with the master of design.  Mother nature creates things that you just can’t make in Photoshop.
