John Nack on Adobe: Little Fluffy Clouds

The views expressed in this blog are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of Adobe Systems Incorporated.

Paul Octavious has posted some of the most interesting photos I've seen in a while. I love the way his silhouettes play with our sense of scale. [Via]
From Paul's gallery I found my way to other cool cloud shots on Flickr.
Philip Straub, head of concept art at Electronic Arts, creates some clouds that are anything but little n' fluffy. [Via] He talks about his history, work in Photoshop & Painter, and more in this interview.
In case you missed an earlier link posted in the comments, check out these rather amazing lenticular clouds. [Via BW Jones]

[Amazing! And not unlike a dream I had last night, which is a whole other matter. Thanks for the link. --J.]
