Fluffy

I shot this because I thought the texture of the cloud was really interesting. It was really a cumulus cloud that seemed touchable; like I could grab a piece of it.

The first shot, and I only managed two, didn't capture the cloud's texture at all. This shot did a great job, but is really off-center. I think it's because I couldn't shoot "head-on". And when I got to the middle of the crosswalk (where I thought I could get one more shot, easily, before going on my way and not getting creamed), I realized that the cloud was blocked by buildings.

So, the photo is a success in terms of figuring out what I needed to do to get that texture, but I think it might not be a success overall.
