Beautiful photo Shaw. Such a spacious highway... and that special cloud! I'm glad you took the risk to capture it. Brilliant and mysterious.

Thanks, i am glad you like it, but to be honest, it is not a pure photo, and i am not the photographor either, it is a photoshop work, to illurstrate one of my project(still at the paper phase), yes, it looks very convensing, isn't it? But it is not real, sorry, if it disappointed you.

It's still impressive shaw... even more so, but in a very different way. I'm amused and definitely not disappointed. This demonstrates your creative and playful imagination. If John Constable can exercise his artistic licence by relocating a few trees within his canvas (not to mention an available cloud formation) then you certainly can, even though you admit to not being the photographer. My compliments to you.

Thanks again Mr. Sean, that's very inspiring compliments to me, as you extended the meaning as its second creator, as your impression to this wild white cloud from the vanishing point of the express way, referring to the ancient English romantic painter, John Constable, one of whose famous painting appeared on my middle school's art test book. What interested to me is this very google+photoshop work, reminds you a oil work on canvas done in the middle of the Qing Dynasty in Suffolk, UK, could be very close your hometown too?
Seriously to me, is the shape of the tree to me, i was willing to illustrate more on it, but what i googled, always can not satisfied me very, so i did thinking to sketch, then it's like i regained the freedom of creativity.
