Love the pic and the poem. You certainly take your reader to another world, Ron.

Ian Gould · [Wed Jul 16, 2008 8:49 pm]

You have captured the wonder and the thrill.

Hi Ron,
Nice to see this one "over here".
Cheers

Blimey

just checked the timing on your reviews, guys - 3 reviews in 2 minutes - almost as fast as freefall itself. Cool

Did you create this poem whilst taking the photo?

I am well impressed. Multi tasker or what!

Cheers, Beds

Shelley · [Wed Jul 16, 2008 9:04 pm]

Ron, you must have been absolutely fearless to do that. It must have been an incredible feeling. Disco ball

Ron · [Wed Jul 16, 2008 9:06 pm]

So long as you're impressed I'll settle for that, Beds. Laughing

Hi Ron,

It's amazing how a mass of water vapour can exhibit itself. Beautiful imagery, andd an awesome photo.

Great poem Ron.

If I had written it, this line

'that takes your breath away at the sight of its beauty'

would have been just

'that takes your breath away'

But I didn't! Great pic too.

Hi Ron
I like the two perspectives - one a day of serenity, the other just a few moments so much more memorable.

Nice one Ron, enjoyed it. (you wouldn't get me out of a plane like this unless my trousers were on fire!)

Ron · [Thu Jul 17, 2008 1:50 pm]

Cheers folks, Cool

Scarlet,

Yeah, that feeling of total freedom, hey - the joy of breathing in and out without any worldly pressures on your mind, whether you are sat relaxing in the park or hurtling through the clouds away from the rat race of so-called 'modern life'. It is as though you are in Heaven in those moments.

Patrick,

Hi buddy, yeah, toyed with that line for a second in my head but didn't want the 'speed' to be the only thing to take the breath away - wanted the image of the cloud and the speed to be part of the same experience.

Thanks for dropping by. Cool

Hi Looby,

So good to see your name on my work again. Cool

I have cloud-picture memories in my head that have been there for years, and fleeting moments of sheer awesomeness that are also unforgettable. I like to tell of these things.

..............

Metman,

I wouldn't advise you to jump out of a plane just because your trousers were on fire - you'll look like a flaming comet, man. Shocked

If you do jump - flaming trousers or normal, not-on-fire, trousers - make sure you are wearing a rig. It's safer that way. Wink

...............

Well, thanks again, folks, glad I could take you there again. Cool
