Description I took this on the top floor of the Eiffel Tower...
It's strange because i didnt realise the shape of the cloud before i took the picture, it was almost like it appeared on the photograph magically.
I'm not a supersticeous person but the cloud shaped like a dove really made me think. It makes me feel calm and content inside. The fact the sun shines directly out of the middle of the 'dove' adds something even more special for me.
Maybe its just a coincidence. Who knows...

sorry, I think the dove's eye is photoshoped.. it has sharp edges that don't look natural

..anyway.. a wonderful image

there ino such thing as coincidence. you got to see a very special message from the universe... and somehow capture it so u could relay it to the rest of the world.

Fantastic capture

While out sailing last year I saw a cloud shaped exactly like a question mark, it was uncanny. Its just a pitty I didnt have my camera. I did point it out to the other people though just to make sure it wasnt just me going crazy.

This is... amazing, really.
At first I thought: "Hmm.. a picture of a... sun. Yup." I didn't really paid close attention to it. But then I read your discription and it transformed in this AWESOME dove-shaped cloud, flying there with great elegance and with an almost heavenly feel to it!
Really, really fantastic

Thanks for your kind comment... I guess it does look a bit like a plain old sun at first! However the dove shape really stood out for me.
Im glad you like this piece. Thanks for your support

Yeah it really stands out once you point it out!
Do you know only 1 out of 3 people can recognise shapes in clouds?
I was stupified when I heard that.

Ha yeah, and I'm glad you made this piece! Yet another fabulous piece for my fav list

Wow really? Thats amazing... i must be one of those people then hehe.
I hope other people can realise this piece is about the dove and not just the sun

Well, if they read your discription, I'm sure they do. It helped me figure it out At first I just didn't know it was about the cloud, I thought the main subject was the sun so I didn't look any further. But the discription defenitely helped, so I'm sure it'll help other slow people too!

Well, I'm sΓΊre I'm right!
Plus, you already have 6 fav's and that probably wouldn't have happened if they just looked at your piece and saw a sun in the sky.

If 'hehe' translates into 'Paris is the greatest city in the world.

Then I concur.

The terms are:

You're on Metro Line 6. Halfway in between Passy and Bier Hackiem. Above the Seine. You're listening to 'Take Five' by Autumn leaves. The mid-quartet kicks in and the sun is just rising. A passing gypsie, done with his accordion playing and asking for money, drops his book; it's 'Catcher In The Rye'. You've just finished reading it. You meet his eyes and he winks at you. You sigh under your breath. All the man hears is:

'hehe'.
