wow...leave it to Sam to get that once-in-a-lifetime shot

great clarity in the color...how do you get it so crisp?

That blue is a photographer's dream. Nice.

Beautiful.....I love the crispness of the shot. Very peaceful looking...

Cool beans

Ah the colours of Canada.

Is it starting to cool down already, those leaves look like they are starting to change.

Great contrast of the pure white cloud against the blue of blue skies.

excellently titled photograph

that lonesome cloud loves lovely in the brightness of the blue and the fresh of the green... (although i wish that dead-ish tree on the left did not protrude so much, but then again, nature isnt perfect)

lovely indeed!

Quite pretty - blue, white, green. Simple. Lovely.

veeery nice again...looks like anything but bad lands

Was this taken with a polariser too? The blue in the sky is so saturated - the colours are great.

Any chance of throwing this up as a desktop too?

Great picture!
Only the old dead tree on the left is a bit disturbing and taking me away from the main theme - line of forest canopy with the only one shy cloud on the blue blue sky..

Beautiful Sky

Such "shy" clouds in an otherwise clear sky on a hot summer day, if you only have enough time to lay back and watch them for a while, tend to melt into the blue sky, having gone through a whole range of transformations which are a pleasure to watch.
Thanks for reminding me of them.

You have to make this one into a desktop!

Nice shot. Beautiful.

Nicolas, France.

hi dear, nice shut. but I have a question, do you edit you photos? I think so ... they are so beautiful. I'm updated by the way.

Nice

I love the saturation of this shot; the deepening gradient of the sky is a nice visual counterpoint to the white cloud.

Shy cloud or just a part of a bigger one? ;)
Excellent composition, btw.

This is an absolutely beautiful shot.

nice contrast, looks like a map of somewhere!

Great work of art and especially design of the website.
I've added you to my favroites...and never miss to check the updated photo..
Keep up the great work.

Pretty and ordinary study of colors...

Love the photo and ESPECIALLY the title!

i like the combination of the greens and the blue. it's a refreshing sight :)

an interestingly barren sky

amazing blues and greens. i love the colors. not a great shot in my opinion. very simple.

First comment! Woohooo. Great shot as always, mixing my two favourite colours.

Lovely picture, really great. I'd have this framed if I could.

Beautiful, rich blue sky. Excellent reproduction. Is there any post-processing on this image? So vibrant. I need to get away from the smoggy city.

Just brilliant... as usual.

where is good one if it is bad?! magnificent.

beautiful. i love the deep blue of the sky and the the way it looks against that green of the trees. strange that there is only one cloud in the sky though. this is an excellet capture sam.

Sam... you never fail to please... all your pictures leave me awe-struck.... I only wish I will be half as good as you one day.

It's so awesome, calm and tranquil.... you always capture the best shots.

Looks like full polarization on this shot. The blue is a killer. Quite funny to have an almost single cloud like that, eh?

the color is very nice, except that cloud down there is sortof disturbing. reminds me of this background picture for windows... well thats not good i hate windows.

but anyways the color is good, i like how the sky gets lighter, gotta say its not the best of yur stuff.

u rock i love this pic its very natural i love the colors of the trees and the sky!!!!

What a lonely cloud. This is a beautiful sky, but it seems to be showing some jpegish marks, the gradient doesn't appear smooth to me--maybe it's my monitor? Anyway, maybe it's just me, but I thought I ought to mention it.

Actually it was my monitor! sorry. The gamma went haywire. My bad.

The green and blue contrast, yet compliment each other so wonderfully, the peeking cloud is just an added visual benefit. Nice selection!

Wow, very vibrant blues. Nice.

intersting DOF and the contrast between the green, white and blue sky along with the sun bathed treetops and the ones with shadows.

sometimes it´s not that the cloud is shy...sometimes, she just prefers to be alone...

Presuming that's the start of a smoke signal, what does it mean? :-)

And the usual other question -- how close is the photo's blue sky to what you actually saw?

Welcome to the little cloud !

Why is it always brighter at the top left corner? Is it a result of the God of top left pixel?

First time post, long time viewer. Always enjoy the pictures! My uncle took a similar picture except his is a cloud on top of a mountain and the cloud is shaped like a bear/dog thats running on top of it! Yours looks like a ...rhino with a halo... sort of.

You are, sadly, too good a photographer to be anything other than plain annoying. I go out with my cam everyday and succeed in making potentially beautiful things look mundane; you go you with yours and make mundane things look beautiful. I HATE YOU!!!

What a wonderful sky! It is so rich and deep. Fantastic contrast between the sky and trees, and the colors below are absolutely beautiful.

Mr. Javanrouh, I discovered your site about a month ago and have been (needless to say) amazed at your work every day since. Sincerely, thanks very much for bringing all this beauty into your readers' lives.

PS. Can we *please* have a desktop version of this one?

Is that all you got from the area? I wonder what you were looking at while there. Makes me wonder.
