Using the Sky as Your Backdrop

Mother Nature has supplied photographers with a wonderful backdrop, when shooting animals that fly! The fluffy white clouds against a clear blue sky are pure photographic beauty!  Use the surroundings found in nature especially the cloud structure and forms to enhance your photographs of wildlife. The final result is quite astounding!  I grately appreciate the followers  who have been sending in brilliant captures! I plan on dedicating a few days to photography shot only by followers after I categorize your pictures into some semblance of order!  If you feel that you have a brilliant capture that you wish to share remember to send it in an attachment to rainbowsofhappiness2013@gmail.com please put the title blog photography in the subject line so I don’t overlook your contributions.  I’m very excited about the photography I’ve received so far and cannot wait to share it with everyone and highlight you all in my Authors Corner! For now some examples of using the sky as your natural backdrop! Enjoy my friends!
