Posted June 12, 201410 yr When shooting a photo outside, we quickly realize how important of a role the sky plays in how our picture turns out. Clouds are a huge part of that landscape and sometimes their presence can make or break a great photo opportunity. That's your task this week! Find a photo that you've taken — or snap a new one — that just wouldn't be the same without clouds in the sky. The contest begins today and ends Tuesday, June 17th at 6 p.m. Eastern time. Good luck! It's also time to announce the winners of our last photo contest! And the winners are... Congrats to forum members rumpigs and Argee21 on snagging a win in our foodies contest!
