Collecting Clouds
Start your own cloud collection, just like Cooper did. Photograph clouds and take notes in your field notebook about what makes them interesting to you. Can you find clouds that are shaped like animals, cars, or other objects? What about clouds with different patterns or textures? Dark clouds? Pink clouds? You might try looking at clouds at different times of the day. (Clouds reflect beautiful shades of pink, gold, and orange at sunrise and sunset.) Or look at clouds just after a thunderstorm and notice how sunlight breaks through. You might even see a rainbow!
