These clouds appear as stepping stones in the sky and the hot air. The picture reminds us of the strange forms clouds can take. Nothing can build up as fast, appear and vanish again. You look at it and the next moment they are gone or a new form shapes up … a playground of nature and its creativity.

I made an early morning trip to shoot pictures of a fort in Qatar. After the shoot was done I was returning home. It was a long drive along a desolate road. Winter had just started and the clouds were returning to the desert landscape. As if by magic, the clouds split and appeared in a neat line. The fence next to the road provided a good vertical balance. The clouds all merged together and were blown away some time later. I really enjoyed taking this picture, to show to everyone some of the patterns nature can throw at random.
