The title is a musical genre, but nature can also happily sing the blues.

Each of the clouds in here have the sun behind them, as the sun enhances the blue colors in the sky.

Blues lyrics reflect an inner sadness and grief, expressing emotions that might be easier to sing than to speak. But not so in nature, as the blues can also mean beauty, and by the way, blue is my favorite color. Words are powerful, and it is mostly based on one's worldview. Just to note that words can also heal, or hurt, as it is based on one's convictions, and emotions. We have a choice to select the words that we use, and it can be either light or dark. Good, or bad. I prefer to see the beauty in life, even though I have a history of being hurt, and I find my solace in nature, as it holds many lessons about how life was meant to be.

So, come and see how the clouds play with the sun.

The same cloud crept out from behind the trees, and I was waiting for it to see how it would develop above the mountain range.
The four photos below, will show you the beauty of the cloud with the sun behind it.

Slowly, the cloud moved away, but a piece of it was still hiding the sun.

And finally, just a look at a lone mountain towards the north, as all of the photos above were taken due east.

Some say that nature is cruel, and others say that nature is a healer, so how can this be? Cruel and healer don't seem to fit in the same bracket. Just so it is with words, as I have explained in the introduction. But I don't want to go into deep things here, as my prior motive was to show you the beauty that can be conjured up by nature. It is this same beauty that keeps all of us alive, as we as humans can simply not exist without nature. Just a pity that so many don't care about it, but that is a talk for another post, as I read somewhere that scientists discovered nano plastics in the brains and bodies of people.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures and story.
