Except for its colours, the skyscape that I once saw above Lake Wanaka resembles the landscape I sometimes see from my window in the Himalayas: rolling mountain ranges rising in the mist above a layer of low-hanging clouds.
The skyscape in the picture is nothing else than ‘a visible mass of condensed watery vapour floating in the atmosphere’ (from the definition of the word ‘cloud’ in my Oxford dictionary) above Lake Wanaka. But what an amazing mass they make, these blue layers of condensed watery vapour floating like a landscape in the air!
