Clouds

I submit this picture, taken at the Ponds three hours ago, with apologies to one of Japan's greatest. Of course, Hokusai's 葛飾北斎 (1760 - 1849) paintings and woodcuts were of waves, but I think this morning's clouds bore them a striking resemblance. And if, per chance, you are not familiar with Hokusai, I beg you to Google him right away.
