Description
Do you ever see pictures formed by clouds in the sky? They can be quite subtle and can fool your eyes.
See what I mean?
We had some beautiful cloud formations a week or so ago. I got a few nice shots, then had a little fun…
Looks like more delays coming for the TNA story. I’ve been having a lot of issues with my main Photoshop computer – the one with the Cintique. This is actually the oldest machine I have – still running Win 7, believe it or not. It’s the only machine I have that supports the Wacom Cintique; also an older but still working piece of equipment.
This older machine will not support the newer versions of Photoshop, so it’s running an older version – CC2019. I’m starting to have some issues with it wanting me to sign in, then getting caught in a “sign-in loop” where it just keeps throwing the sign-in pop-up at me.
I have a newer machine with the latest PS version on it, but it will not support the Cintique. And Adobe is now apparently shutting down the authentication servers for older versions of PS that are not subscription-based.
Dammit. Looks like I’m gonna have to do some $hopping….
Anyway, I’m doing some work-arounds, and moving stuff from the older units. So bear with me.. The TNA story WILL continue, but there will be some delays until I get this mess resolved. As if I don’t have enough on my plate already.
Thanks for understanding.

Wonderful capture, Rod, this is just beautiful! It makes me want to start doing photography again. I saw a screaming guy in there at first glance but you could literally find more and more every time you look at it. Like that teeny tiny woman standing there, hahaha, I missed that the first time. :)
Fantastic Cloudscapes! Great View!
Adobe dose not want people to use their old programs they only want people to spend and then spend, Now their programs is good but who can afford the £60 MTH FOR THEM
I love to look up and watch the shapes form and then break up
I hope you solve all this soon, so you can continue TNA adventure. interesting clouds... looks almost like someone screaming at the sky... well at least to me.
I love to gaze at the clouds and see what my imagination can find in them :)
I never toss out my old PC's I have an old 486 running windows XP that I still use in case of emergency to access the net
almost looks like what i saw earlier here Rod Colorado has wonderful ones also. beautiful capture indeed.. sounds like each computer is giving issues one way or another my friend. will be waiting for net installment of T.N.A.
Beautiful sky shot!
i swear that same cloud was over my house, too!!! Fun image!
You may be able to log in to your Adobe account and get a download of an installer that doesn't need an internet connection or log in to work. Adobe let me do that with my copy of CS3 so take a look and see. I still occasionally fire up a very old Mac to use CS3, though there is little reason to do it nowadays as I have Affinity Photo.
Or just buy Affinity Photo, if you're an experienced Photoshop user it will take very little time to get used to it.
Anyway I hope your troubles are quickly solved!
Planned obsolescence strikes again, unfortunately. I've been using GIMP ever since Adobe took Creative Suite cloud-only.
very cool
I sometimes look at the clouds, but I never happened watching an angel standing up there. Great picture!
That's a great looking image Rod, every now and then here in Southern California we see similar beautiful clouds also, with the exception of the many man made chem-trails that abound high in the skies above. What we don't have is clouds with so much feminine sex appeal as the cloud you have here my friend. lol :-)
Beautiful photo! If Photoshop keeps getting stuck you might want to give Krita a try. Even if the newest version doesn't run on Win7 there are links to older versions available on their site.
i am always cloud-morphing... hehe..
i remember very clearly driving with a friend, and i'm in the passenger seat looking out and up, and there is this very tall, long formation that truly looked like an angel standing in the sky facing away from our car... and as i watched, the bit that formed her head continued to alter its shape so it seemed as if she was starting to turn her face towards us. it absolutely left me breathless, and feeling quite small and humble...and i noticed i was holding my breath the entire time... just an incredible experience...
i do hope you get your creative 'equipment' sorted out :))
Supebly done Rod.
Re old machines, I hear you... I still keep an old Win7 platform for my pld MIDI sequencing softfare (it would cost hundreds to upgrade to a modern DAW, as weel a s steep learning curve, so i keep putting it off) . As for old PS versions, I still use CS2 that has the signup requirement too, but i manage to get round it by saying "not now" at login, though Ive no idea how long that will work for. I guess GIMP is the logical next step as its free... though id di have to but a more recent Wacom tablet the would be recognised on win 10/11, but theyre relatively easy to find cheap second hand.
It's wonderful how nature can do things like this.
Looks simply wonderful!! 👍🙋♂️
Beautiful photo!
Beautiful
Absolutely superb!
It's hard to let go, and greedy companies catapult you into unnecessary new equipment. Don't know the answer here, Rod, but I wish you luck sorting it all out!
I would recommend not getting another Wacom. They're overpriced for what they do. I use XP-Pen tablets. They're a much better value. Also, if you do subscribe to one of the Adobe plans, go for the "Photographer's Plan". It's only $10 a month and you get Photoshop, Lightroom, and a few other things. Those are about the only Adobe programs I use so it's a really good value for me. If you have questions, feel free to message me on here or Facebook or wherever. LOL :D Take care, my friend!
Thanks, Lizzie! I am on the Photographer's plan; it's a pretty good deal for what you get with it. Photoshop was my main goal, but I've played with Lightroom a bit as well. I'll check out those XP-Pen tablets, thanks for the info.
I just got a response from Wacom, and they're saying my Cintiq is compatible with the video card in that newest computer. I guess we'll find out when I connect everything - which will be next week sometime.
Beautiful sky my friend
That is very cool. Excellent!!
Cool !
Gorgeous cloud scape and nice little addition with the lady. Fantastic!
