Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is illustrated in this photo of colored streaks of light flowing and streaming through high altitude clouds from an aerial perspective. One of the light streaks is headed up by a flare of white light in an indication of a data packet such as is the stuff of the Internet. Conceptual imagery depicting cloud computing is both difficult to find and necessary as the world moves towards an ever larger online presence. The "Cloud" is becoming increasing omnipresent both in business and in our personal lives as globalization expands relentlessly. This particular metaphor for cloud computing is crafted to work well as a horizontal, square or vertical crop and has plenty of copy space for headlines and text as well as for inset photos.

Online Computing And The Internet

Online computing and the Internet are subjects that can be a challenge to portray in a photograph. The use of steaks of light in this photo serve well as a metaphor for streaming data and wireless communications. The high angle and high altitude point of view add to the drama and unusual nature of this image making it more likely to stop a viewer and compel him or her to read the accompanying message be it advertising, editorial or promotional in nature.

Photography of the "Cloud"

Photography of the "Cloud" is relatively rare as the concept of cloud computing and online communications is a hard one to illustrate with a camera. But there are ways as in this photo of brightly colored lights streaking through the Cumulus clouds as seen from above. Other symbolism inherent in this photo includes speed, communications technology, global communications and wireless service. This is also an image about connection and even bandwidth issues.
