 What is still calm can easily be grasped.
What has not yet emerged can easily be considered.
What is still fragile can easily be broken.
What is still small can easily be scattered.
One must work on what is not yet there.
One must put in order what is not yet confused.
A tree trunk the size of a fathom
grows from a blade as thin as a hair.
A tower nine stories high
is built from a small heap of earth.
A journey of a thousand miles
starts in front of your feet.

Great shot - personally I find it hard to get so much tonal detail in skies when I keep them in color instead of converting to b&w. The quote is perfect for it.

I think you should have followed Don's lead and put the whole thing on there in text. Though it might have been a hair busy at 640 pixels... :-)

Nicely captured sky. The composition of the text seems a little off balance, though.

Beautiful shot, beautiful quote. Why that awful lower border?
