Lovely cloud shot. And the title you've given it....Wind horse. Some goods friends of mine have a place in Nova Scotia called "Windhorse". A Buddhist term, I believe.

Yes, and thank you again, FA. "Wind Horse" is Lung Ta in Tibetan, a gentle, mythical creature with uplifting energy, who carries prayers from Earth to Heaven. The image is on prayer flags Tibetan Buddhists hang in (usually, I think) sets of 5 (or multiples) with other auspicious signs.
