I loveloveloved Man on Wire. Philippe Petit is now among my art heroes, alongside Christo and Jeanne-Claude. [Common elements of these artists include careful engineering and rigging, temporary installations on famous structures, and doing it for the sheer beauty of it. Christo and Jeanne-Claude did (and are still doing) their thing legally, going through years and sometimes decades to obtain the appropriate permissions, resulting in large-scale works installed for a few weeks.] Philippe Petit approached his "installations" as capers, resulting in arrest after risking his life on the high wire. The documentary was a wonderful telling of his story by those who assisted him in his most famous wire-walk, between the top of the two towers of the former World Trade Center, as well as the man himself, still evidently spry and full of joie de vivre.
For those who don't want to wait for the movie, there is at least one book.
A love looking at the sky. I haven't done cloud photos in quite awhile. Here are a couple
