Sometimes a cloudy day can lead to great exposures as the dynamic range of the light on your subject is reduced to something closer to what your camera can capture.
On sunny days, the sunlight can push that range beyond your camera's abilities. My shots that look like the bloom is almost suspended in darkness take advantage of the sun's intense light overload to virtually erase the background.
This shot is an example of the first situation with reduced dynamic range allowing the camera to strut its stuff.

Nice shots Mike! And everyone for that matter.
Remember Wayne Gretzky's quote;
"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."
It applies to photography as well.
(Josieskid, Wayne Gretzky played on the same team as Rabindranath Tagore.)
