The same with a higher sun.

I know this is a very long time ago thread, but if it can be responded I want to
know what is the pattern (density) of the cloud. I'm doing some effort in a
program which need generate cloud shape. And this... I admire its pattern.(and
with its cloud thickness)

I also like some other ones by different person. But It would be great if ... I
can imitate its fluffy feature.this image.

Have you looked at

Mosty I use the granite pattern for fluffy clouds:

density{ granite scale 5
    turbulence 0
    color_map {
     [.5 rgb 0.0]
     [1 rgb 1.0]
     }}

For single clouds, you can use the spherical pattern, scaled to the 
desired proportions, and add some turbulence.
For a group of clouds, you can use the bozo/bumps pattern and modulate 
it with a granite or agate pattern, also with a fair amount of turbulence.

You can use several wrap{turbulence...} at various scales to get the 
fine details. You can also increase the octaves and use larger omega 
parameter to get a similar effect.

For stratus clouds, a simple plane with some pattern can do the trick. 
Those are high altitude, thin clouds.

For the cloud shape itself, I use turbulence (and its 'omega' value) in the
media's density statement, to get the broken-up wispy look; although,
Kontemplator's use of the granite pattern (and no turbulence) is an interesting
way to do it too. The correct amount of turbulence/omega is really an artistic
decision-- whatever looks pleasing. It's difficult to say what the 'correct'
cloud shape should be.

Kirk Andrews' clouds in his original image posts here look quite sophisticated--
probably a *combination* of media types (scattering and absorption, maybe) as
well as scattering media for the overall atmosphere, to cast light-shadow rays.
His clouds look like they are scaled smaller in the y-axis (in other words, the
original spherical cloud shape was squashed down slightly) to make them look
more realistic.

This code is for one of my own typical clouds-- although I usually change
*something* every time I make one!

                            [1.0 rgb 1]
                             }
                   scale 2.5
                   warp{turbulence .8 omega .7}
                   scale 1/2.5
                   }
              }
             }
          scale <1,.6,1>
         }
