cloud sea
Sky's white expanse
A cloud sea is a vast expanse of clouds viewed from above, appearing like an ocean of white stretching to the horizon.
The term describes what you see from a mountain peak or airplane when clouds blanket the landscape below: We climbed above the cloud sea at dawn.
The Japanese term *unkai* captures the same phenomenon, prized by hikers and photographers for its ethereal beauty.
