No, there really aren't any pictures of the electron cloud of an aluminum atom. Atoms are too small for conventional pictures. There are drawings of the electron clouds of atoms, but they're just "fuzzy shapes" because the location, or, rather, the probable location, of electrons cannot be precisely stated. It can only be given as a probability density function - an "indefinite area where an electron is most likely to be" as it is hanging around in orbit. The shapes of the electron clouds vary as we look at them from atom to atom. A link is provided to a post introducing the viewer to the basic shapes.

What is an electron cloud shaped liked?
The shape of an electron cloud depends on the energy sublevel. Each electron cloud is different, so there is no definitive shape.
What is the charge on the cloud or shell of the atom?
The charge of an electron cloud is negative. The electron cloud is made up of electrons, and the electrons are negatively charged. The electron cloud will have a negative charge as well.
How many particles do the atom have?
5, electron, proton, neutron, nucleus, and electron cloud.
Does a electron cloud have a specific size?
It is impossible to know exactly where an electron is. Thus, the size of an electron cloud can be given only in terms of probability. Even then, the size of the electron cloud depends on how many electrons an atom possesses.
What particles are located in the electron cloud?
Electrons are the particles found in electron clouds.
What is a electron cloud?
An electron cloud is an atomic orbital.
Is the electron found in the electron cloud or in the nucleus?
Cloud...
Is the electron found in the electron cloud or the nucleus?
Cloud...
What is a detailed explanation of the electron cloud model?
Scientist use the electron cloud model to represent an atom.In the electron cloud model, an atom has two distinct regions-the nucleus and the electron cloud.
Where are the nucleus and electron cloud?
nucleus is in the middle and the electron cloud is around it
How do you draw an electron cloud model?
How do you draw and electron cloud for 2Br and for Br2
Where is a electron cloud located?
The electron cloud in an atom is located outside of the nucleus.
What is an electron cloud made of?
An electron cloud is made up of protons and neutrons.
What is the region of electrons?
The electrons of an atom are located in the electron cloud.
What is an electron cloud shaped liked?
The shape of an electron cloud depends on the energy sublevel. Each electron cloud is different, so there is no definitive shape.
The electron cloud is least dense where the probability of finding an electron is?
the electron cloud is least dense where the probability of finding an electron is LOWEST
How can you use atom electron nucleus and electron cloud in the same sentence?
Electron in an atom is represented by electron cloud around the nucleus
