Clouds with a Chance of Blue



Our area has had cooler weather and cloudy skies for most of the week. Occasionally the sun would show through but today has looked like the photo above with gray skies and rain.

To brighten things up a bit I will show you this last photo which was taken last Saturday when the skies were a little bluer.

I love the second picture with the long grass blowing in the breeze and the clouds in the brilliant blue sky being blown, kind of like the grass is.

I'm listening to the rain, the wind, and the birds as they wake up this very wet morning. Same here, Judy!

Great landscape in the last photo.

Blue skies preferred over gray.

Have a great weekend and a wonderful holiday!

Sandra said...

i like the second one with the cute little puffy cloud floating with all its sisters and brothers, they are all blue skies for sure

fredamans said...

Awesome skies! The one bird pic, it looks like one is flying upside down... great timing!

Linnea W said...

We had clouds like these yesterday...very unusual for our parts though, but we've been having strange weather lately. Love the last shot...so serene. Well done!

Betsy from Tennessee said...

They are all beautiful in their own way; the cloud formations, the birds, the sun.

Lynn said...

Gorgeous clouds and skies!

James said...

Great sky shots! It's been a while since I've seen a beautiful sky like this.

Do like the panoramic header view! And the clouds
so impressive in their puffy fullness.

Lily Robinson said...

The top of that first photo is really close to the color I've just picked to paint my living room! Bluish-grays... so relaxing.

I'm ready for some cloudy skies! It's supposed to rain tomorrow. That last one went around us. It's way too hot for me! Come on winter!

Jingle said...

lovely post!

Ratty said...

I really like these pictures. The first one made me sigh out of relaxation, and the rest continued that feeling.

Madame DeFarge said...

Fab clouds you've captured there.

The blue hue rules! (trying to ryme)

Chris said...

Although blue skies are good I love to see the shapes and shades of clouds. Your shots are great.

Between the clouds and the balloon, I am uplifted by your photos this week. Just breathtaking, simply breathtaking. I must confess that we're not squirrel fans around here. We once had a neighbor who got teased about being a squirrel relocation service. He trapped and released-- several miles away. I never encouraged this habit (but didn't protest). You do make them look cute though.

Lindy MacDuff said...

Wonderful BIG sky shots! Love the header, too.

Pretty blue skies - but the clouds are lovely too. A x

MedaM said...

This series of sky photos is just fantastic.

Judy Sheldon-Walker said...

Thanks for the beautiful sky pictures. I am fascinated by the many colors the sky can change to.
