Dark and Blue

We have seen a lot of dark clouds this week and many have brought rain showers and an occasional thunderstorm.

But there were breaks in the clouds. This one looked like a window had opened in the clouds.

Some days the skies were simply overcast.

Some days a little more blue came through.

And one day, briefly however, there was a really blue sky. See any interesting shapes?



To see more skies from around the world visit SkyWatch Friday.

That one picture does look exactly like a window!! And the last picture...of course the middle cloud is a man standing with his legs together twirling a sparkler!

fredamans said...

They are all beautiful skies, but I do love a plane in there.... makes my day!

Kelly said...

When I was a kid, a favorite past time was to lay on my back and watch the clouds change shape. I think if more people did that, there'd be less conflict in the world.

The Words Crafter said...

Oooohhhh, I LOVE clouds and you got some really sweet pics of them! Thanks for sharing!!!

Poetic Shutterbug said...

Wow, these are great. The lamp post with the flower basket is so charming, I love that look. Such dramatic skies are so beautiful. Gorgeous shots.

Sime imaginative picture taking!

Beautiful varied skies!
I love this header. Makes me want to get in my Jeep and just drive. :)

Judy Sheldon-Walker said...

We have seen very little blue or sun the last few days. I console myself with the fact that I do not need to water my lawn.

Thanks for the awesome shots.
