Last summer in England was a good one for skies.
I made my sister drive me up to the Downs
Where I got a gorgeous view of Lancing College —
And the sea melting into the horizon and becoming sky.
I also made her stop in a lay-by as I was fascinated
By the bright blue of the rain-washed sky
In contrast to the soft gold of the sheep-dotted hills.
And finally, this sky stopped me —
Dramatic, moody and beautiful
(Not unlike a lot of us)!
I’m away in England and might not get round to visiting you all.
For more great-looking skies, please visit: Skywatch.
All the emotions, the words, feelings are out there in nature if one looks. You look. That’s simply a good thing.
I identify with the last image, though not the words -okay I lied, the words as well -busted and guilty as charged.

You have an “eye” for photography. I liked the last image the best but the other two were photos to make the mind think and kept on looking at them again and again until finally I could think of something to say. Nice work!
