Look up to the Skies

60 comments


Some of you kindly expressed an interest in the sky photos I had put on, so for you I have put together a few more photos ~ these were taken from the Lickeys area, North Worcestershire today.

you may like to take a seat and enjoy the view:

take the path ahead…

This is a view not far from my house and I love it:

Suddenly the skies can darken, but they remain beautiful:

It makes me feel better to look up to the skies, hope it helps you too.

Me too...I love the penultimate pic Sticki. I was gazing out of my bedroom at the stars at some ungodly hour this morning...couldn't sleep, overtired I think..but I saw a shooting star and the sky was really bright with stars and that always makes me feel better somehow.....but I didn't want to get up at 8am this morning!!

I didn't quite know how to put that about looking up but I can trust a poet to give it the right words! Thank you.

Beautiful views Sticki....:>)

Hi Sticki,

My favorite is the third one.. God's face? neat.

27 Sep, 2011

 

thank you motinot and rusty ~ can you see shapes in the clouds rusty? its a shame that the blue sky doesnt come out so well in that one ~ havent worked out how to do that on the camera.

27 Sep, 2011

 

Thanks Sticki . . . this is such a lovely idea for a blog! (And I'm listening to "your" music too, at the same time, from your blog on John's garden - like it very much, and will send the link to MY Steve!)

Lying on my back looking at blue sky and clouds is one of my favourite things - luckily frequently indulged since retiring. :)))

27 Sep, 2011
