Skywatch Friday

Dusk....from the deck of our hotel room in San Diego...

SOOC. Blurry, but I love the colors and of course, no tripod!

Skywatch Friday

A couple weeks ago I was driving home at dusk and I turned the corner and saw all this color...

I pulled over and shot this remarkably unattractive Port of Seattle building! I hated the look of it in the shot, so I decided to drive a few blocks out of my way and get up on a hill above the next town.

Of course, by then I was losing the color.

Which I guess is a lesson to work with what you have in front of you... at least around sunset!

Skywatch Friday

Today's entry is part of a series of photos I took last week...

This one doesn't really qualify as a sky shot because you can barely see the sky. But I'm in love with the perspective... and the contrast of blue balloon and blue sky.... and the reflection of the sky in the central air heater!

This is another shot taken from up in the balloon that shows part of Puget Sound and a hint of the lovely clouds just behind that tree...

Here's a much better view of the clouds after we came down from the balloon. It seemed like the sky would never end!

The proverbial dark cloud... and I think I see some silver lining! Taken on a blustery day overlooking  Puget Sound...

Skywatch Friday

It's been so hot here the last few days, that it's given me the oppotunity to shoot a hazy summer sky early in the year. These were taken down at our pier, a salt water part on Puget Sound which has rocky beaches instead of sandy...

This is the fishing pier by the marina. You can see the silhouette of the Olympic Mountains in the background. Underneath the pier, you can see a wind surfer...

There he is!

 

The beach, the surfers and the people seeking an escape from the high temperatures....

All under the heated, hazy sky...

Skywatch Friday

I took this picture last week on the way back to the office. I came around the corner and there it was....

A necklace of clouds around the mountain!

I love the weather around the mountain.... you get the most interesting clouds!
