As usual, we had lots of beautiful skies in Seattle this past week and here are a few. The sunset shot was taken at the harbor and I caught the others from our deck. We do have a fabulous view of the skies!!

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.

Hi Sylvia, This is a really great variety of really beautiful skies.
Good morning Sylvia.
First thanks for the visit and leaving me kind comment.
Second, please let me describe the pictures: All are wispy except the last
#1 looks like a Waterfall Spray
#2 a replica of Angels' wings
#3 gentle fireworks
#4 who can question the soft queenly sunset?
Beautiful skies.Great shots!
Happy weekend Sylvia.
Beautiful skies.Great shots!
Happy weekend Sylvia.
You always feature a variety of sky watch posts, which we appreciate very much. It's like a skywatch buffet. Thanks.
nice shots of the skies...amazing!
Like paintings on the roof..
Have a nice weekend, from Anne in Norway.
Do you remember that old song "Spirit In The Sky" from the ... maybe late 60's or early 70's? That started playing in my head when I saw your first shot. Surreal!
Pretty views of the sky from your place for this week. Thanks for sharing with Sky Watch Friday.
You serve very interesting clouds in the sky this SkyWatch Friday :)
I like your photos!
Your Seattle skies are indeed very beautiful! Happy Skywatching
These are beautiful. Whispy and facinating to watch.
Have a great weekend.
Such feathery clouds make one feel like reaching up and playing along!
Youu sure do have stunning skies over Seattle!
You do have a lively sky - I think I preferred the golden wisps in the third picture. They glowed.
Beautiful collection of skies! :)
Have a great weekend!
Anna
Fabulous!
Great sky shots.

Great pictures of different skies!
Those are wonderful wisps!! And the delicate colors on them are perfect!
So lovely, Sylvia! That last one is a real winner!
Beautiful sky pictures. Happy SWF to you too!
Love those wispy clouds! What great pictures. Thanks for sharing.
Those wispy clouds are my favorite kind. Hey, I thought the PNW was rainy! You seem to have fine weather.
Incredible! There are no other words.

Beautiful sky shots....I like the subtle color in the third shot...great sunset shot!
Those swoopy clouds almost like they're calligraphy...or maybe I'm just getting carried away with the 'painted sky' theme!
Fabulous skies,Sylvia! I wish you to a very happy weekend!
Those whispy clouds look like they've been combed through the air. Nice sunset.
We've been seeing some similar stuff down here lately, so for once I'm not terribly jealous. Still, these are nice to see--thanks for the end-of-week gift.
Wow, such a nice view to the sky. I think the wind speed high up must be very high to blow the cloud into that shape, and beautiful sunset.
Love your wispy cirrus clouds, especially the colorful ones. We had those today mixed with cumulus... so cool.
It's amazing how much YOUR skies resemble mine ... just LOVELY as always ;--)
Hugs and blessings,
such a delicate and lovely sky in this series of photos.
Nice skywatch shots. Love those clouds.
you really do have an amazing view of the skies!!
wonderful
Yay! Happpy Firday, Saturday and Sunday!
I love these clouds...I know them as mare's tails. You have captured them beautifully. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.
Blessings and smiles
Very lovely, Sylvia. My son was just telling me today about noctilucent clouds--luminous blue-white tendrils seen in the sky just after sunset. They are made of crystals of water ice and are being observed more frequently, with the theory being that the increase might be connected to climate change.
Anyway, your photos reminded me of these clouds. You can see photos of them at http://spaceweather.com/nlcs/gallery2009_page1.htm and another very beautiful photo in the Wikipedia article on these cloud formations at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noctilucent_cloud.
I lvoe those feathery clouds. Beautiful series.
I'm so glad you have your own camera, the first shot with the whips of rising cloud is so evocatively beautiful.
I did enjoy the cloudy sky today, and the coolness. Here today, gone tomorrow.
Beautiful set of skies you have this week!
A handful of beautiful skies for a great weekend.
These are lovely clouds. Like brush strokes on a blue canvas.
Beautiful, lovely designs in the sky.
Wonderful sky pictures, Sylvia!
Great sequence!
Beautiful west coast skies you have here. Lovely pics!
The first three pictures looked as if someone had trailed cloudy fingers across the blue-board of the sky. Great stuff!
lovely pictures. the blue skies with whitish light clouds are my faves. thank you!
Great captures, Sylvia! I have enjoyed our wonderful weather this week.
Loving your skywatch this week :)
Fantastic. Love the wide wide skies.
