Sky Watch Friday!

Time to share the beauty of your skies with us! Sky Watch is generously hosted each week by Klaus, Sandy, Ivar, Wren, Fishing Guy and Louise! Click here to sign up and enjoy beautiful skies from all over the world!



Here in Seattle we have some of the most beautiful skies ever and it is so much fun to share them with you every week!

And what is this creature floating about our deck?



Beautiful clouds and sky as seen from my favorite park above the harbor near our house.



The next three are just some of the many, many varieties we can see on any given day! They always make it worthwhile to take a minute to look up! Have a great weekend!

Aren't clouds the most amazing things? Your photos are wonderful.

What is that creature? It must be a huge glowing flying squirrel that got way too much radiocative radiation when Chernobyl blowed up.

Regina said...

Nice skies and shots.
Enjoy your weekend Sylvia.

That looks like some one-eyed square pants creature above your deck Sylvia! :)

I love the variety of clouds and scenes in this post; those sweeping skies!

That creature reminds me of Woodstock from Peanuts. And I've been to your park. What a great view from up there. I stumbled upon the park the day I went to Ballard and Golden Gardens.

Your skies are always lovely and today's series is no exception. We've not seen many clouds at all lately ... just blue skies once the early morning grey skies clear ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

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.
