Sky Watch Friday!
Time to look up and share your beautiful skies with us! Sky Watch is hosted each week by Klaus and the Sky Watch Team -- Klaus, Sandy, Wren, Fishing Guy and myself. Click on the icon, read/follow the instructions, sign up and share and enjoy the beauty of skies from all over the world.
We have had some of those awesome springtime skies lately and I think my camera may have become permanently attached to my hand -- which is fine with me as it gives me an excuse for not doing anything else!! My son, Adam, may rue the day he gave me his camera two years ago and told me to go have fun!

Beautiful, beautiful skies! Seems we'll be getting some good sunsets over the next few days with the volcano in Iceland erupting, so I'll try to get some shots of that.

Great collection of shots. I love those first few shots with the lacy clouds.
Those are gorgeous and wonderful skies!
Love all your photos!
Happy SWF Sylvia.
OMG those first two photos I've never seen a sky like that. It is just wonderful :) Brilliant skies my friend :)
These are certainly beautiful clouds. I love this series of photos. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely skies and great pictures as always!
Wish you a great weekend:-)
the second photo is my favourite.

As usual these are all so beautiful. I particularly love the whispy clouds in the first shots because they seem to be dancing. Great quotes too.
Wonderful spring sky photo´s! Great shots!Have a nice weekend!
Marvelous. The white lines in the sky look like strokes by paint brush.
Sylvia, what amazing shots. I love the crazy blue skies with the mares tails, although I tend to call them angel wings. Just wonderful spring sky shots and very apt quotes to go with them.
Enjoy the wonder of the season and you get used to not moving without your camera after a while. I don't use a handbag any more, just take my camera case.
Have lots of fun my friend.

Awesome sky post!!!! Thanks for sharing.
Oh, I love those wispy clouds! Have a wonderful weekend!
Those whispy clouds are great - they always remind me of summer days running around in fields and having picnics - not long until we can do that with out shivering under the blanket! xo
It looks like the clouds try to make their own firework - but they are so soft and nice so it looks like feathers instead ;)
Have a nice weekend, Sylvia!
Wow! Those clouds are beautiful, happy and dancing! And the spring blooms are just gorgeous!
Dear Sylvia, the first and second is my favorit:)
Amazing!!!
Oh, so very beautiful. So spacious and bright.
Lovely lovely pics!
Lol @ the camera being stuck in your hands!
Keep having fun..
beautiful :)
All the energy of Spring is in these skies. Beautiful.
I love the quotes you included but the 5th photo is a stunner! perfect postcard!
Well, I can see why your camera is permanently attached to your hand. These skies are wonderful!
I love it when the sky looks like that. It's a great time to open up the imagination and a great time to snap pictures. Yours are really nice sylvia.
:)
In your first few shots the clouds look positively skittish!
Stunning cloudscapes. I like them really wispy too.
amazing!!! the first three photos looks like an ocean wave.
Wonderful images...and I love the quotes.

Love all your shots, but I am especially fond of the mare's tail cirrus clouds. They are terrific!
glorious blue skies with fluffy clouds Sylvia! have a great weekend! :)
In those first few pictures, the clouds remind me of jellyfish!!! So cool!!
Where do you always find these wonderful, inspiring quotes, Sylvia? I just love them!! Thanks!
I like the top two photos, looks like an artist have short strokes of white paint.
No wonder Confucious is reckoned to be so smart.
Yowsa! What clouds! And what a delightful time of year to be alive, yes?
Happy Friday, Syvia.
Oh wow it looks like little angels in the sky. Happy weekend!

Incredible skies, those wispy clouds in the first three look like they should fall apart.
What lovely skies, Sylvia. I'm looking forward to your spring photos.
Hi Sylvia, you certainly have had some awesome skies! I think the clouds in the last one look like a white cat. Have a great weekend!
With skies like these - do not lose that camera!
Amazing cloud formations.
Great shot.

Sylvia: This was a neat look at the sky with all the white clouds in the blue sky.
As usual such lovely skies! I can't get a badge though to link up with skywatchfriday on my site. I copy paste the badge as per the instructions on the skywatch page but somehow the link does not get embedded. Please help!
From the look of your beautiful header, now I really know it's spring. It's gorgeous! I've been missing blogging so just HAD a stop by for a little visit. Your wispy clouds really lift my spirit.
The patterns of the clouds are so dynamic, vibrant and different!! Nice shots!

Those feathery clouds are so very pretty! It's been a great week. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Love the wispy wave-like clouds in the first two shots. Great skies indeed!
Have a lovely weekend.
Splendid series of shots! I like those wispy wave-clouds. Fantastic shots, as always.
You made me smile with your statement..." I think my camera may have become permanently attached to my hand -- which is fine with me as it gives me an excuse for not doing anything else!!" .....when I was on my vacation, my husband told me that my camera is my new baby because am carrying it all the time :-)
Have a great weekend Sylvia.
Beautiful skies, - wonderful quotes.
such clear skies..i just wished I had seen more of them when I was visitg US last month
These feathery clouds are so beautiful! And the spring blooms are lovely!
I wish you a great weekend.

Hi Sylvia, you know what? I love cloud watching and your first two photos fascinated me!
fine work.It is very difficult to find really or manipulated.
You and your camera captured some beautiful skies, Sylvia. Tell your son I said, thank you!
I enjoy reading your pleasant thoughts of the day.
Those first few shots look like watercolor paintings. Beautiful!
Love the beautiful clouds. Have a great weekend
Looks like some just reached up and painted those wispy clouds in the sky!
Sylvia you know how to capture the white clouds well! I see them too here but often do not know what to do with them! Have a great weekend.
beautiful windswept skies and as always, love your quotes! happy skywatching! Mine is here.
All of them are masterpieces. Love the beautiful scenery captured especially those on the skies. Very detailed. The movement of the clouds can be clearly seen. All of them look like paintings from an artist. My favourite goes to the small aytch on the great blue sea and the last photo. :-)
It's so surprising ! you live on another continent but you have the same landscapes and skies like I have here on these pictures. They could have been taken behind our house, lol !
One can never tire of blue, blue skies and pure white clouds and wisps - lovely, Sylvia, as always.
Beautiful capture of those flying mare's tail, Sylvia! I love the contrast of wispy white and deep blue.
as usual Sylvia..ur photographs are beautiful..it seems someone has moved paintbrush over the skies
Fantastic set of clouds, blue sky and quotes. Always a treat to come here and visit.
OH my goodness those are simply spectacular photos....the one's with the clouds reminds me of little fingers reaching out toe grasp the sky.....wonderfully done...thank you!
Oh wow, I love that second to last shot with the bright green fields and blue skies above.
your pictures are awesome. and i bet your son is thrilled with what you did with his camera.
have a nice weekend. thanks for sharing
Is hope you'll thank your son for us. You've captured some beautiful sky pictures. I really like the wispy clouds in your first two pictures.
that was some fancy clouds. :)
