Fantastic and beautiful pictures of the sky and the clouds.
All great shots, but I sure love the evening glow of the scene in the 4th pic, simply gorgeous!!
Wonderful shots Sylvia. I love the golden skies and the one that looked to me like the clouds formed a puffy comforter. The quotes are all great. My favorite is "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

Sylvia, you've come up with another amazing set of skies here, very nicely done. Thank you for all the kind comments on my blog, and for the work you do on the Skywatch Friday meme. Both are very much appreciated.
Hi Sylvia! I have missed you! I truly was so busy this past summer getting my boy settled in and getting everything he needed. I haven't been blog hopping in months and months. I took some beautiful sky shots when I was in Washington this summer too - we don't have many cloudy days here in Jeddah. Hopefully I'll be a more conspicuous presence now in the blogging world!
so much beauty in your photos!
