The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter. Mark Twain Ugich Konitari has left a new comment for "Sky Watch Friday!": The Last Picture Show If all the world's a stage, and all the sky the curtain, then, given what goes on in the name of religion, power, insults, fatwas, defense, attack, and so on, is it any wonder, that the moon checks again and again, through the stage curtain before making an effort to appear in the sky ? |

"The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter." So true!! If some people are taken too seriously it might get very difficult, whereas laughter puts almost any difficult situation into perspective.
Thanks for your visit, and for always visiting me!! I appreciate that very much. Have a great weekend!
Beautiful colors, Sylvia. Have a wonderful weekend!
Perfect SWF photos,Sylvia!Every photos is wonderful but my favourite is the photos with the Sea!I love it.Have a nice weekend!
Perhaps with all the denial of climate change we may yet have the opportunity to miss the boat. Wonderful skies, yet again, I love the colors in the second one.

I love coming here every week. I enjoyed the postings so much.
I love all the different colors Sylvia! The moon is quite beautiful too.

Perfect captures to go with all of Twain's human attributes--good and bad. Thanks for sharing!
p.s. Wear your mittens this weekend :O)
I'm glad that I don't have to pick a favorite because they're all so beautiful. Wow!
Hi Silvia, like always wonderful scenery, wonderful sky, ever changing. Two men I wished to have met and I even would have cooked dinner, for Mark Twain and William Somerset Maugham. Not at the same dinner though! Always a pleasure to come and see your posts. Yes,Silvia you would be invited too.
Gorgeous photos dear Sylvia! The 4th one is my favourite! Mark Twain quotes are very interesting too! What a different world would be indeed if Noah and his family missed the boat? :)
A plethora of sky views! Very nice
You have captured some really beautiful Skies this week. I especially like the second one of the pink wispy clouds. I hope you have a wonderful week.
You really do get such interesting skies.Wow!

You have wonderful different shades, gorgeous shots. :)
A variety of beautiful skies, thanks for sharing.
Hi Sylvia! Fabulous skies!! It makes me dream of flying to some place else...;)
Wonderful Skywatch photos as always, Sylvia - my favorite is the second one with the amazing colors. Thanks for always visiting my blog, I look forward to you comments, and always enjoy seeing what you've come up with on yours!
The last two pictures are wonderful. One looks like so many sheep gambolling in the sky.
Wonderful skies Sylvia. All are beautiful but I am in love with that moon shot!
It's amazing how you manage to capture such dramatic skies week after week!
And I thought Texas had the most Spectacular Skies. All of your sky photos are Spectacular...and YOU know how amazing Texas skies can be! What an eye you have for color and composition. Love the last sky shot with the clouds in one point perspective. Kinda of reminds me of Georgia O'Keefe's clouds...just flipped over with a view from beneath rather than from above. Thanks so much for visiting my blog...I'm very honored and encouraged with my photography with your kind comments. Have a great weekend....Sue
You certainly did have some beautiful skies this week, and you've captured them beautifully. I like Mark Twain's comment about Noah. I have to agree with him at times!
You had a wonderful variety of skies last week. Love every picture.
Have a great week end Sylvia.

Nice capture . I liked the second one most .
Gorgeous images. I like what Twain has to say about laughter. Thanks for another beautiful post, my friend.
Beautiful, beautiful skies Sylvia, - and wry and witty words from Mark Twain....
The Last Picture Show
If
all the world's
a stage,
and all the sky
the curtain,
then,
given what
goes on
in the name
of
religion,
power,
insults,
fatwas,
defense,
attack,
and so on,
is it any wonder,
that the moon
checks
again and again,
through
the stage curtain
before
making an effort
to appear
in the sky ?
Love the second shot Sylvia!
Magical skies Sylvia, although I became so engrossed in Mark Twain, I had to go back to see the pictures.
Happy days my friend.
Mark twain was amazing. And your personal poet has done it again. Wonderful!
gorgeous images, wise quotes and beautiful verse!
Your skies always surpass the ones from the previous week! How do you do it?! Each one is captivating... I cannot tell you how many times I see a beautiful sunset or sunrise and wish for the camera. Your photos convince me that I must do better.
Bon weekend!
Genie
Thanks for sharing the beauties in the skies, Sylvia... Love the quotes, too...

So much beauty! Thanks for sharing Sylvia!
your photos are splendidly beautiful. have a wonderful weekend Sylvia.
Absolutely gorgeous skies, Sylvia. It did my heart good to see them since my head feels so foggy right now. I can't wait to feel better again. It looks like you've got beautiful weather over there. The islands are waiting for a rare thunderstorm right now. We've been waiting all day. It's now 8:35 at night and still nothing. The weather forecaster says everybody is tweeting him asking where the rain is.
the gold streak across the sky is absolutely stunning! love your pink sky, too.:p
have a wonderful weekend!
Hi Sylvia super stuff as usual ai love the piccies the comments and Mark Twain XXX have a good week XXX Don

Stunning sky watch photo's Sylvia
they are all beautiful. but I love the second one, these amzing colors.
Bram
Wonderful series again, Sylvia. There's so much to see in the ever changing sky. The first two are my favourites.
Enjoy your weekend!
Your photos are ravishing. On this gray and rainy day it's so wonderful to see clear, soft skies with apricot colors.
You know, the music selection you've chosen to air really does slow down the page load. I personally don't much like that particular selection, so I always have to scroll down to turn it off, every single page I visit. You might ask your readers if they like music or not. Just a suggestion.
Thanks for your visit and comment, Sara. Always appreciated. I hear from people frequently about the music, but it has all been positive and several have told me they sometimes come just to listen to the music. Yours is the first complaint that I've had. Hope you have a great weekend! Enjoy!
Sylvia
All your shots are fantastic! The beauty of the sky never cease to amaze me.
Sky watching is so therapeutic for me.
Nice shots Sylvia
lovely skies!
and such astute quotes!
as always, a pleasure to visit.
Thanks for hosting and for visiting my San Fran sky. You seem to get a different sky everyday! Enjoy the week. We finally got some rain here...
WOW your photos are sooo great. Wonderful shots. LG Tina
