Gorgeous skies, Sylvia! How can we not be in "awe" of nature and the beautiful world we live in when we are witness to skies like those. Have a lovely weekend. Mickie :)
I always enjoy your Seattle skies. Ours are a bit cloudy and drippy today after a long clear spell. I welcome it, actually, I'm worried that we may not get enough rain this year but it is early yet.
That first shot is spectacular. Love the quotes, especially about dreams.
You and your family are in my thoughts all the time Sylvia.
such beauty, Sylvia!
You've had some wonderful skies! That first shot is amazing.

Beautiful sky with colors and exquisite snowy mountain in the background, pure beauty. greetings.
beautiful series and the first photo is my favourite. have a wonderful week.
Glorious, all of them but the touch of green in the first one is a rare sight.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend . . .
Please send these lovely skies a little north, Sylvia, - we are being grey sky-ed - but this morning it snowed a little and that lightened things up a bit.
Lovely pics as always and I favor the Faulkner quote--went on a Yoknapatawpha County reading binge some years ago, all 13 novels in 15 weeks.
I always enjoy your sunsets Sylvia. Love that Anais Nin quote.
your selection of quotes always so lovely.... and your captures marvelous!
Your skies haven't lost their special magic in the time I have been away....and I love your quotes especially the first and last ones.
You make my day, always, Sylvia. Thanks.
The skies are so much more open in Seattle than they are back East. Love the ability to see Mount Ranier.
Such wonderful sky drama!
Beautiful skies! I love the way the falling snow goes with the mountain in the top photo!
Those lovely snowflakes are back again on your blog!
Beautiful skies you have this week! Hope your week is the same.
Aweson skies and quotes, Sylvia. Have a wonderful weekend. I'm off to the "wilds" of Kenya for ten days. Blessings and hugs Jo
I believe that "meditation of the past" is what often gives my mother her sad nights. Sigh... and there's nothing I can do.
Awesome :)
Your skies are real beautiful !
Hi there - I really like the colour cast on that first image - seems to make the picture look a little different.
