Sky Watch Friday!


Time to share your skies! It's Sky Watch Friday, hosted each week by Klaus and the Sky Watch team of Klaus, Sandy, Wren, Fishing Guy and myself. Each week hundreds of people from all over the world share their skies, click on the icon, sign up and share the beauty of yours!

As always it seems, here in the northwest we get endless and ever changing skies and I never tire of their beauty.

Loneliness adds beauty to life. It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better. Henry Rollins
