Power has only one duty - to secure the social welfare of the People. Benjamin Disraeli |
People who are in power make their arrangements in secret, largely as a way of maintaining and furthering that power. Don DeLillo |
Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power. Abraham Lincoln |
| Never forget that the most powerful force on earth is love. Nelson Rockefeller |
| No matter what has happened, you too have the power to enjoy yourself. Allen Klein |

These are great thoughts on power. Your pictures of the sky are also marvelous. I really like the clouds you captured in your first and third photos.

ReplyDeleteSylvia, YOU have the POWER of concentration to find these scenes as the sky changes.
ReplyDeleteYou always have the most amazing pictures of the sky! There's no way to pick a favorite because they are all so good!
ReplyDeleteI feel like I could walk right into that last shot - lovely.
ReplyDeleteYou are a true artist. I so admire the way you capture the lingering light. So wonderful.
ReplyDeleteYour skies are a wonder to behold, as is your new header, it is worth coming over just to see the header, let alone the wonders from your camera. Breathtaking skies, especially the last three. The last one is like odd sea creatures swimming at speed.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend with lots more glorious skywatching from the roofgarden.
I definitely enjoyed these! Happy SWF!
ReplyDeleteGreat header shot again. :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous skies.
I've been distant this week, but I could not miss your Friday skies, sweet friend. I do not know which is better: the sky shots or your quotes, both wonderful!
