Sky Watch Friday!

Time to share your skies, the beauty over your world, the clouds, the colors! Sky Watch is hosted each week by  the Sky Watch team of  Sandy and I. And this week as every week, we remember Klaus and know that he joins us in spirit! Join us and the many people from all over the world who share theirs with us each week! 
All seems to be well again and Sky Watch is up and running!

infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.     Oscar Wilde

horizon of a moment, too late to expose film, only time enough to expose our
hearts.

  1. Well, you have gone and done it again...more fabulous skies. I am wondering if you all get better skies on the west coast than we do. That first one is so beautiful and the quote is so lovely. I love looking up quotes and reading them. The third shot is another awesome one. I have never seen one so red as this. It’s unbelievable. All of them are pretty but these are my favorites. ps...we are coming to Seattle and B.Island in August. Bud and my son are going on a weeks hike on the Pacific Crest Trail and I am going to sit on B. Island and chill. Cannot wait. genie

    PS: Heard yesterday that another friend of mine was diagnosed with cancer... Hopefully he will be cured as it was an early diagnosis.

  12. I have to agree with Genie - I think you do have better skies there. They get washed out by the time they get here. :)

  14. You do have glorious skies!

    My dear, I have held you and your daughter in my daily prayers ever since and especially now. I sincerely hope it is successful.

    I too am worried about Sandy, it is so unlike her. I had not realised that you two were the last stalwarts to host this meme! You are so brave!

  16. Sylvia -- your skies are just fabulous (and pure Pacific Northwest).

    I was afraid something was wrong since the meme wasn't up when I checked in. I'm grateful to you and Sandy both for all you do -- hope everything is OK.

  50. I am so glad that SkyWatch came back up, I was missing it! The first image...is that a little cabin, or home in the bottom part? The lighting on it is really serene. The last sky image is as if the sky was lit up in flames, just amazing!
