Sky Watch Friday!

There is not a particle of life which does not bear poetry within it.   Gustave Flaubert

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!

It was only a sunny smile, and little it cost in the giving, but like morning light it scattered the night and made the day worth living.  F. Scott Fitzgerald
As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.
 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

  2. Lovely to see the clouds with their white lining just above the trees. Can you believe it's almost the weekend again Sylvia, it's a little scary the way time is flying by.

  3. As ever I enjoy the colourful photos of your skies! Thanks for your visit. I added the song of Pete Seeger which was sung today by a great Norwegian crowd outside the prison where Anders Breivik is, as a protest to what he has done.
    Have a wonderful SWF!

  19. Lovely shots and amazing quotes. What a contrast in quoters. Flaubert never left his mother's side and Goethe was the most versatile self confident person of his generation.
