Sky Watch Friday: my Sunday sky


The photos for my SkyWatch Friday were taken last Sunday afternoon from my patio. It drizzled at noon, then it was hot and humid in the afternoon. I placed the “beach” chair at the patio after lunch to catch some breezes and read the papers. Around 3 pm, while having a snack [of iced tea and maruya], I looked at the skies, and it was beautiful. Took these photos using my cel phone camera. It was a well-spent Sunday.



"When you realize how perfect everything is, you will tilt your head back and
laugh at the sky."

great thought of Buddha! Do you know that there are cloud formations called sylphs? They are daw actually angels. I am always in the look-out for them. And it's really fun!

Your clouds here we often see during the early morning! Gorgeous, 'no? :-D

I didn't know that sylphs are cloud formations. I thought they're fairies (or diwatas like us! Hahaha).

I used to think that skies can only be beautiful and interesting at sunrise and sunset...hindi pala!:D Thanks for droppin' by, Bernadette.

It seem a well spent afternoon for sky watching too! Because of skywatch I started to enjoy looking at the clouds trying to figure out what they form at times! Real fun...

When the sky is like that I just stare and wonder how it would look like tomorrow. Happy weekend!

Oooh, I love these photos of yours. The truth is I got interested in clouds only when I got interested in photography ... meaning, only this summer.

Good quote from Buddha, too!
