SkyWatch Friday: One Day of Sky Watching


December 27 had just about everything in terms of sky watching.

For the first half of the day it was a hard pouring down rain.

About mid day a cold front came roaring in and the sun came out.

The wind was blowing hard and a steady stream of clouds streaked across the sky.

Being someone who likes variety, I couldn't have asked for more from the sky show.

When the sun started setting there were so many variation as the wind continued to blow clouds across the sky.

I love the way clouds look with a lot of color variations.

It is as if someone was painting on the sky.

I hope everyone has a wonderful year ahead with lots of beautiful variations in the sky they view.

    Nice contrasting shots, Carver! I like the silver shimmer of the first photo. Changing skies from hour to hour are also typical in my BC world. So it is never really dull, even though it is sometimes very gray. :)
