If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll have seen the beautiful blue sky we had the other morning. If not, scroll down the page a ways and look for it in the sidebar.
Go on – I’ll wait. 🙂
I took that picture on my way to work. I’d stopped to get gas and while I was filling up, I happened to notice the sky. But the beauty didn’t stop there:



I took these on my way to lunch that very same noon. I love how the clouds just feathered out at the ends, almost as if they were oil and the sky water. Except I suppose oil really doesn’t do that in water, does it? Well then, it’s almost like the clouds are smoke that’s just fading away…
Okay, that’s not a very good comparison, either. But I’m still recovering from strep, so, uh…And it’s Friday…
Anyway, I just love how these pictures turned out. The colors are spectacular, the clouds are gorgeous, and I could stare at them all day long. 🙂

They look like cirro cumulus (high level) clouds and they are beautiful.

Yeah, they are. There was another gorgeous one this afternoon that looked like a huge feather spread out over the square. It’s a shame I didn’t have my camera on me at the time. 😦

I have always been a fan of really blue skies and fluffy clouds. As a child, I could spend hours laying in the grass and looking for “pictures” in the clouds. I attribute that pastime with developing a very vivid imagination that bolsters my artistic heart. Now that I am entering the phase of my life that encourages second childhood dreams I think I’ll be spending some time gazing at the clouds provided I find someone willing to help me up.

Me, too! I have countless pictures of big fluffy clouds from a couple summers ago – we went camping quite a bit that summer, and I mentioned something to my husband about having taken something like a thousand pictures in two months, and he said, “And I bet half of them were of clouds.” But they’re just so pretty!
I don’t remember spending a lot of time watching the clouds go by as a kid, and I don’t really do much of it now, but I do love to watch them float across the sky on bright summer days. It’s a wonderful way to relax and unwind. 🙂

Indeed! I used to take inspiration from the sky when I was little for games at recess. Good times. 🙂
