Sea view of Oslo, rain-clouds.

Clouded Yellow : Colias croceus

Best seen bigger. I just love the sky! (In general - not just this one!)

For once it was possible to pull over off the road to take a few photographs of this feathery early morning sky. So often frustrated by not being able to do so when some sight or another begs to be photographed:)

Gorgeous light at the beach today on the shortest day

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.

---Rabindranath Tagore---

‘Beware the Blackthorn Winter’ is a country saying about a spell of cold weather in early April which often coincides with the blossoming of the blackthorn (Prunus Spinosa). The pure white of the blackthorn blossom matches the snow or hoar frost covering the fields nearby and almost invariably bitter north easterly winds. The longer days and sun gaining strength at this time of year often give a spell of warmer weather - but then the Blackthorn Winter comes along and reminds us it’s not quite summer yet. Statistically, we are more likely to have snow at Easter than at Christmas.

A Blackthorn Winter can be described as the opposite of an Indian summer.

Blackthorn white blossoms appear before the leaves, creating a contrast against the dark smooth thorny branches. The blackthorn flowers eventually become purple sloes, ripening in autumn and harvested traditionally in October or November, after the first frosts, and used to make a Sloe gin liqueur.

Magnificent Monday to you my friend.

Standing higher hill to watching clouds

Put some foreground visible silhouette

Use grasses or trees for framing perspective

 

Another look at that awesome cloud now seen floating over and reflecting into the waters of the Chesapeake Bay. We first saw it while on Tangier Island. This time we were on the ferry boat ride back to Reedsville and some more back road riding. Due to the times of the ferry boat rides, you only have two hours on the island, but that's OK because it's not a very big island and it's a working island so not too much to see!

Clouds Rolling Over Moel Eilio North Wales!

Had a night in the Peak District at the weekend. Not much time for photography though, and weather wasnt the best. This is about the only bit of light that happened!

台風接近中だったある日の夕焼けです。

Sunrise in Milan - italy

Multi-layer clouds with lenticulars dominating the horizon.

Would you like to come cloud watching with me?

We can while away the afternoon

Just to step out of time is all we need

Looking out for the other rule

 

Cos there’s no place

I’d rather be

There’s no one

I’d rather see

 

Would you like to come cloud watching with me?

We can watch the world roll on by

Dreaming up all the endless possibilities

Staring into the open sky

 

Would you like to come cloud watching with me?

We don’t have to talk at all

If we lie on our backs in the green green grass

I guarantee there’s no way to fall

 

Cos there’s no place

I’d rather be

And there’s no one

I’d rather see

 

And together watch the blues get blown away

Cos there are so many clouds in the sky today
