Beach Sky Beauty

In January I visited Gleneden Beach in Oregon.  The weather was glorious.  Above is a triangle cloud I captured, lingering over the ocean.

It hung over the sea for the longest time.  I stayed until the cloud turned into a fat little man who seemed to wave when I smiled at him.

Mysterious Untouched Photo -Skywatch Friday

I have posted this one before.  It is one of my all-time favorites.  Do you see the triangle?  And the circle in the middle of it?  Other than leveling the photo for color, I have not altered the cloud in any way. 

I hope you have a wonderful week.  There is lots of interesting weather happening right now. Eyes to the skies!

I have found a meme I love.  Skywatch Friday--if you love clouds as much as I do--join us to see all the amazing things to be found by looking up.

Getting Geometric

 I've been away from this blog for a time--but I have growing a collection of geometric clouds which must be shared.  Above is a triangle cloud I caught over the back fence.

Here you can see three oval clouds next to a triangle tree top!

I see lots and lots of squares in the clouds.  It seems so odd to see a square amidst normally smooth and fluffy clouds.  I'll post some of my better pictures of cloud squares at a later time.

Round clouds such as you see above and round spaces in the clouds are more common than you might think.  I just love this fluffy circle cloud!

Last you will see a rectangle cloud. This is a rare capture.  I caught this from the window of the van, as we were traveling.

Have a lovely Christmas everyone! 

Heart in Triangle -Guest Heart Thursday

Here is another wonderful triangle cloud at sunset, shot from my back yard.  As you can see--on the left hand point of the triangle, there is a purple heart.

Triangles in the Sky

This is a triangle cloud I caught from over the back fence last weekend.  What a beauty!

This one looks like a piece of rick rack, or perhaps like the letter "M". I captured this cloud on the other side of the sky from the back yard. I apologize for being out of touch this summer. It has been a very hard three months for me and for my family. I hope to be more consistent with posting now that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Best blessings to all of you who look upward.

Heart in Sunset - Pink Saturday

The colors to be found in clouds at sunset and sunrise are amazing to me.  Here is a sunset photo filled with pinks, purples, blue and gold.  If you look closely--you can see a triangle softly imbedded in the clouds. 

Have a beautiful day--may your lives be filled with color and wonder.

The Shining

I love the way you can see the sun shining through those clouds.  If you look closely toward the bottom left, you can clearly see a dark triangle hanging there.  I'm always amazed at what can be found in the clouds.  Especially the straight line of such things as this triangle!

Sideways Triangle Cloud

I caught this intriguing triangle cloud on our trip through Oregon's great Columbia  Gorge this last Spring.  I am continually astonished by the frequent appearance of various angles and shapes which appear in the skies above us.

The Edge of Thunder

As we drove home through the Oregon's great Columbia Gorge, a thickening thunderstorm followed along.  Wind whipped the air. Hail pelted the windows and lightning flashed overhead.  Then quite suddenly, we were out and away--into the sunshine.

Looking back at the storm, I caught this interesting triangle cloud on The Edge of Thunder.

Early Morning Angles

What an astonishing picture to see--just before the sun came up, I caught this large triangle shaped opening in the sky.  There is another smaller triangle in the cloud. 

If  you have a great imagination you can see the left hand side of the triangle is the profile of a lovely woman.

Triangle Over the Moon

When my husband and I were at the beach this last January, the first morning, I awoke before the sun and was so excited to catch the moon reflecting from the waves. 

The next morning, I awoke early once more and once again, I caught the moon over the water. When I went over the photos later that day, I was astounded to find a triangle over the moon.  Can you see it?

Triangle over Columbia Gorge

We were on our way home from a performance in the Columbia Gorge when I spotted this triangle in the skies over the Gorge.  There was a storm sweeping in from the west.  It was fast-moving, so I was only able to capture two pictures of this interesting cloud.   I shot the picture through the windshield of our old van.

Have a great weekend!
