SkyWatch Friday

I had so much fun participating in SkyWatch Friday for the first time last week. It was great looking at all of the beautiful blogs and the fantastic pictures people chose to share. This is such a wonderful concept and I am so pleased to be a part of it. There are two pictures I would like to share this week. The first one was taken earlier this evening outside of my friends home. I love palm trees and I just love the way they look against the beautiful evening sky.




Let your imagination soar. Can you see the dragon in the clouds of this next picture? He looks pretty intense to me!!



Happy SkyWatch Friday! Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoyed! Until we meet again . . .

    I've always thought that palm trees were so neat. Very different from our oaks, elms and cottonwoods!

    Glad you could join us at Sky Watch.

    Thanks for coming by to visit. I just started SWF last week too. Love that palm tree shot. Used to be you were told to shoot with the sun at your back but it's so much more interesting to look at all angles now. You have a very cool set up for your blog and your pupster is a cutie.

    Joyce: That was a dragon with some monster coming down to take a bite at his head. Please post larger photos so we can see the beauty of the shots.

    It's so cool to imagine stuff into the clouds. I used to do that until weather took over my life... I have to force myself to see images in the scud and cumulus... instead of rain potential, severe potential, etc.
