Sky Watch #66

If you were with me all week you may have noticed that I have been featuring cloud/skyscape. I raided my archives and realized I had quite a few of these images that I haven't featured yet. As a change from the norm, I am showing you four. Enjoy!

This took my breath away. I was walking out of Fry's Electronics to Starbucks around 6 pm when I looked up and voila, this greeted me. Thankfully I had my point and shoot with me. Taken October 17, 2009.
We were on a house-hunting trip November 3, 2008. I was more interested in checking out the clouds than I was in looking at another house. I was really tired of looking at houses in November of last year. You can understand my attitude after house hunting since March 2008. It was a long process to get a house.
If there was one skywatch cum drive by shot that I truly truly love, this is it. This image just spoke to me. Taken along Highway 29 in between Vallejo and Napa, October 4, 2008.
This was taken on the same trip as photo 3. This was at a backroad somewhere in Napa Valley.

  16. A lovely collection of clouds! The first two are amazing - so luxuriant, somehow! But my favourite is the one you like best too - number three. I love that colour combination, and your composition is great.
