We have been most fortunate these last couple of weeks as we have had lots of sun. This isn't normal for us as it is usually overcast and snowing. We have gotten lots of snow but for the last couple of weeks it has been down to just a small skiff per day... During the winter the sky even seems bluer then during the summer, I am not sure why that is. Is it because of the blue against the white of the snow it seems more brilliant? Or is it just because we don't see it that often that we are amazed by the colour? It doesn't matter ~ the sky is blue and it is wonderful.
The sun always shines above the clouds.

Every cloud has a silver lining.
Proverb
A cloud does not know why it moves in just such a direction and at such a speed. It feels an impulsion.. this is the place to go now. But the sky knows the reasons and the patterns behind all clouds, and you will know, too when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons.

There's nothing like blue skies and fluffy clouds on a sunny day to give one a big happy.
ReplyDeleteI've just popped over from Sunlit Sunday. It's so lovely to see your blue skies. Our clouds have been racing across the sky so quickly so it is lovely to see them stop and the sun come out, even for a brief moment! Have a wonderful weekend. xx
ReplyDeleteLovely presentation of your photos. I'm visiting from Sunlit Sunday.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of the sun shining above the clouds, and even though the weather is grey, the promise of the suns return is palpable.

I know what you mean about the blue skies seeming brighter in the wintertime, Marlys. Whatever the reason, it's nice to have that colour in a primarily white landscape. After looking at your cloud-appreciate photos, I have Joni Mitchell's song playing in my head:
ReplyDeleteBows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
Have a lovely Sunday.

I think we all have a little mix in our genes. Nice photos of the clouds.
ReplyDeleteLovely sky captures. I like the little cloud puffs!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely set of images. Blue skies in the winter do seem a deeper blue - is it because all the precipitation washes away some of the pollution? I don't know, but I'll enjoy the colour.
ReplyDeleteI love to skywatch, the blue sky and puffy white clouds are beautiful. Lovely images and mosaic! Enjoy your week ahead!
ReplyDeleteBlue sky has such meaning - optimism, hope, joy........love it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scenery and fluffy clouds! Wonderful photos!
ReplyDeleteI know blue skies in winter do seem brighter. I'm guessing it's because we just don't see them that much so we appreciate them more when we do. No blue skies here today though.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post! Lovely photos. Warm greetings from Montreal, Canada.
ReplyDeleteVisiting from Let's Mingle Monday Social Link Party ... Amen for the blue skies and sunshine .... it helps us get through all this SNOW in Michigan this year!! LoL
ReplyDeleteI always find it mysterious when the sun shines above the clouds
