As the summer continues to heat up I often find myself on "sky watch". Searching for a dark cloud, an overcast sky, or the blue mist that never seems to reach the ground. What does sky look like this time of year above your home?

I really love the light music staff texture on the windmill shot. Great stuff.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful shots and wonderful texturing! Our sky looks pretty stormy every afternoon this time of year...and now with Isaac rolling in we are getting rain almost 24/7.
ReplyDeleteWow, I hope you've got a chance to capture a few stormy skies!
DeleteI love the windmill silhouette. I love all of your photos, actually.
ReplyDeleteThank Kim, silhouettes are always fun for structures with a lot of lines

I have to say I have lived on a ranch and a farm with a windmill. It's a nice welcome home to see from the distance.
DeleteJust a quick note to let you know that starting tomorrow, I will begin hosting a new photo meme on my blog. Please come join me at "Orange You Glad It's Friday", and post a photo displaying a little or a lot of orange, my favorite color! Hope to see you there!
ReplyDeleteI love to watch how the sky changes day to day. I think my boys are tired of my telling them how amazing the sky is every day! Love your windmill. My father in law loves windmills and has a big collection of photos of every one he's found. There really aren't any around here except for the small one in his yard!
ReplyDeleteThat is so neat Deb! I wonder what you father would think of this all texture out?
DeleteThese are beautiful, I love the texture :) thanks for sharing on Shoot.Edit.Submit!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love the windmill.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteTwo very lovely photos Kristy!! I love the windmill and the texture you applied adds such a sense of moodiness to the photos.
ReplyDeleteLuv your photos and their special backgrounds! I like to find contrails in the sky that look like tic-tac-toes...they are hard to find♫♪
ReplyDeleteWe've been having a lot of storms lately and tonight had a double rainbow...beautiful!
ReplyDeleteVisiting via Rural Thursday Blog Hop.
Oh that sounds so great, we have 30% chance of scattered storms today. I'm keeping my eyes to the sky and my fingers crossed.
DeleteVery pretty cupola Kristy. Thank you for sharing at Rural Thursdays.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos!! Love your place, too! So grateful I stopped by! In Wyoming we are hot, dry and windy. :) Praying for rain for both of us.
ReplyDeleteI love the windmill with the texture, so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWe have had rain all of July and August,and now expecting a hurricane. So it's been gloomy skies.
