Skywatch Friday Assen 4 out of 5



Somewhere still in the North Sea
June 29th 2008





Leaving the wonderful rainbow and UFO's in the dining room (yes, that was a good drink I had! LOL) this was the sky I had been studying before the distraction...

quite a perfect end to my birthday I thought!

(I haven't edited these pictures...this was just as it was!)

I often look at the sky and think of everybody participating in Skywatch Friday. Just as it is approaching 7pm here and we will soon be having dinner, some of you will be just getting ready for the day, others will still be asleep.

What's your sky doing right now?

Ours is grey and it is raining, feels like thunder!

A couple of verses from a well known hymn sprung to mind!

Happy Skywatch Friday!


As o’er each continent and island
The dawn leads on another day,
The voice of prayer is never silent,
Nor dies the strain of praise away.

The sun that bids us rest is waking Our brethren ’neath the western sky, And hour by hour fresh lips are making Thy wondrous doings heard on high

John Ellerton

Beautiful to watch, but I think I would prefer that it disappeared somewhere over the North Sea...

Denise: That is a very scary Sky, it reminds me of an alien movie.

Ellyn said...

Loved it. Sky and water go so well together.

VaQueenBee said...

What wonderful pictures! The 2nd is my favorite, but all are beautiful!

The skies are gray and overcast here, too.

looks like alien spaceship might just pop out of the clouds any minute, they're quite a visual stunner

Beautiful photos, Mrs. N., and an even more lovely poem. Thanks! Lovely Sky Watch.

Dragonstar said...

These are almost incredible skies Denise. When you can find natural skies like that, there's no need to adapt.

CherryPie said...

It is blowing up a storm here, I have just had to shut the window for fear of breakages...

Barbara said...

Beautiful skies from the North Sea, the sky here is very cloudy and its raining!

Cath said...

Those shots are just fantastic. It looks like the cloud will squash you! Or drop its load very suddenly...!

Love that 2nd shot... stellar!

Our skies here are usually quite overcast. Caught a lucky break today... virtually crystal clear.

The first photo was quite eerie in a way - it made me think of Mars!

Have a wonderful weekend of beautiful skies!

Maria said...

Have a great weekend

Country Girl said...

This is my first visit to your site. These photos are breathtaking! I love travelling around the world with all the SkyWatch people!

ChrisJ said...

Yup! That's the North Sea all right. I'd recognize it anywhere! We're thinking of doing the Norwegian Fjords for our 50th anniversary next year. But the north of the North See has me wondering a bit!

Love that phrase "faffing about". No one know what it means where I live.

As for the hymn, it is years since I've heard that sung. "The day Thou gavest, Lord has ended..."

chanpheng said...

Intense skies. Thanks for posting.

My SWF is here, a collection of sky photos over the past week.

Kathie Brown said...

With those first couple of photos it looks almost as if the world is turned upside down! I like them all and I like the hymn you put with them.

Brenda said...

Beautiful sky and sea!

SandyCarlson said...

Happy birthday, Denise! Those are some beautiful skies.

Raven said...

Beautiful skies and verse. I'll echo Sandy's birthday wish. I didn't see anything about your birthday, but Sandy is usually very wise.
