Brilliant Blue Skies

I am not saddened by a summer that has passed
when experiencing such brilliant blue skies!
I feel autumn among fields of corn under the bluest sky!
Travel among the autumn trails and be dazzled by
the beauty and the wonderful world that surrounds you!

Great photos for Sky Watch Friday and celebrating the change of seasons. Fall is my favorite time of year, it feels like another new years in terms of getting back to school and work routines. Hope you are having a lovely day.

I know what you mean about being saddened by a summer that never was. I feel much the same, and there is a definite feel of autumn about these photos - but they are beautiful. Autumn is a beautiful time of year!

Beautiful skies and I also love the old barn and the field.

I too like the crisper looking skies of bright fall days. We presently have hazy washed out ones in anticipation of rain.
Your images are lovely!

I'm so glad you enjoyed my Rays of Hope.
Take care.

Beautiful blue skies! And definitely a reminder of what we'll be missing come fall! Although, I have to admit that autumn is my favorite season, and here in the northwest we have lots of gorgeous colors to enjoy. But there comes a time when we all miss these lovely blue skies!

Great post and photos!

Enjoy your weekend1

I love gazing up at clear blue skies like that and imagine myself soaring like a bird. Thank you so much for the email updates, my dear friend, I have been praying so hard for you and will continue to do so. Holding you in a gentle hug and telling you to rest and let the autumn colours help you regain your energy:-) xoxo

It DOES feel like autumn now, doesn't it? We had such a short summer this year but I didn't miss it really as I prefer cooler temperatures.

Monica the Garden Faerie said...

Love the vibrant blue of the clouds and the texture and color contrast of the barn. The quote is so true--our reality is totally filtered through our experience and perceptions!

I love sky shots! The clouds were probably letting you know that the blue sky is still there, even if you can't see it.
