Wednesday morning was unusually pretty. When I first looked out, the sky was deep blue, banded with orange-red across the horizon. Very quickly, though—within minutes—the sky bloomed into a beautiful pastel mix.
May all of you SkyWatch participants, as well as those who just come to look, have a 2010 full of beautiful skies.
Go to SkyWatch Friday and find skies from all over the world. While you’re there, why not leave a link to your own skies so all can enjoy? Many thanks to Klaus, Sandy, Wren, Fishing Guy, Louise and Sylvia for hosting this most ethereal meme!

Oh my gosh, what a way to end the year. I love skies like this and whenever I see one I know I have to act fast. It’s so amazing how quickly they can change. The beauty is so fleeting.
Happy new year, Holly!

Hi Erin and thanks so much…glad you liked it. I hope you have as equally a nice 2010!

Hi, PM and thanks. I kinda liked them, too. It seems like the colors around here are somewhat limited. I’m probably just not up early enough!
*
Thanks so much, John. Hee-hee…GET UP EARLY! (You can always hop back into bed!)
*
Hi, ann, and thank you. May you and Duke also have a happy and healthy New Year.
*
Hi, Kathy, and yes, it does change quickly. I rarely see this mix of colors, then again, I’m not usually up this early so…who knows what’s usually out there!
*
Hi Lana and thanks so much…a very Happy New Year to you and Charles, too!
*
Hi Rebecca. Thanks so much and I’m glad you like it…hope your daughter does, too.
That is incredibly pretty! Gotta love a rainbow sky like that :)

Thanks, Svasti. Glad you like it. I don’t often catch a sky like this, so I’m glad I was up earlier than usual.
