April Skies

On our Saturday hike the skies were just stunning.  A bright sunny day, with clear blue skies from horizon to horizon.  I enjoy the Skywatch Friday meme, where you can see skies from around the world every Friday.  And I prefer to take pictures that don't merely show the sky as a backdrop, but where the sky itself is the highlight.  So here are a few shots of our April skies.

As you can see, our world is still basically brown, though the evergreen plantations add some green.  Compared to blogs I read from the southern U.S. or the west coast, our seasons are very late!

    Breathtaking and beautiful. Comparing our spring to southern climates, it does seem to take forever!

    Our Spring is very late indeed. Hard to imagine a month from now we'll have apple blossoms & dandelions. Yes the sky is always a marvelous place to lose oneself in thought.

    Good idea to include landscape. I notice the trees have lost their leaves.

    Those are beautiful skies!
    We Southerners pay for our early Spring with Summers so hot the intense heat will suck the breath out of you. Come July you will hear us moaning and groaning!
    Have a wonderful week-end!
