Sky Watch - Sunrise

I am not up before the sun often these days, but last Saturday, I got these shots shortly after the sun climbed above the trees.

Sky Watch - Not all clouds

Blue above the column, February 3

Not all of our skies have been cloudy and filled with falling water of various types!

Sky Watch - Sunrises

I do not get up early very often since I retired, but on Tuesday and Wednesday I awoke as the sun was rising. In my last job, I was well on my way to the office when the sun peeked above the horizon. The first two images were taken on the 14-th and the last three on the 15-th. For another impressive sunrise, check this Sunrise Soltice at Stonehenge on the NASA APOD site.

Sky Watch - South Carolina skies

The skies in South Carolina last Saturday were clear. The first two shots were shortly after sunrise. The next two were mid-morning, and the last as the sun set with a golden glow in the sky.

Sky Watch - White sky and sunrise

The first 2 shots were taken last saturday during the second winter storm.

By late afternoon, the storm had passed and blue skies returned.

And Sunday morning dawned with the sun casting a golden glow over the snow.

Sepia sunrise

The first three shots were taken between 7:15 and 7:30 AM on November 15. They have not been altered except to resize for posting. The first was taken through our dining room window and the others out in the yard. (I posted another view of this on Lew's Pics.) The fog quickly dissipated, leaving blue sky and light clouds. The sunset was taken at 5:00 PM.

Sky Watch Friday - The morning after

Last Friday I posted the sunset of March 22. This week is the sunrise of March 23. I saw the moon in the dawn sky and went out to take a few shots. I then walked into the field for a clear view of the horizon where the sun would soon appear. There were contrails from the early morning flights that can be seen in some of these shots. And the last is a few to the southwest of the sun beginning to light the field.
