Consolation Skies

posted by FH2o


I broke one of my ‘cardinal’ rules today – “always carry a camera”; and missed the most glorious rainbow I had seen this year. I could have kicked myself.

But as I got home; the skies turned fiery red and the trees looked as if they were on fire and I rushed inside for my camera. As I snapped away, Simon my amused neighbour got home and he took a picture of me taking the sunset! Since he's not like Robin, I wonder what is he going to do with that photo. Hmm.

This is a small consolation to the glorious rainbow but we should gratefully receive all the small mercies that life may throw at us sometimes! I do; so enjoy these ‘small mercies’! Nice huh?

Wow! That is an intense sky!

Too bad about the rainbow, but you still managed to deliver with impact. Thanks for sharing!

Between the clouds and river reflection, I think I prefer the floating leaves. More colours more abstract.

Whether its rainbow, or clouds, they all say the same thing: "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth his handywork."

Nice. Every time I look at the morning and evening sky here, I wonder when I would see one as beautiful as this. Dragons, dolphins and fire! It seems they don't like the city so much.

I suspect Simon also keeps a blog and your amusing pictures and antics are sprayed all over it. Have you asked him?

agus - i had!
he actually 'confessed' that he has started a blog but is not willing to 'unveil' it yet until its up to *ahem* 'standard'! (whatever that means!)

i trust that I'm not a subject of his blog - strange neighbour's obsession with skies, kayaks n stuff ...

Simon may be better than me..

1. He will sell that pics to me.. and I will blog it or

2. He will blog it and put an obsence caption or

3. He will made poster and stick them on every alternate lamp-post (like me searching for Elmo.. someone commented that my poster are more than PAP) or

4. He will print it and stick it outside his toilet to ward off the evil or

5. He will throw dart at it when he is angry with you.

ok.,. I run out of ideas.

Wow! Fire in the sky but beautiful. Nature is a natural artist.

Thanks for sharing nature's splendour.

Simon may be doing a blog on 'Clouds' so you may have competition there or he could just be doing something on "My Crazy Cloud-watching Neighbour". haha!
