Skyday #3


Here are 6 of the last 7 days of the sky. Even the blue has gone more to gray. Those bright clear days of October are over. It's odd how the tones from the top to bottom panes matched up. Just chance.


November 13- a nice clear day, and I think I did some outside work.

November 14- overcast but mild. I did trail work.
gray sky


November 15- still mild but not much sun

November 16-Changeable skies. Blue, black, white, everything in between.

November 17- Pleasant for November, but ended with a little snow- all gove now

November 19- cold! But not bad.

Are you liking these? I like the tiles, but can't seem to think of much to say about them.

I didn't move around enough today. Sat at the computer too much. That will change tomorrow.

Skyday #1


I'm going to start an occasional feature called Skyday. I've taken a shot of the sky each of the last seven days and I picked 6 of them to feature. They are arranged in chronological order from top left to bottom right, not necessarily in the most artistic positions.

This is mostly because I'm kind of fascinated by tile mosaics made up of images with similar color tones. Some don't have any relationship to each other, some do. But I thought I'd see what happened with a few of these sky mosaics. Winter in Michigan is often constantly gray... but we'll see what happens.

This is October 16-22 (seven doesn't make a balanced arrangement, and I forgot one day anyway.

Then I'll show you the entire picture for each day.

October 16- clear blue perfect October day.

October 18- partly cloudy, mostly high, thin clouds

October 19- rain all day


October 20- mostly clear with some puffy clouds on the horizon- the day Om and I went on the color tour.

October 21- quite a lot of rain, but not solid gray- the clouds were changing constantly

October 22- today. They predicted rain, but it was really only partly cloudy. I even went for a short walk.

I buckled down and spent my time quota on all the usual projects. Walked down through the cemetery and back.
