SkyWatch *13 Diurnal Delights

Click on any photo to enlarge for best effect.

Gently the dawn awakens sleeping world



with unimagined splendour bursting forth



with gentle tones in noon day's heat



to hide it's light behind some other hill



till once more moonlit earth is still

  2. So beautiful your SWF-photos are today:) I cant find any favorite;) Here where I live the sun will soon go away. So you are lucky that you are able to take such beautiful photos:)

    My frost is not so big as it can look at my photos. I use macro and close up to the frost. It's very fun:)

  8. I always leave your blog inspired.... the beauty of nature that sorrounds you amazes me....

    I was looking for your email to send you our little "Hopeful Friday" logo, but couldn't find one... I usually allow copying from my blog on fridays, so participants who want to copy and paste the Hopeful Friday logo can do so... I have to add some codes on my blog after my "Hopeful Friday" post, as I found out some people were copying my pics, and even my words, without permission... you are welcome to come by on friday and copy our logo... see you then.

  25. Hallo Arija,
    wie wunderbar, dass wir die gleiche Idee für SWF verwirklichen, der Himmel im Verlauf des Tages.
    Ich kann mich wieder nicht entscheiden welche der Aufnahmen mein Favourit ist, drei oder vier, eben alle zauberhaft.
    Liebe Grüsse Hartmut

  46. Hi Arija, as I was scrolling down I got to the full moon and my mind thought, "bear", so I scrolled back up and realized one of the bare tress on the left looked like a walking bear. All the pictures are beautifully shot and I love the writing as well.
