SkyWatch ~ Bright, Victoria


It seems that Blogger has swallowed this post whole during
yesterday's interruption of service, so I am at least restoring
the pictures I had posted from our enforced stay in this lovely






They all enlarge of course, and thank you SkyWatch Team for
this heavenly meme.

    These are really good. The colouring is romantic, sort of Wuthering Heights sort of romantic.

    Sometimes a change in plans works out for the best but you can have the snow. Which it did again on the North Rim of the canyon, but I missed it. Will be there today, God willing.

    Thanks for the update you traveling gal.

    I love the first shot! It's no hardship at all to be stuck in such a beautiful place while your car troubles are tended to.

    Cognac, tulips and fabulous skies sounds like a great adventure

    Always fun to watch the way the sky changes its tone across a short space of time

    Wonderful dramatic picture of Bright Victoria, well done. It certainly is a great place to take some real nature photos. Better still when you are on holidays and relaxing.
