Spectacular cloud shot with the shadow of the lower clouds imposed on the higher ones 😃
Thank you, Jez! I remember the sky looking spectacular on this particular evening, so different. Fortunately, the camera was close by.
Great images! Really connect with the challenge! My favourite is the image from St, Kitts.
Jazzibee, you certainly chose a fun photo challenge to work with!! So glad you like these pictures and especially St.Kitts, it is such a lovely island with a lot of interesting history. On another note, I apologize for such a late response to your comment, I was having a few issues with WP. Hopefully everything is resolved now (fingers crossed).
So many great images to choose from. I love the view from the 360 Restaurant. And interesting about the stupa.
Thank you, Donna, it was fascinating looking down from the restaurant windows. So many different sights plus everything appears as a miniature scene!
Beautiful selections, Sylvia! The sky in southern Maine is stunning. Beautiful travel photos.
Many thanks Amy! The sky there always seems to be so dramatic looking, very little smog and little humidity.
Terrific post Sylvia – one of my favorite of your many! All of the images are wonderful and meet the challenge perfectly.
Thank you, Tina, it was fun going back and revisit these places! Lots of memories. I apologize for such a delayed respondence. I was having issues with my blog and Hopefully they are esolved now😕.
