Photo challenge :: Up above
What will the sky hold for your neighbourhood today? Yesterday was a confusing mix in our part of the world – alternating beautiful blue skies and absolute downpours of grey all day, like the sky couldn’t come to an agreement. Maybe today will be safer for taking a camera perhaps!
Your photo challenge is to take a photo of the sky. How you do that is entirely up to you – clouds and birds might appear or you might prefer the meteor shower!
Upload your photo to your blog or an online gallery and leave a link in the comments below. One randomly chosen entry will win a prize pack of photo papers (winner can specify their preferred brand so it will be a good match for your printer).
I’ll cross my fingers that the sky is beautiful but camera-safe for you!

We’ve had grey skies here, but we did have a clear sky to watch the meteors, so it’s a night sky from me…

Not a cloud in the sky yesterday with temps climbing in the upper 30’s C so I stuck a tree in there for perspective.

Hope no-one messed up their eyes with this challenge! Got totally carried away and am now starting a new blog called ‘sky photos’. or something. Great idea and something I must do more often. Thanks shim.
