SkyWatch Friday - August closing

There is a perceptible shortening of the days 
as we head into September, 
so it is lovely to actually be awake to witness the sun rising.  
A couple of very different gifts this week.

    Are these taken from your deck? We have a short little house and I can't get a sunrise or a sunset without wires in it.
    These are beautiful and, yes, so different from one another.

    Hi Kay - yes taken from my back door - don't think I even ventured onto the deck as I was still in my PJ's! LOL

    The days are certainly shortening and cooling but a sunrise is always a gift, at any time of the year:-)

    Gorgeous! It's lovely to see the dawn again now that the sun is rising later and later.. but still pretty early!

    Such beautiful skies -at least you can see them-in your PJ's : -as I have to travel to see a horizon, since I live in the middle of the city. Happy weekend!

    I know what you mean about it being nice to see the sunrises again! I sometimes think about getting up earlier in the summer, but that seems too much like work! Love your skies!
