Sky Watch Friday

I hope you'll forgive this 'old' picture but I haven't been feeling too good of late and so haven't been able to get out to snap something new.



Anyway - this was the sky behind Guisborough Priory last Saturday afternoon. As you can see - it was a fairly grey day. Almost as ashen as my face after this little episode yesterday!!!


For far more interesting sky watch pictures please visit Tom at Wiggers World.

These are very dramatic. The doorway is like the mouth of a large, angry creature--the the original intent, back in the day, I'd say! Great stuff.

I'm so sorry to hear about your Crones. I have a friend whose son has had Crones for many years and I know how bad it is. I hope you can hit the right medication so you can feel comfortable.

Something so calming about those grey skies. I do hope you are on the mend. Many friends with Crohn's and colitis...so I'm keeping you in my thoughts.

Beautiful surreal and kinda spooky photo.


Do hope you feel better soon!
I have a dear friend with Crohn's disease - for the last 10 years - and she goes through awful periods, too. I always feel so bad for her when it happens. Hope BOTH of you are cured soon!

Lovely SWF!

We had our wedding photographs taken in these grounds, gosh, 20 years ago! Time flies when you are having fun!

Hope you are feeling better.

Lots of details in those ruins that makes for an interesting composition. Hope you're feeling much better soon.
