Great sky, nice. How do you the frame around the picture? Have a nice weekend.

Leora said...

My daughter tells me I'm always saying "look at ...." - if I saw that sky, I would be telling her to look, too. We would both be winged creatures together.

Carletta: What a beautiful portrait of the sky. That looks a lot like my January sky. A half hour after I took the photos the sky turned all gray.

I've thought that myself at times; wishing I could magically grab ahold of a cloud and take off.
This is a gorgeous capture!
