Sky Filled Moments From The Sun

Hi wonderful Friends and Visitors.
This is rather an exciting moment.
I've managed to arrive here intact, with connection still flowing.
Now the interesting part begins... I wonder how long this happening will last to complete this... by doing I'll discover. 

         Has been days since my internet connection was sufficiently speedy to enable me to even reach here, so the success in signing in and be actually doing this has been rather encouraging.

         This Posting is a jumble of moments happening with the Sky experiencing rather wonderful creative artistry from Sun's Light.
The moments are a collection of different mornings and evenings from June 2011 to recent.

         For me the images are like the Sun suddenly deciding to create a moment of magnificence amid the Sky, filling just one aspect with great distinctive beauty instead of a Sky filled with wonders in every direction.
        May you enjoy the images I have chosen. I know I feel good about presenting them... Oh, and don't forget the slide-show way... some are quite lovely, very lovely I discovered, and even more so I felt with having been achieved with my phone Vivaz.

        Beginning with a Sunset moment during early Winter on June 28 2011 at 5.07pm in Aussie Land. While I was on my way back from Town... late though I was, what was happening in the Western Sky I simply had to stop to witness and attempt to photograph the event.....


        The main aspect missing from that moment is how truly filled with lilacs and purples the changing Sky was showcasing... But I love the resulting photo even without that extra visual experience.

        Still in Winter 2011, but the next happening occurred at the close of day on July 18, 5.25pm. Again I was leaving Town late, this time due to chatting where I get meat for Tiffany Cat and Victoria Hen from when I saw what was happening to the Sky outside the Shop....


Still looks dramatic.

Do hope you will continue....
           
         Then with Spring on its way during September 2011, I witness a 6.03am awesome event on the 13th...


         The light was so intensely rich, I spun round to see what was happening in the other Directions... well the West responded with Foliage glowing.....


         Not quite spectacular, but I do feel the glowing foliage contrasts beautifully with the grey-blue of the Cloudy Sky.

         The following three photos are to me moments of achieving really beautiful photo results... The occasion was Spring's 2011 October 4th... the event began about 5.30am, was over by 6am.... and I groaned when I first saw the beginning of that morning.... I had not put my phone on charge as had intended... the battery was very low... and gosh I'm glad I gave-in and at least tried to record what was unfolding....




         Truly was a fantastic morning. Utterly pleased I was successful in having some of that wondrous event. Very proud of my phone that morning. Am intending to have the first and third printed. They'll look like paintings when printed into enlarged photos, which just might be extra nice.

         Still in Spring's 2011 October mornings...
this time the 17th at 5.47am...


         And then on the 26th at 5.15am...


         Two months along.... December 30th 2011 and a Summer evening closed the day letting the East tell the Story for the next two moments of 6.45 and 6.46pm....



         Still during Summer, but we've begun 2012 and a Sunset moment of January 1st at 6.58pm occurs.... nice finishing touch to close a New Year's beginning....


         From now we are more into the present... March 2012... Autumn in Australia is on its way.... and there has been a continual flowing of rain... actually, most of Eastern Australia has been experiencing plunging into flooding waters with continuous rain throughout this Summer Season.
         I type lightheartedly, yet there has been floods where Folk have not known floods to happen, with heartwrenching losses of personal irreplaceable possessions, their homes quite ruined, businesses a mess, and a lot of infrastructure in need of repair to be safe for motor traffic and train travel.

         Though Australia needs the rain with having been in drought for about 10yrs, it is just a pity that for the waters to reach the areas Inland where needed, major flooding occurs within the Settled Urban areas.
         But unfortunately, they are the pathways for flooding waters to travel from the Coastal Rivers to the Natural Inland Water Catchments to be found on land and underground.
         Inland Australia depends on these huge floods. Huge floods indicates there will be sufficient water to travel the distance, and have enough left over to give to the driest regions.
         Australia is a vast and beautiful country. One which abounds in arid, temperate and tropical climates. It is always a phenomena when on the same day the news will inform about Folks on the East struggling with floods, while those in the West are struggling with Bush Fires.
         The wonder, beauty and challenges of Australia's Land.

         Well I did divert, but I will conclude that this time round my area of Queensland fared well, only a little flooding occurred, and today as I'm doing this, is the first Sunny day in about 2weeks of daily and nightly rain, maybe why too I am not having a lot of difficulty in achieving this Post.
         Am actually surprised at how quickly this is coming together. It's lovely to experience.

         Back to photos....
March 11, 2012, and it's 5.53 then 5.54am for that morning's glow which I first see happening amid the North West Sky as I walk outside....


         Then I look to the East to see why that morning's wonder was occurring North West....


         How's that for exquisite calm? And that little bit of fluff looking stuff up there in the Sky all by its self is Cloud.

         To conclude...
Two photos of William and Pip.
         They are in the vicinity of 4mths old now. They alert me to Sky moments I might like, and enjoy accompanying me round the yard as I do the photos. It has become routine that I include them at the end of a photo event. William is in the foreground.....



         Well I am quite awed. I not only have accomplished this Posting in creating it, but I'm even ready to Publish it. Astonishingly wonderful.
         Haven't had this much ease to Post, Publish, or even be travelling about cyberspace for a few months. Since February 2012 it had increasingly become awful to even venture out.
         I feel quite uplifted by today's result.
         Thanks for stopping by.
         If this continues I'll be able to travel and type hello to you too.

    1. Hi Laura...
      I too am pleased with the results of these Sky Moments, and that first one was a truly magnificent moment. I feel what I failed in being able to record was compensated for by the Village effect setting and especially that beautiful Tree's shape.
      Mmmm, didn't expect I would have become their Mum so soon, but we are doing well, and I'm glad they are finding joy each day... thank you for those kind words, because I do feel sometimes a little overwhelmed with what is now my new Journey with them.
      Oh Laura I really don't believe I shine all that well, but gosh they are words for me to embrace, thanks xxx

    1. Oh Red, your wondrous energy is present... thanks...
      and oh yes, I think that 5.45 4th Oct 2011 is my favourite too... am truly looking forward to seeing it as an enlarged photo print.
      I think my internet connection will be sporadic until the Towers are upgraded... but it will be a pleasure when I can freely connect again... it is more disappointing I'm finding than enraging... but did become thoroughly frustrating and worrying when I became suspended in cyberspace unable to sign-out. The knowledge means I only attempt any sign-ins if I seem to be connecting and moving about efficiently, and leave as soon as I notice a slowing down occurring.
      Thanks for being here Red... always appreciated.

    1. Hello Beach Bum,
      Oh I do feel after a night at work, no matter how tired and ready for bed one is, if managing to see the Sun awakening a new day is a truly peaceful, restful, unwinding experience I believe.
      Do hope you have those moments before sleep sets in... you do so deserve the beauty a Sunrise gives to refuel and enrich the creative activity flowing in your mind.
      Thanks for visiting Beach Bum.

  5. Hopefully you haven't received my responses again. Apologies if does happen. I've changed my Comment form to the Embedded version. I like the option to directly reply to someone who has left their input, feels more personal. Then me being me, is now working my way through my Posts to re-place my responses into the Reply section. So some copying, pasting and deleting is happening.
