Skywatch Friday #7

I am but mad north-north-west: when the wind
is southerly I know a hawk from a handsaw.

– William Shakespeare (Hamlet) –

After being deluged with wind and rain this week, I was mighty glad to catch a glimpse of the sky peeking through the clouds.

    This is my favourite style of SWF image: using an interesting sky as a backdrop tro say something about man and nature. Really good silhouette of a most complicated weather vane.

    The entire post is so succinctly summed up by the quote from Shakespeare.

    Intelligent blogging …

    That is a really magnificent looking weathervane. The weather wasn´t probably getting any better considering the direction of the wind. Shakespeare makes good quotes.

    I so love the dark outline of the weather vane against a bright blue sky puffed with white pockets! Just gorgeous!

  13. This is a lovely skywatch! I really like the perspective as you look through that gorgeous weathervane to the blue sky beyond!
