Lapsed Time (City): Nov-12 to Feb-13

This blog actually stemmed from my wish to take a photo of the same spot everyday, if only to see how a place can look the same, and yet look different each time. Of course, I started to notice a lot of other beautiful views so I got sidetracked, but I still do this sometimes.

(Pro-tip: Hover over the photos for date info.)











(I've also previously posted photos of this area before.)

Nephelococcygia: Transforming Lion

I see a lion here, up in the sky. It looks in the midst of its transformation, not unlike The Beast's.

My Sunrise and Nephelococcygia

This is my sunrise. (One of the clouds look like ice cream on a banana split.)

Green Grass Mornings

Inhale that fresh green grass scent, and get a headstart on the day. It's morning now.

Shattered Cloud

I somehow feel as if this cloud's been shattered.

Dainty, Feathery Brush Strokes

I learned a word during science class one day, a word I'd adore and remember for the rest of my life. It reminds me of dainty feathers and brush strokes. It pertains to "a genus of atmospheric clouds generally characterized by thin, wispy strands"*.

Cirrus.

Shadow Play

They look like shadow play, but they are just actually silhouettes against a smoky sky.

Breathe and Marvel

Breathe in that smoggy city air, and just marvel at your afternoon sky.

Peek-A-Boo and Nephelococcygia

Sometimes, the clouds want to play peek-a-boo with you. It rather looks like an eagle when you look carefully, doesn't it?

A Graceful Exit By The Sea

The wind in your hair, the sand beneath your feet, the smell of the ocean on your skin, and the sun making its graceful exit from your sky.

Nephelococcygia: Gummy Bear

Look at the clouds, and what do you see? I see a sitting bear, as gummy as can be. (He seems to have his arms stretched forward.) What do you see?

A Soft Sky

I define this sky as "soft". There seems to be no other way to describe it.

Freak Blue Streak

Because sometimes, Mother Nature just wants to mess with your head.

(But no, seriously. What is with that sudden blue streak? Granted it was raining, but still. Is it paving the bowling lane of the angels in the sky?)

In Plane Sight

I heard a noise coming from above, and saw a jet stream (maybe silver iodide or dry ice?). I don't normally get to see the vehicle that makes such a line in the sky, but I was lucky enough this time.

(Interestingly, after snapping the photo, I looked around to see people staring at the sky and seeing the plane too. Influential.)

Warm Fuzzy Sunlight

I've got the fuzzies, just looking at that view. Memories wash over me like waves. The sun still shines in the sky, reminding me of the ephemeral memories that will stay long with me - even after the sun sets, after the birthday party.

Yeah, this is a special one, all right.

There's life in the desert. It just passes you by really slowly.

Sunrise and Colors

Besides enjoying seeing the in itself sun rise, I also like looking at the states of color the sky, sun and entire environment goes through. It's so amazing how different shades of different colors show up in my spectrum in just a couple of minutes.

(This transitions post is actually related to this post.)

Get Up and Gaze

Today's a great day to gaze at clouds. Why not go out and do so?

Atmospheric Evenings

I love how games are turning out to be more and more atmospheric. Sometimes, I would allow my character to walk on their own, while I would gaze at the lovely, lovely sky.

(Yeah, you could imagine how it would look like to the NPCs, plus the random battles and cliffs I've walked off of.)

Nonvista: Morning Dew

Sometimes, there is nothing better than lying in the grass, and looking at the world in another perspective. Sure, there's dew to get your clothes wet, but it's a small price to pay for the change in viewpoint. (Plus it's fun!)

Nonvista: Clovers and Flowers

In a field of green, what do you see? Weeds and dirt?

I see little flowers of color... and clovers.

On Vacation

DC's on vacay for the week. There would probably be no beaches, mountains or sea where she's going, but at least this photo would make you think she's going there.

You can almost feel the sea breeze passing you by as you look at it, hmm.

(Note: The next few posts may differ from my regular ones.)
