The Setting Sun

Part of me died when I found that I lost my camera.

I then looked up at the sky, and soon realized that each day will close with the sun setting. The sun moves on, and it will continue to do so for quite some time, no matter what circumstances may come - a little wind, a strong typhoon, an eclipse.

And so shall you be able to move on, too.

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.)

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.

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.

Breathe and Marvel

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

Clouds and Skyscrapers

A lazy gaze upwards shows me a bit of greenery, the blue sky, some clouds... And tall, tall skyscrapers in between.

There's a sun smack in the middle of my horizon.
