Every cloud ...

Every cloud has a silver lining.

Howth Harbour, Dublin

A beautiful cold spring day

Shadows racing by

As sunlight plays

Hide and seek

In the wind torn sky.

Fractured cloudscape

Thick frost on the car windscreen

Sunlight just catching

An impressionist painting

Of a fractured cloudscape.

Flying

Storm clouds over the Irish Sea

Sweeping in

Blotting out the sun.

Less than an hour later,

Somewhere over Germany,

That same sun sets

The sky aglow

Purple, vermillion and indigo.

Beautiful Skies from above

A recent flight to Dublin during stormy weather.

The clouds cleared as we passed through a cold front

resulting in these beautiful cloud formations

backlit by the setting sun.

End of Summer

The last sunshine of a September Sunday glimmers across the River Dee at high tide

but the clouds are gathering as a frontal system sweeps in from the west,

bringing rain, wind and an end to the balmy late summer day.
