Sky Watch Reflections
I must admit I can be quite lazy with Sky Watch. All I have to do is walk down to my front yard every day and just point and shoot. Mother Nature always puts on a wonderful show for me.
It was quite dark by the time I had finished my walk and I had taken a pile of pink/red sunset photos, but this is the one I liked best. This is looking towards Rabaul and yes most of that "cloud" is ash and you can follow it down to the volcano. The ripples were caused by me splashing my foot - I thought it would add to the photo.

magnificent photos with beautiful colors of the sky
Fantastic, very beautiful.
Hello Jules glad to see the phone lines allowed you access my friend... two of the finest reflection shot here, I knew when you started to join in what we were in for.. your pictures add to sky watch each week.. and I thank you.
Great photos!
Perfect eye for reflections.
my double reflection is now up please feel free to visit-thanks.
Great nature and beautiful shots.
That top picture is a knock your socks off winner. Wow. It is really nice, Jules.
Beautiful shots, Jules. See you in July ...... keep me posted.
Amazing photos, and thanks for the little ripple, it made the photo much more appealing! What an incredible scene really ... you're not in any danger there, are you?
Jules: I love them both, so well shown on SWF.
Oh gosh, not lazy at all, just very lucky... these are stunning.
Rocky Mountain Retreat
What a blessing to have such views, and what a gift to share them.
So beautiful!
Aren't you the lucky one to have so much beauty right in front of you!
You are so fortunate to have this kind of beauty at your doorstep.
WOW - beautiful!
I can't imagine having such amazing views right out front! I feel very lucky to have found your blog so at least I can see photos like this and live the beach life vicariously. And yes, giving us a little bit of ripple was a nice touch for that photo.
I knew you would have an awesome skywatch...the bar is high in this crowd! I might have to just enjoy the view....nothing like that here!
very nice
Very lovely skywatch, Jules.
I appreciate you sharing these fantastic views with us.
Wow, These shots are fantastic. The best shots for SWF this week at my opinion.
Turner! That's what your first picture looks like: a Turner sky!
Not too bad for a point and shoot. ;)
It was an excellent idea to ripple that water a bit.
indeed spoiled...what a view from your front lawn...!!
Stunning shots...!
Glorious photos. Cheers...
Hi All thanks for your comments - will try and get around to you all!!!
Tommy - I tried but was unable to see your photos as there were too many and they were too big - I couldn't download them. Sorry!!!
Knoxville Girl - for reason I couldn't open your page - will try tomorrow!!!
I think it's great that you have such an easy Sky Watch assignment!
More stunning photos. I would be lazy too...so much so that I might find a place to sit and never move again! These are just breathtaking!
This is so beautiful:)
Petunia's SWF
Great photos! These are just breathtaking!
Spectacular pictures. I absolutely love the second one. The cloud formation and little island in front makes a perfect composition.
It's the making of ripples that can make life varied.
Thanks All
M B - I am very good at that!!!
My husband spent about 5 years in Papua when he was in High School and I've been meaning to show him your website. Oh no. I hope I didn't already tell you this-I'm having deja vu!
Anyway he is writing a book set in Rabaul before the volcanos, called The Cargo Cult. I've read the first hundred pages and it is interesting. :) Catcha on the flipside(and I'd hope it's not this lady's flipside )!
Oh, I just showed him your photos and he was really excited. He even mentions those old war caves in his book at some point. He said he might have some questions for you in the name of research if you wouldn't mind. We'll check back! :)
Shan - I moved your comments from extra photos as I have deleted that post - it was just a joke and was only to be there for a short time.
I'd be delighted to help your husband with his research anytime - just yell!!!
Wonderful photos and lucky for you to be able to do that
THIS is the view from you front yard?!! WOW! It's so beautiful.
I only see other houses.
So did I mention that this is SO my type of house, and....... can I move in....... um........ maybe tomorrow? LOL
Fantastic photos. We can imagine all that goes along with such views (calm, serenity...).
You are right about Mother Nature, but it still takes a good photographer to get a good shot. These are super.
That stick and bush in the sea......fine photo Jules. Really well done.
Almost perfect capture!
Seems that with all that sky and bananas, one could ask for little more.
Poor Dive. I think he thinks he is in the tropics. He has gone quite troppo, today.
As my grandfather once said, "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery !"
Beautiful images.
Hi All - thanks for your comments
M B - I am very curious about Dive - better go have a look!!!
Chuckeroon - the bush is actually an island - cute isn't it???
Jules - there is plenty of room and plenty of other bloggers to talk to!!!
Both stunning photos.
Loved the results even if you were lazy! The ripples added something extra to the pic. Thanks!
Very impressive photos! Absolutely beautiful!!!
