I love to participate in Sky Watch and am humbled to be honored in the link. I try to be here each week.
Sky Watch Friday has a new home and a life of it's own. Please check out the new sight and link in if you wish to participate. There were 375 people last week with beautiful Sky photos. You can link in from my side bar or above

The view even got more spectacular as I drove to work and the Sun rose into the clouds.

Last weekend was a beautiful two days on the lake with a wonderful Sky. The fishing was also really good if you look at previous posts.

I even caught a Seagull aloft over the lake in the beautiful Sky. This cloud has an animal shape with the and I think it is Dumbo the flying elephant.

This is my front yard yesterday morning with the Ohio Buckeye Tree set against the morning Full Moon. Those are the fast growing Buckeye from my home state tree.

Very nice collection of photos from Ohio! You sure have a beautiful route to work!
thank you for a lovely trip... beautiful photos!
Lovely set of photos and a great intro on the main page also, FG!
Yes, that is definitely Dumbo! Great catch, and I'm loving the seagull. Beautiful settings and I am very fond of shots from moving cars (passenger side of course!).
It is good to live at a place like that, lake, wonderful sky and fishing, Thank you for sharing it.
I love to stay at the lake.
Beautiful photos.
Thank you for the wonderful moon!!
I forgot to mention, You're right, the guy directing the dragon is a viking in his horned helmet.
Troy
Great SkyWatch photos! Beautiful set of pictures!
It IS Dumbo!!! Fun shot!
Those are all wonderful shots and I enjoyed the poem and photograph you had on the skywatch site today.
Each image in your series shows such a gorgeously different sky, FG. Thank you for the journey.
Very nice. I like your nr 2 best. Beautiful
Some beautiful skies you've got there. Your country music is starting to grow on me. (God forbid!)
great series of photos for sky watch
Looks like a lovely place. Congrats on your feature on the main linky blog. :)

I loved the first two. What vivid colors.
My personal favourite is shot 2, nice colours in there. Could I just say that the auto play music on your blog kind of assumes that the person isn't already playing music on their computer, and it doesn't sound good playing over the top. If people want to listen to your jukebox, can they can start it themselves? Again, great sky watch, thanks.
Beautiful photos,I really love the first and the second one!
A lake plus beautiful sky in a photo is always the best to look at! I enjoy skywatch too and so do I enjoy your photos too! =)
Visiting from Vienna Daily...
That are beautiful skies there! Love the last one!
Mine is here;
Sky Watch #8

These are very beautiful photos. I envy you the beautiful lake setting. Lovely skywatch! Thank you for visiting my blog with your kind words.
That is beautiful series of skies and lake views.
Beautiful sky photos!!

A beautiful series of sky photos, and a wonderful intro to this week's sky watch.
Such wonderful photos... The moon is splendid!
Mountain Retreat
What beautiful weather you had and I do see the elephant
Wonderful series of sky images FG!
I like the one at the lake the best.
Congrats on the the link!
I don't fish but I'd love to just sit there in such a peaceful place. So true what you said about SWF. It is an amazing collaberation.
Great photos, all of them!
I love the 2nd shot! Happy SW!

Good job, my friend - both here and at the SWF home!
All available thumbs up!
Cheers, Klaus
Love the first shot!
The colors in that first picture are beautiful... what a great "virtual trip"! :)
Prairie Visions
Beautiful.
Lovely photos. The sunrise is so beautiful, wish I saw it more often. Being a night owl mornings and I are not the greatest mix.
I'll be in Ohio on Saturday, hope I'll get see skies like those.
Happy SWF.
Great array of pictures you've shared with us. They're beautiful just like the one featured on Skyley site today :)
Happy Weekend Thomas!!
Thanks for the trip around Ohio. I love the morning shots. I've seen a couple of shots in my rear view mirror as I drive west toward work, but so far haven't been able to find a place to pull over and take the shot. It's my favorite time of day.
Wonderful shots...thanks for sharing.
Spectacular!
Love your pictures. Dumbo is adorable. And I love your music when I come onto your blog. It's great to hear the different choices in music. Kinda gives another insight to the person you are visiting. Thanks for a great post today for SWF!!!
Great images, FG...and a very nice intro....
Very nice set of photos here and a great intro on the main Sky Watch blog!
Beautiful shots, especially the Dumbo frame!
Insert the clapping smiley here, because I saw dumbo. You are right! I love your photo on the Sky Watch site and the nice poem too. Have fun fishing this weekend and I hope those crappie are bitting!
your photos are always amazing FG. you captured the different lights and hues of the sky. great job.
Glad you were chosen as the featured blogger for SWF! Lovely, peaceful picture & perfect for the Fishing Guy.
Whoa! Great photos all in different shades and colors. Good collection presented.
Great pictures.
Perfect one for SWF! Mine's up too hope you can drop by... Happy weekend!
Beautiful, FG.
Beautiful sky in your beautiful photos.
Just beautiful!!
I love your photos. It is recognizable that they are very personal and mean something to you. Thank you for sharing and wonderful trip around Ohio. Happy SWF:-)
Yes, that cloud DOES look like Dumbo, and your fishing spot is so appealing... I wish...
I wish I could some day go fishing with you, though I don't know if I'll ever get out that way... I'm just sayin'. I expect there's a lot I could learn. That catch from the posts below is amazing.
Very pretty photos
Happy weekend!
90 comments so far Fishing Guy. Wow. I'm going to have to get in line to say I like the photo of th buckeye tree. You have a good weekend and go fishing if your wife allows you to go.
Great awesome Sky Watch Friday photos! Enjoyed them all. Thanks for the great post starting off.
Beautiful pictures. I'm sure that made your ride to working much brighter.
I enjoyed the "trip". Great photos.
A wonderful trip! Did you catch any fish?
Thanks for your comment re the rolls royce.
Our skies are definately NOT blue this weekend! It's holiday time.
Cool photos!
Great pics. I like the first one best. Very pretty!
Lisa
Again, thanks for the award!
Beautiful fishing lake. I'm too much of a slug to get up for sunrise. I do my fishing at sunset and right off the front porch of my floating cabin. My contribution today is about airplanes in the sky. I invite you to come see. - Margy
These sky shots are just beautiful! I have enjoyed your site. Come visit mine sometime at www.sherrikphotography.blogspot.com. Have a great weekend.
What a great photo album! That seagull was the icing on the cake.
Enjoyed your words this week too on the SWF intro.
p.s. on my walk around the lake last week I came upon a twenty-something guy grinning from ear to ear, carrying about an 10" bass he'd just caught.
Happy weekend!
All these pics are so magical! The colours and textures are awesome!
Some fantastic colors in the first shot.
I really loved it!
Beautiful shots, exellent:))
I love sky pictures. I never tire of the clouds and their changing shapes and shadows. Your photographs certainly capture that.
Lovely.

I enjoyed the trip to Ohio!
I dedicated a song to you at my place.
Wow, you fish in pretty places. I like your clouds over the water also, it always makes so much more of the blues. You really will do some sky watching if you look at all 106! Happy SkyWatching!
Thank you for peeking in at my Gutemala clouds (a couple alos over the water).
..
Really nice photos! Great intro too! :-) Have a wonderful weekend!

Great Photo - Please stop by and check out my blog. Iowa Nature Photos will now be a photo blog with no caption or commentary. I do not have the time to dedicate to my blog that I have in the past but would still like to post photos. I hope that you will continue to support my blog in the future.
This is a great series of SWF pics
Wonderful photos!

Nice to see you on the welcome page of skywatch!! Keep up the great work, and love the music!!

Beautiful pictures. Sitting on a lake and meditating is the best thing to do.
We've been having some excitement here in Laos. My SWF offering shows scenes of floods and sandbagging over here. I don't know that you'd want to try fishing here!
Great photos! When I saw your "name" on top of SWF, I thought, wow, I know him! Like I really know you? That's what it feels like when you've visited a good blogger like yourself often enough.
I'm proud to be comment #121 on this long list.
