Skywatching while Sick


Most people who have been reading my blogs know that i have the 5th Floor Window at my city dwelling, and i have wonderful sunsets. I have posted a lot of sunsets  in the past, not two of them the same. I have also showed the position of the sun in relation to the most prominent structure on my horizon, and said "look at how the sun moves from the structure"! It is so amusing that one commenter suggested even, that actually it is the earth that moves and not the sun. It was a very hilarious comment, and i ended up really very much entertained. I just told him that it is to obviate boredom from the obvious. I wonder if there is still a soul on earth who doesn't know that it is the one moving, hahaha!

Now we are at the rainy season, sunset views are not daily during this time. There is no sun everyday. I hope the commenter will not suggest that the clouds only cover the sun. Sorry folks, i am just amusing myself because i am sick, resting hopefully well for the next week grind. 

So here is my supposed to be sunset view, with the clouds already busting in the horizon. We will not get the rain from that burst because the clouds on top of us is not that heavy. I will content myself with a bit of drizzles. Happy Weekend!

And the two photos  below are our sunsets a few days ago!

  2. Gorgeous colours in those sunsets. It's fantastic that no two are ever the same. Isn't it amazing how you can see a patch of heavy rainfall not far off, yet only get a few raindrops where you are. In the build-up to the wet season, we often see dark clouds approaching from behind the hills in the distance, thinking we'll get rain, but the clouds skirt around the back of the hills and drop their treasure elsewhere.

    1. Yes Bernie, we both are privilege to have lovely seasonal environmental panorama. Sometimes we joke here, that rain comes by district. When i leave the office it is raining hard and a few kilometers about 10min away it is very dry. That is our weather these days!

  10. Eye-popping images!! In the top-most shot, the clouds look almost like the mushroom cloud of an A-bomb blast -- eerie. The burning sky sunsets are just glorious. Kudos!

    1. Wow thank you so much for your appreciation, and most specially for your visit. This is your first time here, i hope you will drop by again. I am facing the sunset in my city dwelling while sunrise for my home in the province. If only life is just composed of sunrise and sunsets, we can't ask for more!

    1. Thanks George for the visit, even if i am amiss in mine! I am much better now, after being absent for several days. I know you've been a teacher, and you can relate with me for talking 12 full mornings. Being sick is the reward.
