It has been a while since I’ve partaken in the “Looking at the sky on Friday” meme, but I’m back with loads of sky pictures today, when the sky was particularly tall and blue – just how I like it.
As I walked to the station this evening and I stopped and looked for a minute, as I was passing the Royal Exchange. The evening sun had caught the eastern clock tower beautifully and as it happened, I had my camera with me – and I never was able to resist a photo opportunity!
The sun was reflecting on the white of the tower, giving the effect of water reflection on the bottom of a ship. The contrast of the white against the blue of the sky was close to making me late for my train!

Before I had to dash off to the station, I managed one last snap – of the huge gilded Gresham grasshopper at the top of the tower.
I caught the train and made my way from the station to home. The weather has suddenly turned, summer is here and I love it. I stopped for a second and looked up a the plane that was making its way across the sky. I can’t see a plane or a jetstream on the sky without dreaming of my next holiday.
This evening I looked up at the sky and what I saw really made me chuckle. The only cloud on the sky looked like a witch travelling on her broomstick across the sky, with an airplane in hot pursuit.
That’s a wee selection of what I saw, when I looked at the sky today. What did you see? Find more information about how to play along, by visiting Tisha’s blog.
