Sky Watch Friday

I took these two SWF photos while up gardening for my Mum over the last couple of days. She lives in the little village of Colesbourne up in the Cotswold Hills.
These were both taken early morning......
one looking towards the sun overlooking sheep pasture.....

one looking the other way, this is the first halfway decent photo that I've managed to take of the moon so far, still experiementing........

That is a great moon shot! I can see all the details very clearly! I love the sheep pasture....makes me think of the 23rd Psalm :-) I remember when we visited Wales all the sheep we saw, and coming around the bend to find them in the middle of the road! Scary!

Oh, the moon is the theme this week. I did my post photos of the moon too. This is a good shot. I find it rather difficult to photo the moon. Nice shot. Loved this post. Have a great weekend.

I meant earlier to comment on how fine that lunar shot is... must have forgotten! That blue is the most wonderful color nature ever produced. NO, it has to be the green of that field.... wonderful Jenny.
