Sky Watch Friday - Wiltshire landscape

These two photos were taken last week when I went to a favourite spot for birding and walking in Wiltshire. (Click to enlarge).I love clouds like this that seem to march across the sky, specially when there's not much to interrupt the view.Many thanks to the people who help make Sky Watch Friday happen.

I love clouds like that too, and that combination with the colour of the late August / early September fields after harvesting is just beautiful.

Gorgeous....it looks like you could reach up and touch those clouds they are so huge and fluffy! With such an expansive landscape, it must have been amazing to look up at them.

Jenny they are scrumptious clouds and having them "march across" those beautiful fields makes me feel like all is right in the world. Beautiful Wiltshire sky pictures Jenny!
