The sky by mittens

The sky

No clouds in the sky this morning on the longest day of the year. What can I say, I love the sky. :) I just had the silly idea of taking a picture of the sky with no clouds in it.

There are clouds building now, though. Our high is reaching the 90's today. It's been probably the hottest day of the year so far.

Thank you so much for your comments and favs.
Oooh - love your composition! Longest day not the 21st then?

@judithg Thank you Judith. I heard that summer begins here today at 7:09 pm and the news said today would be the longest day. I usually think it is on the 21st, too.

What a beautiful shade of blue. I love days like that but it doesn't really help with the heat.

I found this guy who is doing a 365 project of only clouds. This could be the start of the opposite! hope you all stay cool there.

@stepheesue LOL That's really interesting, Stephanie. How cool to do only clouds. It would be hard to get a clear sky here every day. Dosen't happen often. :)

I was just floating in our pool and noticed the same all blue sky!

One of the hottest days of the year here also, 100. Seems like a lot of us are sizzling. Love your photo, Marilyn. Great idea.

I like this idea! very "minimalist" haha! It is weird how you guys up north on the east coast are burning up and we down here in the Deep South (GA) have not been. But it is beginning....today. Ugh.

Pretty shade of blue. The weather here in Florida has been so beautiful lately --- only in the 80s and a nice breeze. I am astounded to hear of the high temps up north. I lived there as a child and I remember the heat always seemed so much more intense than it is here. Hope you get some relief soon.

Perfect shade of blue and just a hint of green from the trees.
June 21st, 2012  
like that little sprint of tree. Made me smile
June 21st, 2012  
Really neat shot!

Fantastic color! Love the tree in the corner.

I'm a sky girl, too. Cool capture

Perfectly expressed! Love the tree branch!

I like it. I was intrigued to see what it was. Not a silly idea at all

So it is!
