Sky Watch Friday again. And winter will be here in just a couple of days. I guess that's official because it has been way too cold for my liking. Cold and windy. But that does make for pretty skies and it churns up the bay the way I like to see it.
Sky Watch is hosted by a great team of people: Sandy, Louise, Wren, Fishing Guy, Klaus and Ivar. Our thanks to all of them for keeping us going so successfully every week. Please go to the Sky Watch site to see more beautiful skies from all over the world.
I won't be participating in Sky Watch for a couple of weeks.
I want to wish everyone a Happy Hanukkah, a Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Winter Solstice, and to all of those people and everyone else I haven't included, a New Year full of happiness, good health, and most of all PEACE for all, throughout the world.
What truly lovely skies and beaches .. I wish I were there walking in the sand ... wishing you and your's a very happy healthy and hopefully prosperous new year!

Looks like it still could be summer there, without any snow. Never been to the ocean in winter, I'll be the wild waves are really something.
ReplyDeleteI love that middle shot the most, such dramatic skies
ReplyDeleteI wish all good things for you Bobbie - every day :)
Happy Festivus
These are such beautiful sky pictures. I love them and I love your tree below and all the pretty ornaments. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year.
ReplyDeleteWe are coming out of an ice storm on Monday. Hope you don't get that!
Beautiful skies! It doesn't even look cold... that's the best part.
ReplyDeleteI have been to the ocean in winter and it is bone chilly. I don't envy you out there taking these photos.
How absolutely beautiful! What a great place to walk -- well, maybe when it's warmer! Thanks, Bobbi, for lovely shots!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the well wishes for the holidays. A merry Christ mas to you!
ReplyDeleteSomething about a beach scene... winter or not, it appears less cold, you know? Great shots!
very beautiful, that sand looks so welcoming! Nice photos!
ReplyDeleteI would love to live near the ocean, even with cold winds. Wishing you the best of the season too, and a happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteLovely seascapes. I will never tire of them. Such variety... thanks for sharing the cold and windy day.
ReplyDeleteThe beach is one of my favorite places in the world, second only to Disney World :D

I love the middle one. It reminds me of a print we bought when we first married, although the print was of a sunny day.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, Bobbie!
I love the combination of deserted beach and sky watching and photography.
ReplyDeleteLove to see skies over water! Very lovely.
ReplyDeleteHello! You know how I feel about this time of year. Well let me say it anyway. I love it. I do agree that the cold does make for beautiful skies and you have proven it with these pictures. Lisa
ReplyDeleteGreat shot! :) Happy weekend and SkyWatch from Norway :o)
ReplyDeleteMmmm... sand looks so good. If I got everyone to send me a small bag of sand, I could have enough to make my own private beach! =D
ReplyDeleteAh, how cool would that be!
Great post!

ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful, Bobbie.
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays to you and yours.

Oh, Bobbie! Your photos made my morning! That second shot especially. You've captured the winter light perfectly. There is always a strange darkness at the heart of it, and you have captured it. I love the beach in winter, though I never last there too long!
ReplyDeleteLovely skies and I especially like the second pictures with the sand/snow fence showing its shadows in the sand. Happy Holidays to you too, Bobbie.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful light in your great coastal shots. I'd love to take long walks there.
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas!
Your beaches are so different from my own, yet simply beautiful! I always enjoy your photos and these skies are lovely too.
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
