Sky Highlights 2017 #SkywatchFriday

We've come to the end of the year and it's time to review some of the best skies of 2017.  I don't think I featured these exact photos in Skywatch before, but they called out to me from my camera roll.

A January sunrise in Binghamton, New York.
June 2, clouds behind trees (their leaves now a distant memory).

During the total solar eclipse (not quite at totality), Columbia, South Carolina, August 21.  It started out with clouds covering the moon from time to time, and we feared we might not be able to see the eclipse, but the clouds receded before our eyes.  The sky has a sunset like glow, but it was only early afternoon.

And a sky reflection, December, downtown Binghamton, New York.

Happy 2018 to my readers, and to my fellow #SkywatchFriday participants.

See you in the New Year!

    Sky gazing gives peace to the mind. The blue sky with its fluffy white clouds, or the orange sky on an eclipse day...it's the best work of art to spend time looking at, isn't it?
