Skywatch #30


Spanish Lady, originally uploaded by duopastorale.

A big welcome to all my Spanish visitors today! This was taken in the Spanish town of Ayamonte just near the Portuguese border. I think it's the nicest musical statue I've seen. And there it is, that amazing blue sky! Mind you, we've seen plenty of that here in London recently. I hope the sun is shining where you are today. Have a great weeekend.

Mike: What a really cool view of the statue in the sky.

I agree. It's a great statue and definitely set before a great looking sky. Yes, I'm looking at the same kind of sky today but it will be almost 90 today. Sigh! I'll be glad when it cools off.
What a beautiful blue sky background and an interesting statue. I invite you to come see my sky views from the BC Ferry to Powell River. -- Margy

Like you said: The nicest musical statue...but as I can't read the musical language (note marks), I don't know what a melody must come to my mind...

Beautiful image, Mike. A nice change from the scores of "fall colors" images I've been seeing this week. Glad to hear you've had such nice weather in your neck of the world lately. Been raining and overcast the last few days here in Houston, Texas, but we're finally due for another round of sunshine this weekend.

Hope you have a great one!

Why, that beats Strauss fidling in Vienna. Lovely statue, great shot.
Nice to know you are getting some blue skies in London.

You should have been there at the unveiling ,20 minites before the great public unveiling,the cloth skirt ripped in a gust revealing with every gust a little bit more of that fine figure.I have the sequence of photos of the event.

How beautiful! I think this would have been nice with any sky, but the sky cooperated to be perfect.
