Dynamic Skies

This is the early-morning sky as I walk to campus. My first eight years were spent in a land of dynamic skies, invigorating winds, and general wetness, and although I love the sun in a clear-blue sky, a view like this one reaches down deeper, past the sun of my later childhood, to an earlier joy. I feel deep contentment and childish excitement. I want to close my eyes and feel a crisp breeze bringing with it the promise of rain. But this sky comes laced with frustration as I realize yet again that the breeze is fleeting, or at least in its cooler form, and that the clouds are only a brief respite from the eternal blue.

  1. What an amazing moment to capture in this sky. I too came from somewhere where there were a more dynamic quality to the sky and so it excites me too to finally see some non-blue skies!
