I was chatting yesterday with a follower about the big skies we get here, and today this image came up in the FB memories, from 11 years ago today.
I thought you'd like to see it. :) Big skies indeed.

One of the great things I love about living in the shadow of our tallest mountain, and one of our largest lakes, is the sky.

One of the things that struck me about travelling Route 66 was the ghost towns. Now, I'd planned to visit some Ghost Towns, but I was thinking 1800's, not 1950s. The great new freeways of the 50's bypassed town after town, and just like that, the lifeblood of tourism dried up.

Wayyyy off in distance, completely ignoring the dramatic skies above, a single little puff of cloud toot toots its way across the mountains.

I had this idea that I could capture an interesting image of an aurora along the highway. It didn't really come out, but I did like the look of this one truck that came along.

Torrents frozen fast,
Ephemeral built to last,
Chaotic carven land,
Filigrees of coarse sand,
Gossamer In Stone,
And Loving, all alone.

The West sky burns in coloured rage,
While Southward pulses emerald hues,
And far below, in netted cage.
Swim Azure Fish with Lilac Views.

Balancing the long exposure times needed to smooth the rippled water, with the brilliant supermoon was a wee tad tricky. So here we have 10 seconds of buttery smooth pond, and a small flock of lenticulars above.

Some parts of this bridge in Yosemite date back to the 1850s.
It's really cool to walk over a wooden structure that old, and wonder at the years that it's witnessed.

The full moon tonight lit the night as bright as day.
At least, it did for a 4 second exposure. :)
Such lovely clouds this evening, with a warm breeze.
After the Spring we had, I'd almost say it was pleasant!

High above Lake Manapouri, this track climbs the mountain, switchback after switchback. Sometimes, we'd have to stop and move a few pebbles out of the way...

Hidden away from civilisation, home of kea and kiwi and sandflies.
Soooo many sandflies.
I've seen unwary tourists swarmed by sandflies and carried away bodily, lifted high into the surrounding peaks.
Home here is only for the brave. Or the very skinny!

A bonus Halloween post, because it's still the 31st somewhere!
I wanted to write a ghost poem to go with this, but every time I look at it I keep hearing Genesis playing "Home by the Sea." So, from my earworm to yours.

I recall well, those days of yore.
Just you and I, on sandy shore,
Arms entwined, to seagull yells,
Strolling, seeking pretty shells.
Chasing waves, and in reverse,
Laughing, fleeing wetting curse.
White sand below, and blue above,
Cool breezes waft around our love.
