Raven soaring over Cedar Breaks National Monument, Utah
Lately we’ve been traveling around southern Utah and northern Arizona where the skies often begin with the clearest Southwestern blue.
Looking at Cedar Breaks from Highway 14
Then a few lazy clouds may drift in to add dimension to the sky.

Or a light wisp of clouds just lighten the color.

But it is monsoon season so the clouds can quickly build into storm proportions.

Yet the clouds do bring some of the most magnificent sunsets.

Wednesday afternoon from the Grand Lodge
And at Grand Canyon the skies have been mostly gray and laden with a bit of rain here and there. Only to open and scatter allowing rays of sun to highlight sections of the canyon’s walls.

That's quite a variety of skies. These are beautiful shots.
Alaska had mostly overcast skies but the sun came out enough for some good shots.
Wow, you and Mike certainly have seen a lot of gorgeous skies lately! There hasn't been much rain in Tucson yet this monsoon season. The land looks quite parched, ready for a good soaking.
Catching up with you, Gaelyn. Your skies have been varied but mostly clear it seems. I LOVE your header Is that mist?
Gaelyn: Beautiful views of the sky, love the canyon.
No two have been the same have they? Love these northern Arizona skies almost as much as you!
All of your skies are beautiful, but that last one is truly breathtaking.
I like the first and 2nd ones.
Beautiful collection of sky shots!
Love your new header. Wow - it's been a while! I've been so busy since I arrived in the states last month. Is your phone # the same as last year?
One could possibly get a cink in the neck looking up at all the sky in your part of the world. Beautiful skies all around.
amazing photos...............
Gorgeous skies and my favorite is the 2nd and the last one. Thanks for sharing!

Who needs art on the walls when you can look up and see different skies like these. Beautiful!
It's a dilemma to have to choose isn't it.
I like them all. An ever changing sky.
