This is not the most spectacular sky I have recently seen, but it is not the most common type of sky we have here. I thought about showing you a spectacular sunrise from this week, but I think a lot of you were wishing for blue skies, so I chose this one.

This was a very beautiful sky. Well caught, Louise. Happy sky watch!
March 5, 2009 at 2:02 pm
Bright white fading to blue – excellent skywatch shot. I enjoyed the bright big sky!
March 5, 2009 at 2:06 pm
It looks as though you could blow it away with one little puff…
March 5, 2009 at 2:15 pm
Very impressionistic! I love it; it could be a painting.
March 5, 2009 at 2:18 pm
At first I thought I was looking at sun reflected in the ocean!
March 5, 2009 at 2:27 pm
this is spectacular especially the way you cropped it. very nice. we’re seeing some blue skies today after almost two weeks of gray rainy skies.
March 5, 2009 at 2:44 pm
We had blue skies this week, PURE blue with no clouds…but this time of year that means extremely cold weather. A cold front that kept the storms to the south and east of us.
Your blue sky and clouds is lovely. 😉

As always, I am loving what I’m seeing!
Warm greetings from West Africa!

March 5, 2009 at 3:06 pm
Oh I can practically FEEL that amazing texture Louise!
March 5, 2009 at 3:13 pm
What a beautiful cirrocumulus sky! That is wonderful.
March 5, 2009 at 3:14 pm
A nice shot grading from the deepest blue through the clouds to the starl white loking into the sun.
March 5, 2009 at 3:16 pm
Spectacular enough for me ! Wow !
March 5, 2009 at 3:21 pm
What an interesting sky! Thanks for sharing it. Happy SWF!
March 5, 2009 at 3:43 pm
What a wonderful blue with the cotton balls beside it. Great shot.
March 5, 2009 at 3:44 pm
This is such a pure blue and I can almost feel the texture of the white ripples of cloud. Lovely.
March 5, 2009 at 4:12 pm
I never tire of blue skies, good capture.
March 5, 2009 at 4:13 pm
What a beautiful blue. Interesting mix of clear and clouds.
March 5, 2009 at 4:18 pm
How strange and beautiful all at the same time. This is a one of a kind shot!
March 5, 2009 at 5:26 pm
Very nice.Very ethereal.
March 5, 2009 at 5:29 pm
Ooi – I’m very behind on your blog alone . . . didn’t think I was, but. Anyway – I am. Love this sky – the contrast and transition is amazing. Have a great weekend – we’re off to Atlanta. Be back Sunday.
March 5, 2009 at 5:30 pm
I really like it – Great clouds 🙂
Happy weekend 🙂
March 5, 2009 at 6:37 pm
It’s a very interesting photo, and I’d like even if I weren’t gaga over every blue sky I see. If I didn’t know it was the sky, I might think it was the sea, or snow in an unusual pattern.
March 5, 2009 at 6:37 pm
Looks like a bunch of cotton balls. Beautiful blue colored sky.
Have a great weekend.
March 5, 2009 at 6:46 pm
You’re right, it’s such an unusual one sky, never seen before. Thanks for the visit.
March 5, 2009 at 7:12 pm
Wow they are amazing. At first, I thought they were the sea. Have a nice weekend, Louise.
March 5, 2009 at 7:15 pm
Love that cloud formation.
March 5, 2009 at 7:23 pm
You’re right, it’s most unusual. I love it.
March 5, 2009 at 8:19 pm
It’s a beauty!
March 5, 2009 at 8:44 pm
This was a beautiful blue sky and look cool.
Have a wonderful weekend.
March 5, 2009 at 9:13 pm
It looks like fish scales, really unusual!
March 5, 2009 at 9:16 pm
very strange…and beautiful none the less.
March 5, 2009 at 9:18 pm
I feel like I’m standing looking up and the view goes on forever! Lovely.
March 5, 2009 at 9:39 pm
After the icky cloudy day I had that sky looks spectacular to me!
March 5, 2009 at 9:42 pm
What contrast between the cobalt blue and the bright white!
March 5, 2009 at 10:22 pm
Altocumulus always has something fun. I like the way the sun burns the right side to white.
March 5, 2009 at 10:23 pm
That’s *BLUE* all right! I like those tiny clouds, too. Neat photo, Louise.
I appreciate your visit to my SWF post. Thanks!
March 5, 2009 at 10:38 pm
Thanks for the blue sky — we actually had some here today as well. I really like the unique clouds you captured.

A spectacular sky with the expanse of blue and the unusual clouds. Beautiful image.
March 6, 2009 at 4:52 am
That sure is an unusual sky.
It looks like a flock of little sheep in the blue sky. 🙂

It’s pretty! Like fluffy cotton.
March 6, 2009 at 10:11 am
Beautiful! This is going to sound stupid but I’ve tried to Link back to sky watch but cannot get it figured out. When I post how should I do that?
March 6, 2009 at 11:11 am
Very unusual. Lovely blue! Thanks.
March 6, 2009 at 11:45 am
That is one gorgeous and magical sky! Amazing spread of speckled clouds!
March 6, 2009 at 1:21 pm
A very different kind of skyshot, very nice.
March 6, 2009 at 1:21 pm
I love it and I like how you cropped it!
It reminds me of the popcorn clouds I posted a couple of weeks ago. Clouds are so fascinating!
March 6, 2009 at 1:50 pm
I’m ready for a sky like that-with some warm weather to go along with it!
March 6, 2009 at 1:53 pm
Great sky, and yes we really, really want a blue sky… all the grey gets so boring !!
Erwin.
March 6, 2009 at 1:54 pm
Nice capture. It almost looks more like snow than clouds.
March 6, 2009 at 5:10 pm
i actually think it is pretty spectacular.that blue is so blue.
March 6, 2009 at 6:38 pm
Funny, cute cloud formation! Looks almost like sea foam!
Happy Sky Watching!
March 6, 2009 at 10:03 pm

Beautiful, cheery blue skies with just a touch of wispy clouds, they’re the best! 🙂 Thanks for stopping by my blog to comment on my Skywatch photo (my first)… I look forward to posting many more!

It looks almost like the reflection of a cloud in a pool of still blue water.
March 11, 2009 at 11:59 pm
A beautiful blue sky dappled with clouds.
