"SUMMER AND WINTER-Sky"
*
Watch the opposite between:
A warm PORTUGUESE summer-sky or a cool DUTCH wintersky
PORTUGAL,
Above: a Portuguese SUMMERsky with a cool ICEcream .
WHY this shot?
I liked the contrast of the COOL icecream and the BLUE sky in the background.
And....I love to eat icecream ,
The YELLOW wall made the picture complete...

.... or HOLLAND

Our Bridge in Naarden is looking over the still Frozen ICE-canals.
On the photo you see a Frozen bridge bottom ,surrounded in frozen water , located under the bridge in village Naarden ,with a view on my house .Watch the one with the orange roof.

That's so different from our current (summer scenery)
Your photo on the SkyWatch home page today is such a great shot.
Beautiful sequence of shots and I also loved the one on the Skywatch home page.
Great choices for Skywatch, except, now I'm shivering. Loved the one on the Skywatch home page, too.
CHILLY!!!! Nice post.
Looks cold there as well, great shots.
Cheers!

The summer and winter contrasts are great. Beautiful sky in the first photo. I like your frosty title pic, too.
Great contrast between images, summer and winter, the only cold thing being the "icecream" in the first.
i love the bold colors of the icecream pictures, it makes me lust for summer more than ever...
Wonderful - both posts, fantastic shots.
Beautiful photos. Congratulations on being the feature at skywatch!
Ah give me Portugal although a bit of snow can be fun too
I love both of your SW images. The ice cream seems to be echoed in the billowy clouds above. Stay warm and stay away from ice cream until the hot summer days come back. Hi from California.
Beautiful images. I love the contrast in color and the different seasons. You can really feel the difference in weather with your pictures. Try to stay warm. :)
Hi ... nice picture. I like the clouds in the first picture. And the ice-cream, ha ha, like it too!
Even though they sound alike, there's a big difference in how much I like ice cream and ice in the water. :) Thanks for doing our guest intro today - and stay warm!
Both are great and what a contrast! Happy SWF to you!!
Thank you Jo'Ann! The first is sooooo pretty. I guessed Spain but didn't let it be known.
My sky is Florida on the way to the Caribbean.
Happy SkyWatching!
..
The difference between yellow and blue, really! Love your shots!
Yes, ofcouse, the different... But I can also see the lightness: There is ice in bort the pictures ;) And I think I prefere the ice cream - longing for the summer :) Great post :)
Hehe - the LIKENESS ;)) Have a nice day :)
So, you have it so near to the ice skating! Must have been tempting! (I guess it will now rapidly smelt.)
your photo is quite amazing almost unreal (the top one.) whew.
Well, JoAnn, you know me ... I'll stick to our cousy summer!
They are surreal.
Hi JoAnn! TGIF!! ;)
I would say that your Portuguese Summer Sky looks a bit too winterly for our Portuguese standards... ;))
Blogtrotter, still posting on Delhi, waits for you! Enjoy and have a great weekend!

Awesome shade of blue here! And a challenging lighting situation too with the shadow under the arch.
Nicely done!

THANK YOU skywatchers
Ik vind beide foto's mooi, maar voel me het meeste thuis bij de Nederlandse foto op het ogenblik! Bedankt voor je aardige comment. Er zitten alleen maar aardige mensen bij blogspot!! Toch??
Either or.....cool.....we are up to our knees in the snow and it is freezing here.....but I love the landscape of snow shots regardless of how cold it is!
