Looking at the Sky on Friday - Lying Down

Nope, this picture is NOT upside down. It was taken as I laid down in the front yard and admired the beautiful blue skies! I did nothing to this photo to alter the color in any way. The skies were truly that blue! It was a gorgeous day and I took advantage of it by stretching a blanket out on the ground with the kiddos and stared at the sky. We should all take the time to enjoy this sort of view from time to time!

I am having trouble with Mr Linky so please leave your links in the comment so that we can follow to your blog! Happy Friday everyone.

I love this perspective ;--)
The color of the sky is MARVELOUS and I agree ... laying down on the Sky Watch job can yield nifty results for sure. I've shared at Small Reflections and plan to share on my other blogs too ... so I'll check back and leave those links when the posts are up. Happy Friday ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

The tree looks inverted, for sure. It's not that I'm dizzy from studying your cool photo...The sun is almost hiding in the mist, but the glow is soft - the sky looks great even with no defined clouds. Nice!

it's relaxing to do that once in a while and nice also to shoot pics like that makes a lot of unique difference! good shot! it's my first time here and my entry is up at http://racelyn.com/2009/05/looking-at-sky-on-friday-mall-sunset.html

I was tempted to turn my computer upside down so that I could try this one from another perspective or I guess I could have laid down on the living room floor and held the computer over my head to get the true view! Of course, I'd probably still be on the floor if I'd done that!

My photo for this week was taken from the front yard, too, but I was on both feet at the time. Laying down does sound good, though!

Mom Knows Everything said...

That is pretty cool looking!

What an amazing sky!
Lovely shot as well :)

I think Mr. Linky is updating something.
Oh well, have a happy weekend!

Tink *~*~* said...

Great way to get a different perspective on the sky :) Check your email for a message from Mr. Linky - something about the code changing or whatever.

I'm back after a hiatus for vacation. Looking forward to visiting around.

Thanks, everyone!

Sometimes you just gotta lie down and look up at the heavens...

Happily Retired Gal said...

Back again ... this time with a link to Happily Retired Gal where I've shared an unusually 'fishy' SKY collage ... just because ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

Heart of Rachel said...

That's a nice angle. It's rewarding to just relax and enjoy looking at the beautiful sky.

Misty DawnS said...

What a neat perspective! Very creative shot.

Come see my rainbow at www.mistysmusings.com

P.S. I got it your blog to load this time... but it's hit and miss. I don't know what's going on.

Misty DawnS said...

Me again -
I did another LATSKOF post at
www.mistyswords.com

(PS - took me three times to keep your blog loaded long enough so I could leave this message)

Kim said...

Trisha,

Your picture is just amazing! It reminds me of the one that I did laying down by the lake one day. In fact I think I used it for one of your LATSOF posts awhile back. I love these type of pictures and I love lying down on the ground.

Thanks again for posting my comment. Glad that the problems are now resolved. I hated not viewing your site. :)

Talk to you again soon!
Kim

I didn't play...but I have a bunch from our trip to use for the coming months...laughing.

Patti said...

Hmmm...now that's an interesting way to take a photo ;-) Cool idea.

I'm visiting almost a week late. I feel badly that I haven't taken part in about a month, but I'm all set for this week's.
