Skies over Sorrento.....

The sky two nights ago when Aimee and I were doing our constitutional along the coast road..I know I tend to complain a tad (who, moi?) about the weather in Summer (39C blegh!!) but deep down in my 'clammy' heart I do know how incredibly lucky we are to live five (three if the lights are green) minutes away from sights like this. Happy skywatch Friday....

  6. Yes it is a place for perfect sunsets, I have to remind myself of that fact when I get homesick :(

    A lovely shot, I must get down to the beach again too, trouble is I dislike this heat, hence, I stay indoors!

  14. I only wish I lived that close to the beach Grace - a magical place for a photographer with it's ever changing moods.. A friend and I are leaving early tomorrow for a photo shoot at the beach then breakfast at
    Henley Square right by the jetty.

  21. Still chuckling about your wording in this post! And here on my peninsula we are craving some summer! But it's meant to be a top of 36 degrees today and it's climbing already at 7:05am! Love the vibrant colours in your sky! Incredible!

    Health, peace and happiness in the New Year!
