Sky Picture Of the Day for April 20, 2013
Very nice clouds in the morning. Winds on the ground headed West and winds aloft headed East with the clouds leaving streamers behind.

Sky Picture Of the Day for February 18, 2013
Look closely and you’ll see a shadow of clouds from the setting Sun which appears as a long pillar darker than the rest of the sky. The camera was pointing at the East horizon.

This post is a bit late due to illness so here are two pictures for you. Got home just in time to get some great clouds.

Sky Picture Of the Day for Jan 19, 2013.
The goal of this series is to take a picture each day where the sky is the primary feature and depending on how busy I get, the posting of it might be a bit late. Here’s the shot from yesterday.

Another featureless gray day. Another picture from the archive. Pretty clouds after days of rain from a few days ago.
SPOD: 011113 Glass Sky
Glorious sunrise this morning followed by more gloriousness while I was driving in (blinding golds and yellows reflecting off the clouds) and as I’m turning away from my car to walk into work I see this. “Ooooh, that’s interesting.” and pull out my camera. Next time I’ll get out the tripod too. It’s difficult to get bracketed shots by hand.

Sky Picture Of the Day. Two days of rain followed by glorious morning clouds moving across the sky at an incredible pace. Got one there that looks like an armadillo with a bushy tail. Or maybe a brain.

Sky Picture Of the Day. Here’s a try at getting some good grey sky. I may have to update this after I master working with masks in Gimp (or succumb to downloading the free version of Photoshop that’s recently become available and master those masks). The point of these posts wasn’t my mastery of Gimp so this one’s going online as-is.
Alright, here’s the final. Learned a bit more about Gimp and have pulled additional detail from the clouds.
Ahh, a September Ceili
It’s finally cooling off, the clouds saw fit to mizzle on us most of the day and the temperature was finally in the range where it was pleasant to go for a walk in the middle of the day.
Naturally we all piled into the pub Trinity Hall to jump around and get hot to good music played by the Trinity Hall Session Players
The dances done were:
Haymakers jig,
Siege of Ennis
Kilfenora Set
High Cauled Cap
Ballyvourney jig
Rakes of Mallow
Hopefully next month I’ll be able to spend more time dancing and calling than this time. Thanks to everyone how came out to dance and to Trinity Hall and the session players for the venue and wonderful music!
