Not a political reference. It is a reference to how, from bottom to top, the bush, low grey stratocumulus and higher cirrus clouds, contrail, and hydro line added interest to to this lovely afternoon view and my attempt to capture it.
Welcome break
I stopped to appreciate a welcome break from January’s largely overcast sky.
Grateful
I was most grateful for this look at blue sky and cirrus clouds during our extended spell of cloudy weather.
Raised spirits
A brilliant, rousing mid-winter dawn raised my spirits even further than the height they had already reached.
Light
A fortuitous combination of sun and cloud creates a burst of light.
Lowering
The lowering sky brings a promise of snow, beginning tonight and lasting through Sunday. Forecasts suggest up to 20cm. That’s fine, we will be snug, cooking and baking, foraying out to shovel as we need, keeping the bird feeders full, walking the pups.
Light and dark

There will be many more opportunities during the next few months.
