What A Difference A Day Makes
Yesterday afternoon on a trip out to the store after hours of rain I thought about the two water tanks in the photo below. Before I could get that far the skies opened up again as you can see in the above photo. The water tanks in the photo below would be on the right side of this photo just out of view.
Today was a much better day! After three inches of rain and rising waters this was a lovely site to see. I am participating in a project called Project Blue so I'm combining that and Skywatch today with the beautiful blue skies and the blue water towers.

These are all nice skys and your photography is really nice to see. A great Sky Watch set of photos.
These are all very nice. I guess the towers will stay plenty full for a while!
Truly... what a difference a day can make.
Great Sky Watch Blue photos!! I love the rain on the windshield!
Beautiful blue skies after the rain. Lovely Carletta! :)
Carletta: Very cool post and way to sneak in two Memes.
And wee have the sun these days :-)
But it is almost to hot..., just sitting and drinking wather. Strange to be Norway.
Nice pictures.
I did a post earlier today titled Around the bend. Nice Post here.
Those are nice big fat water towers! You know I love water towers!
Carletta, what lovely photos you have here.
The one with raindrops is very nice!
I like all these, Carletta, but that first one makes me feel like I am in the vehicle with you!
great pictures and great catch.
Glad the sun finally came through. Great pictures!
Simply wonderful, their photos. Congratulations.
Hi Carletta, great pictures and thoughtful post as always... :O)
This is a lovely series for SWF! Nice skys, at least in the last two!
It's amazing how much rain was coming down and then such a difference in weather... like night and day. But I love the photo of the raindrops... that's pretty.

Great series of photos. It's nice to see a blue sky after rain.
Great SWF.
Our sky is wet.
Come visit,
Troy and Martha
A big difference.
Nice series. :)
Rain or shine the skies give us variety.
A great set of images and how the sky changes.
Yes I agree how quickly the sky changes its colors and shades. I liked the first shot with water droplets.
The sky photos say it all. Light blue to bright blue to gray rain cloud blue. Fortunately the blue water towers can hold a lot of rain water.
I like the fire pit too. I've always wanted one and a blue mosaic rim would be just perfect.
I'm normally not a fan of the rain. But this first image makes me reconsider. There is something soothing and relaxing about it. I keep coming back to look at it.
Regarding my comment earlier, I sure hope I didn't vent too much. I reread it and think I could have said it differently. I did not mean to put you in a defensive position at all. I think you understand I meant nothing mean spirited. I probably should not have vented on your space here.
Carletta, I love that song!!
You always leave the sweetest comments...thanks for that.
Believe it or not, it was nice to see a rainy day photo for a change....
Cheers,
Scotty
I didn't know water towers still existed! Are they used?
Great photos, girl!
I always say, just wait 24 hours and it will change :)
Great photos,I love the raindrops on your windscreen.
What a neat photo on the top. I look at that and it seems like I'm sitting there with you! Yes, I love barns just like Rose! Both of us have always loved photography and love to take pictures of barns. Every time I'm out driving anywhere I look for barns but seems like everytime I see one that I want to take a picture of someone's always on my bumper in a hurry. :)
Oh I am so sorry it was raining... Here, Lisbon is getting warmer from day to day!!
;-)
Wonderful post!!!
Now THAT wasn't the song I was expecting with your title! LOL! I love the rainy stormy shot! That is such a "me" shot! I was photographing water towers this week too -- but haven't decided if I want to use it for Sky Watch or hold out for a different color! We'll seeee!
It raining cats and dog here at this time.
Even hail.
3 inches; how could you even see to drive? That shot is great!
Beautiful shot and colors.
Nice raindrops, makes a great photo!
And so Superman turns you on, eh, Carletta?
Great sky watch :)
I do wish it would stop raining here too! Great pictures!
Thx for your kind comment on my blog!
Beautiful sky watch photos! Hope the skies stay clear for your weekend! =)
Too wet even for fish! I can feel your pain, though not quite at the 3" level, I'm happy to say :)
The weather this year is just amazing everywhere.. I don't think anyone knows what to expect. Have a great weekend
Very nice pictures.
this is a great set of photos.
Yes those were some tall mason jars and they make the best pink Lemonade
Neat pictures. From the rain to the clear sky. Pretty neat. Mike
A great visual comment on the weather! Then great clearing skies.
Nice.
Nice shots, I especially like the one from the window with rain on it. Happy SKF!
I love rainy shots out of car windows! It's nice to see the difference after cleared :)
Love these sky pictures!
I wish we had some of that rain!!

Your SW post had a nice music to go along with. :D I enjoyed visiting your blog and you have great shots.
For the moment I have the sky in the first picture every day since weeks ! Water tanks would be more than full, lol ! Very nice pictures !
Great pictures all of them . Particularly liked the one shot through the windshield .
Thanks for stopping by .
Hope you enjoy your weekend.
What's a bit of rain between friends - especially when you can utilise it for some nice photography?
What a wonderful collection of skies! I like the one with the raindrops on the windshield. Very cool.
Hi Carletta, Loved your SkyWatch photos and thanks so much for visiting my first Skywatch. ~ Lynn
