Well it's time to look skyward! I really wanted to see a hot air balloon, or get a shot of one of the multitudes of helicopters that fly over my house, or maybe just some of those
mammatus clouds we saw a couple of weeks ago. And then I thought perhaps there would be some animal shaped clouds flying over. I did see a lot of birds, for sure! We spend a lot of time looking down and around. Looking up was a bit of fun!
“Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your
eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always
long to return.”

what a great quote from da Vinci! and wow a gingko tree? I don't think I've ever seen one! thanks for showing us!!
Oh, that ghost plane is so cool! I don't think I've ever seen one look like that...great pics!
What a great shot of the crackle and I really like the da Vinci quote,
Nice shots! Your grackle is so saucy!
I don't have grackles here and believe it or not I miss them. They would migrate through where I lived in NJ in the thousands...
Beautiful shots - all of them! That Ghost Plane is something amazing,...but the trees are so cool. So's the birdie!! ;-)
Great capture of the plane and the grackle. I've heard of a gingko tree but never seen one.
Whoops, sorry, I think that's a starling. I always get those mixed up!
wonderful photos! always love vapour trails :)
have a great weekend!
Great pics this week. I thought about clouds but it was gray here so i needed something else. Your quote fits perfectly.
Great post! Love the plane,
Beautiful shots, accompanied by a very nice quote. DaVinci was a very wise man, indeed!
Great pics...I see those planes all the time as I live in line with Tampa but I never thought to think of them as ghost planes. Will really have to watch! And the bird and tree, isn't nature grand! I just love it.
Thanks for the great post.
Wonderful shots - love that ghost plane!
Perfect quote and great pictures
Great shots! It does look like a ghost plane - how does that happen? Interesting that da Vinci said that since man hadn't flown yet. It would be interesting to hear what future he sees today, wouldn't it?
Your pictures all tell a story and are lovely in detail. Wonderful quote to go along with the ghost plane. Fantastic shot!
I love that shot of the starling!
A gingko tree ... how interesting! That ghost plan is really cool! I love your photos.
Such great photos, especially the one of the ghost plane! Our gingko tree is just now getting some small leaves. Such a graceful tree--and hardy too.
And thanks for sharing the wonderful quote from Leonardo da Vinci as well.
You captured some great shots of looking up this week, I like the first one with the lamp post and flower.
Great photos, it is kind of amazing looking up. like the starling.
Love, love the ginko tree! Great shots all the way around.
That plane picture is neat!
