March 2016 - Skyscapes           Page 1 of 5

The project this month was photographs of skies - a project we last undertook 4 years ago. Quite often, our photographs are taken during far flung travel. This time a remarkable number came with the comment "I took this from my window at home". We gained a lot of pleasure, as well as knowledge, from these pictures and hope you do too.
