Astoria, Oregon sky
This is from the archives, taken on a fine April day from the famous and beautiful Astoria bridge over the Columbia River.
So many photos, in just three years of digital. I think I’ll never run out of things to post. Visit Skywatch Friday for more skies around the world. Weekend Reflections always features a highly creative set of photos, and visit Scenic Sunday for more scenegasms.
I’ve tagged this Best Post of the Week. It’s a keeper.

Absolutely beautiful! What a wonderful endless blue sky and the clouds are so pretty.

Ah … this stunning view takes my breath away and is PERFECT for all three memes! I relate to your comment about having so many photos you’ll never be able to share them all and think that’s why I often share mosaics and publish on multiple blogs. LOL Iβm participating twice this week:
Vistas after Monday’s Storm
Clear Southern California Skies
Hugs and blessings,

Fantastic capture! Love those blue skies and the reflections on the water are breathtaking! Plus, I love Astoria! Like you and Storyteller, I have more photos than I could ever share, but it surely is fun!
Have a great weekend, Sara!!

I feel like I could just slice through the middle using Harry Potter’s broomstick. Such a clear reflection of a totally beautiful sky.

Outstanding photo. I like the way the blue deepens in intensity across the sky…and those clouds are awesome.

Awesome wide angle shot. It makes me feel like I’m flying a few inches above the smooth surface of the water…
