When we look at the sky, do we really see it?

in #nature6 years ago (edited)

I'm the girl who will break her neck to look at the clouds, notice the stars, always try to catch a sunrise, soak up the sunset and so on. But there are days I forget to NOTICE. I can be looking right at the sky and not notice a single detail and i get so mad at myself becuase the sky is never the same as it was before. It'll never look this exact way again.

I may seem a bit dark from my account photo, but I have a light, sunny side, too. I guess im like the force, that way. Lol

If I ever wreck my car, it'll either be because I was eating a slice of pizza (I do not recommend it), or because I was staring at the sky. I'm really bad for zoning in on the sky at inopportune times but its so calming. You really can find peace in the clouds.

Once you start noticing the beauty in the sky above you - it's almost impossible to stop.

Below are some more pictures I've taken of the sky. They're obviously not professional, and I'm not a photographer at all. I'm just incredibly obsessed with the sky! I have at least 500 pictures of the sky on my phone but I'm only posting a few because... you know... 500 is a tad excessive lol

I absolutely recommend paying more attention to the sky you're under. Today will be the last time it looks exactly the way it does. Enjoy it while it lasts! ♡
When you get in a rush, slow down for a second, look up at the sky, and take a breath. It'll make your day a little better ♡♡♡

If there is a way to show me some pictures of YOUR sky in the comments, i would absolutely love to see them! Or if you have some on your account, drop a link!

I'm the same way! A lot of the time I feel like people think I'm dumb because of my enthusiasm\appreciation for the sky, stars, sun sets, nature, the moon. I'm just so taken aback by it all. The vastness, the things we don't understand about it, the possibilities, the beauty, and that it all exists in the first place. It would be so much easier for none of it to exist at all........I live my life in "awe".

I liked this post, people definitely take a lot of shit for granted.

You are very welcome too!!

Yes we do take so many things for granted. All of the breathtaking qualities of the earth right before our eyes and we look right through them. The human condition is so sad in some ways. But i too, tend to live my life in awe. Mostly unintentionally lol but it always seems to get me anyway

I too love me some sky photography!

I took these a couple weeks ago :)

These are beautiful!! Thanks for sharing! ♡♡♡
