Last week my honey and I landed in Austria. Coming from the tropics, we've been relishing the white winter wonderland here. (See previous post.)
But I've also been reminded again how the sky can take on such different personalities in different countries.
These are a few captures from yesterday, starting with an amazing sunrise in my brother's back yard in the Vienna Woods.
These next two were take mid-afternoon on country roads outside Vienna looking towards the Styrian Alps.

I hope my blogging friends are
enjoying fine skies with
warmth in their hearts and their homes
this holiday season!

Oh my, what gloriously rich skies! Enjoy the cold!
Stunning...
Wow, so awesomely beautiful! Skies are ever changing canvases, like a kaleidoscope.
Have a wonderful 2013 ~ FlowerLady
that first photograph is my fave'
Holy cow! These photos at extraordinary. One would almost think the sunrise was a forest fire.
Great cropping on the first one. Really nice!
Wow, wow, wow! What stunning photos! My reaction was the same as Andy's - I thought that amazing sky in your first photo looked like a forest fire! I'm glad it was a blazing sunrise instead (and that you're an early riser!) :-) Love how you caught those two birds in flight, along with the one sitting in the tree top.
Vienna - what a wonderful place to spend Christmas (she said dreamily, never having been there but long wishing to go!) How nice that your brother lives there. Enjoy your visit with him, along with the snow and all that beautiful scenery! Happy New Year!
You have such beautiful sky captures and I'm envious:) great shots! My skywatch is here.
Hello Dear Francisca!!!! I've not been by in far too long. The skies you've shared are beautiful. Wishing you and your beloveds, and all beings love and peace and healing as we say goodbye to 2012 and welcome 2013!
Wow, wow!!! Your photos are amazing!!! As some other people commented, I also thought that the first photo was a wild fire. But I'm happier now knowing it was just an incredible sunrise!!! You were lucky to be able to see it.
I'm visiting from Sky Watch Friday.

Nice pictures you show. Wish you a good week-end / Happy New Year :)
Outstanding set of images, just perfect for SWF.
They're all gorgeous and you must be so enjoying the change of climate as well as skies. I'm scrolling through missed posts here, so I'll learn more about your trip as I progress backwards (there's an oxymoron for you).
What a beautiful part of the world to be in now. Those skies look like they're on fire! Happy 2013 and thanks for your visits.
