On the first day of our holiday in the south-west of France we went to the beach of Messanges. We all got wet because the waves of the Atlantic Ocean were strong and came suddenly. The sky was overcast. Later that week the weather was really bright and sunny!I loved those white clouds in the perfectly blue sky. The last photos were taken in a village near Messanges.

Sky Watch is hosted by Klaus, Sandy, Ivar, Wren, Fishing Guy & Louise

Wil......those pictures make me want to drive down to the coast.
We are 70 miles from the Gulf of Mexico. I usually go down to Destin,Florida with my daughter and Grans in late March every year. I'm ready after looking at your photos!

The skies were pleasant over France when you were there. I LOVE the ocean. I grew up in an ocean town but now live inland near the Great Lakes.

A nice set of photos for SkyWatch Friday. As one who is always interested in what other people do, and looking for ideas, I think I found some here. I just have to remember it and at my age that is no small feat.

Oooh, perfect blue sky is right :) I love the overcast one too, though - the ocean looks so moody. I might get to travel to France this summer and your pictures are making me more and more excited about the possibility!

Wil, that second shot with the great lit uop cloudbank is wonderful!

Hilda said...

I'm glad the weather changed while you were there. Wonderful blue skies and the fluffy clouds are lovely! Happy Sky Watching!

Mojo said...

That's definitely an angry looking sky in the first shot, but it has a certain forbidding beauty to it anyway.

The other two make me long for warmer weather!

Dewdrop said...

I am loving your cumulus clouds! Great collection of shots!

Unknown said...

Great shots Wil, if you like skies like your second shot, then you'd love Oklahoma!

Unknown said...

Whenever I'm near a beach I like to watch the waves come in: rain or shine.
