I experimented taking sky pictures in mid-October. I have a long way to go before I take one as gorgeous as this. I love how the sun gives a unique quality to each one of the clouds.
I hate to disturb such a serene picture, but I wanted to alert people that in today's HuffPo, Al Franken has an alarming article on how the U.S. FCC is now making rulings that threaten net neutrality for getting sites like this one on mobile broadband devices. The FCC is also not banning the "paid prioritization" that could let corporate blogs buy the fast lane, putting our sites in the slow.
The outcry from independent websites was crucial yesterday in improving the FCC ruling. But we need to stay alert and inform each other as new threats come up. We need a community of Paul Revere web bloggers.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love winter sunrises and sunsets. It's lovely that the sky gives us such color in such a decidedly un-colorful season. Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shot!
ReplyDeleteLove those winter sunsets even though I dislike winter. Something about the lighting or maybe the starkness of the trees that does it.
