Recent Afternoon Clouds, General Trias
This beautiful photograph was taken by my niece, Abrielle, and was sent to me via Telegram App. I really like the Telegram App because it maintains the resolution and quality of the photos that you send over mobile, unlike on Facebook or in Messenger.
Abrielle also shared to me a story that her grade school teacher once told them. That when the clouds in the sky turn to be something like a blanket of little cotton bolls just like that above, it would signify a coming Earthquake. I have never heard of that superstition yet, maybe it's an original from her teacher's town.
Today in the Philippines, and also in India as per my teammates from work, we celebrate Labor Day which remembers and commemorates the heroism or workers in all aspects of the society. May we offer a short prayer and thoughts to our workers, especially to those on the front-lines in this very time.

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Tom. Our prayers will be best for them, it's all we can do aside from not infecting ourselves. Stay safe and Happy Weekend my friend!
DeleteI like the sky, it's very pretty. I never heard that it signifies the coming of an earthquake, I certainly hope not. Have a wonderful evening and stay safe!
ReplyDeleteThat is true Bill! It's very strange for me to hear that too, well we have tons of superstitions here in the Philippines haha. Happy Weekend!
DeleteBeautiful sky shot ~ We would call that type of sky ~ a Mackeral Sky and predicts rain and usually that is the case ~ Thanks for your lovely comments on Thursday ~ always wonderful to connect with heart warming people ~ grateful for meeting you and your awesome photography too!

That is so sweet and touching of you Carol, I really mean it, thank you so much for being a friend :) Now I know what kind of sky this is and I'll share that to my neice too :) Thanks Carol, Happy Weekend!
DeleteThis is a fabulous sky. Abrielle did herself proud.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Jeanie! You are so right! I've always been proud of my niece and her ability to see creativity in a lot of things.
DeleteSo true that in many ways the clouds are like a huge blanket. Beautiful photo, and happy Labor Day!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much my friend! Wishing you a great weekend coming there in the US :)
DeleteCool clouds!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much dear Erika!
DeleteOh! What a pic! Awesome. And what a beautiful name, Abrielle - I´ve never heard that!
ReplyDeleteBut Earthquake sounds scary.
Yes, Labor Day here, too.
The sun is peeking out again, a good sign, my friend, right?
Thank you so much dear Iris and my niece would love your comment so much! (I'll show this to her). It's awesome to know (and I am so late) that it's not just in our country that celebrates Labor Day at May 1st :)
DeleteYes! Sun will always be a good sign my friend :) Minus the heat.
I've never heard that saying about earthquakes. Usually when we have skies like that we will get stormy weather within 48 hours.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty name your niece has :)
Thank you so much dear Margaret! I would love some rain right now but stormy weather is kind of scary, though we usually have those during August and September.
DeleteWow, what a sky ! Beautiful pic !
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Karl! have a great weekend there in Italy :)
DeleteVery, very nice clouds! Stay Safe!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much my friend Paspii! Have an awesome weekend coming!

That is so nice of you Betty, thank you so much! I am so happy to join this week's My Corner of the World and will definitely join again this Wednesday :)
DeleteHi Stevenson. You niece took a great sky there. You're gonna have to keep your own photos up to scratch now if you want to beat that one. I'm waiting for comments on the above post. I can just see the calf. I'm sure someone else will spot the intruder. did the calf make a comment just as you took the picture? LoL
ReplyDeletePhil!!! You gave me a good laugh there haha! Bill did saw it on the first comment HAHA not saying it here though :)
DeleteOh and that is super nice of you! I've always been proud of my niece's eye on taking photos even with her phone, she does a great job! I would have to keep up with her haha
Beautiful skies SQ but I do hope the prediction of an earthquake isn't true, we have many cloud formations like this 😊
ReplyDeleteYou got that right! My niece was even asking me laughingly that why did I share that info that her teacher said! Told her it would lighten up my dear readers and even I found it interesting haha
