The Sky's the Limit

When you wake up in the morning and walk outside, what is the first thing you look at? Do you notice the trees or the grass? Do you look at the flowers or your neighbors houses? All these things are what you look at, but they can all look completely different depending on the lighting and the weather. All of it is dependent on one thing; the sky.

The sky during the day can vary greatly. Some days there is not a cloud in sight, and when you look up all you see is a dome of bright baby blue all around you. Other days, are the complete opposite, when it turns all dark and cloudy sometimes to the point where you’re not even really sure where the sun is. Then there are the days in the middle, which are my favorite, when there are puffs of white mixed in with all that blue. During these days you can stare at the clouds and, if you have a big imagination, find different shapes of random things that you may see.

The sky at night is a completely different scene that also depends on where you are. If you live in a city with a lot of light pollution, the sky might be a little boring; just black, with a few stars here and there. If you are in more rural areas though, you can see an infinite amount of stars upon stars. If you look for them, you can find different constellations such as the big dipper, and if you watch carefully, you could even make a wish on a shooting star. The moon is also something interesting to look at; you can see when it is full or when it is just a tiny crescent. Some nights the moon may even change its color.

The sky is an amazing thing, and it often times can even influence how your day goes. Naturally, people are usually not as outgoing when it is gloomy out than when it is bright outside. Some people even may become slightly depressed during the winter months when everything turns all grey and brown outside. On the other side, during the summer while there is so much color, people are most likely happier and more willing to go outside and do more things. Everything that you see can change images completely depending on what is going on in the sky. (404)
