The last days have been stormy, we got a dark sky with thunderstorm and plenty of rain, that  is urgently needed for agriculture and human use, of course. I was happy to see some rainfall, but at the same time, this situation reminded me how difficult it was in Germany during the winter: so many dark weeks with rain or snow and temperatures below zero. Today, the sun is back, and as the countdown for the festive season has begun, lights will be switched on soon in our town. Magic of light

I have been working on a photograph series about skies for a couple of years now, I think I have enough of them to show you the result, my Skies gallery on Fine Art America. Most of the pictures (but not all) were taken in the autumn or winter: here in Spain, it is the best season for colourful skies.  No, I cannot offer any super moon: it was too cloudy, and the next night, the moon did not look like bigger than a normal full moon (at least my impression as non-specialist), so I did not take any picture ;-)   Sky in Fuengirola (Andalusia) Sunset at Mar Menor (Murcia) Sky near Almoharin (Extremadura)   Sunset in Torremolinos (Andalusia) Sunset in Torremolinos (Andalusia) Dawn at Manga del Mar Menor (Murcia)    Sky and countryside near Olvera (Andalusia)  Sky and countryside near Olvera (Andalusia)

On Sunday, the clocks went back! I always love this special weekend with an extra hour to sleep. And it is still so warm at the moment that you can buy your chestnuts (typical winter street food here) and eat them on the beach! Chestnuts on the beach
