Default Vibrant Cloudy Blue Sky

Now I normally take long shots, and my 10-20mm lens sits on my desk. Today I decided to take it out with me( in addition to the 70-200 on my D300) and mounted it on my D80 as I forgot it was HSM and would have worked on my D5000. So here is what it did for me:

Land and Cloud Scapes DSC_2779

Land and Cloud Scapes DSC_2798

Beautiful skies - can you send some of these our way please - it's our first day of spring here.

Now down to the important part - love the rich colour and reflections in your shots. My vote is for no.1 because of composition where you are drawn down those power lines to the pylons and beyond with a vivid sky and white clouds.. Cheers, Bernz

Very vibrant, very colorful skies indeed. The photos turned out very well for the 10-20 mm lens. Congratulations and thanks for sharing.
