Skywatching from the ship.. Skywatch Friday

I was watched the skies a lot while we were on our cruise in July. Nine nights on a cruise ship we did see a lot of sunsets over the water.






On this photo I zoomed in a little closer. My header photo is even closer.

Thanks to the hosting team of Skywatch Friday, Sandy, Wren, Sylvia, Klaus, Fishing Guy and Louise.
Also thanks for stopping by my blog for my Skywatch entry.

    Ships are a great place to see the sky, lots of stars at night (exept Alaska in summer) and great sunsets if you have a few clouds, as you did. Nice shots.

    Great shots of the sunset over the water! One BIG advantage of a boat is nothing in the way of seeing the horizon.
