A Friday ritual. A single photo capturing a moment. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
If the sight of the blue skies fills you with joy,
if a blade of grass springing up in the fields has power to move you,
if the simple things in nature have a message you understand,
Rejoice, for your soul is alive.

{This Moment} is a ritual found on Soule Mama which was introduced to me by Sarah-Jane of Samuel Michaels Photography. If you find yourself touched by a Moment and would like to participate, post your picture on a Friday and leave your link in the comments section.
Today’s moment is dedicated to my clever friend Rachel Hoyt and her friend Pokey because that’s who I thought of when I clicked this picture! 🙂
May you be inspired – every day!

Nice blue sky.
This picture reminded me of my childhood you know I used to spent hours together staring out of the window giving names and creating stories out of the various shapes of clouds in the sky.
Lovely pic!
@privytrifles I still love looking at the clouds, but didn’t do the story thing – how interesting.
Love it…. Beautiful capture!
Oh, and I concur!
Amy – Thank you. Going across to see yours 🙂
Love it! It looks like a dinosaur to me!

@DangerousLinda Yes, I see that too – it’s just that I couldn’t get Rachel’s Pokey out of my mind 😉
Yes! A turtle in the sky! I love cloud pictures and still look to see shapes in them.
Terrific moment, Corinne!
@marthaorlando Cloud watching is still one of my favorite pastimes.
I love it! It looks like an arm, my kids would love to play guess the cloud shape with this!
Thanks @JodiAman . It all depends on the interpretation.
I love photographing clouds. This does remind me of a turtle. umm I don’t need anymore competition Corrine!!!! 🙂
@JimBrandano Thanks, Jim. You made my week – even if you were just being nice! 🙂
This realllllyyy does look like a turtle, Corinne.. And I always always click clouds when travelling and I also have this silly habit of trying to look for shapes in them. 🙂
I look for shapes in shadows on the wall too, Punam.
I see a woman with a long dress, holding a baby and running away
@nikky44 I’m trying to see what you see……hmmm…no I don’t see her. But I’m fascinated with your comment.
Nice Corinne. I’ve been accused of having my head in the clouds because I love looking at the sky.
@Myrna I’m an avid sky-watcher too. But no one can accuse me of having my head in the clouds for fear that they’ll have my foot on their behind 😉
So beautiful! It’s amazing to me, sometimes, that we all look at the same sky, even if we’re half a world away!
@femmefrugality That’s something that always amazes me too, Brynne and makes me think of how connected we are.
beautiful to say the least !
@xs2rahulz Thanks, Rahul.
Beautiful sky!

@Nelieta Thanks – it was.
Yey! I saw that one too 😉
@MelissaTandoc Ah – in your part of the world or on my blog? 😉
Dear Corinne,
I have always loved sky photos. When I first saw this a couple of days ago, I could have sworn I saw a dragon in the sky! I thought perhaps it was just my eyes playing tricks because I did look at it at a time when I should have been sleeping. Coming back to comment today, I STILL see a dragon. (LOL) It’s amazing that we all see the same sky, but our interpretations of what we actually SEE can be so varied. Good capture all the same. Thanks for sharing.
I guess it’s all a matter of what we see first, Andy. Sometimes it’s difficult to shake off first impressions 🙂 Thank you for sharing the pic on G+ too.
Gorgeous Quote, Corinne. <3 Xxx Happy Sunday.

@krrobi Thanks.
