Skywatching in the Neighborhood

Earlier this spring the winds were high here in Tulsa. I couldn’t fly very far without the drone warning me to bring it down immediately. So this is a barely rooftop shot of some clouds to the west moving in.

I’m happier when I can get to about 50 meters because I can get better photos.

Neighborhood Roofing Project

Back in April there was a roofing crew replacing a roof nearby. They were humping it, rain was coming.

Neighborhood Swan Pond

The neighborhood we live has five different communities. We live in the only non-gated community. The wealthiest neighborhood has a swan pond and we can go look at from the other side of a iron fence. Reminds me of a Dickens novel. Every once in a while we go looking at the swan pond through the fence.

And this is looking west down the street toward a sunset.

So I don’t have to drive anywhere to get Skywatch photos.

I am linking with Skywatch Friday. Come check it out.

    …what a collection of drama! There no way that I could be on that roof!!!

    Some beautiful photos. I especially like #1 and #4. I associate gated communities with unsafe areas. Is it that unsafe in Tulsa that there are so many gated communities all in one area? I always thought Tulsa was a quieter, safer city.

    you live in a really nice street, hope they got the roof finished before the rain, so important to have a water tight house, have a nice weekend.
