I am still way behind on posting my sky photos. These are from the last half of July
This is a neighborhood photo showing a front blowing through.
A sunset photo looking west from our neighborhood greenbelt.
A drone photo about 40 meters over our house looking west from Tulsa.
I was on a bike ride on a trail I hadn’t used in a long time. It’s closed, for repairs. It looks okay to me!
A view from a bridge across the Arkansas River looking north. To the right is a complex of buildings that used to be the Oral Roberts Hospital and Medical School. They are now regular office buildings. The high rise to the left is the Muskogee Creek Nation River Spirit Casino.
Here’s a closeup of the Casino from the bike trail around the riverside of the complex.
And from the same trail only a couple miles north is a view across the Arkansas River to Turkey Mountain.
And July’s Full Buck Moon. I love moon photos. I have hundreds of them.
And this is a drone shot that I modified by having a program called Dynamic Auto Painter using a modernist acrylic techniques. It’s not AI. DAP has been around a long time before AI ever showed up. I kind of like how it turned out.
I am linking to Skywatch Friday.
…Alan, you certainly have assembled a diverse collection of sky shots, they are gorgeous.
Great moon shot!
Your moon shot seems so close it feels we could land on it! Wow, all these captures are brilliant. The reflections on the tall building is especially creative. What would the sky be without occasional clouds.
Beautiful collection of photos!
The top one looks a bit ominous, like a storm is coming, have a nice weekend.
The casino looks really impressive reflecting the beautiful sky. Nice one!
I like the clouds reflected in the glass building.
Stunning series of photos!
Wonderful shots.
Beautiful collections of sky shots.
Love the closeup of the casino! I hope birds don’t crash into it though.
I think that AI for pictures has a lot in common with the older apps. Traditional programs use a series of macros to come up with a desired result. I’m sure AI incorporates a similar series of macros and combines them with another series so that you get results faster. The biggest problem with AI for photography is that humans are human, and ask for things that others find unacceptable, even evil. The ability to magnify our lower impulses can be a dangerous thing.
Of course, the fact that developers have used copyrighted material is another example of human weakness, and we blame AI for it.
Some wonderful sky photos. The casino is very large. I’m guessing it’s a casino and hotel?
Indeed your sky captures are this week fantastisc again. Most I like the view over the river.
Thank you for sharing and for hosting.

Gorgeous collection of sky photos, Alan! That reflection of the clouds on the glass casino building is particularly striking, and the crisp shot of the full Buck Moon is fantastic.
