When passing by my church's bell the other evening, I looked up into the still bright sky and found a tiny moon showing amidst some criss-cross cloud patterns. (It's at about 11 o'clock above the bell.) The image found its way into my camera, of course. The bell reminded me of a megaphone and thus this post's title was born.
Sky Watch Friday is hosted by Tom Wiggers at Wiggers World. I invite you to visit his site to see sky photos from all over the world. Thanks, Tom!

That's certainly a criss-cross sky..
Thank you for being a part of Sky Watch this week, your post and comments are much appreciated.
Tom ;O)
Love the composition in this photo! Very nicely done.
That's a wonderful, wonderful shot!
Great shot! I can almost hear the bells ringing!
Happy SWF! We had the sky up there, all speckled with stars, and we used to lay on our backs and look up at them, and discuss about whether they was made or only just happened... mine's up too hope you can drop by.
There are some interesting things going on in that sky, and it does look like someone is 'speaking up'.
Great shot. Happy SWF..and happy weekend!
great idea and post.
I love how the bell is in the corner of the photo as well as the moon. It is lovely to see things through someone elses eyes.
WOW I've never seen criss-crosses like that before. Great photograph also including the bell! It rings "time" :)
A unique shot!
Good capture and clever play between the words and image!
For Sky Watch over at San Francisco Bay Daily Photo, we have a dance between the moon and the fog at midnight.
I love that photo. At first I thought they were contrails. And the bell in the corner adds a lot.
We can you proclaiming the sky to be beautiful!
Beautiful sky. I like the cloud detail and the perspective.
Beautiful and a good idea too!
Beautiful shot!
Nice weave of clouds!

Please drop by if you have the time. Thanks!
Very clever photo and post!
Great shot!
Nice very nice! I like that bell.
And the the little bitty moon.
That is a fascinating sky - so much happening. Great SWF image.
i'm glad to hear you have been to my island!
very cool shot - love all the trail traffic in this one.
thanks for visiting mine! Happy SW :)
Loud and clear for sure, many little roads going on in that sky shot
Beautiful shot of the bell against the sky :)
Have a good weekend!
Nice to see some blue sky. Good shot.
Nifty photo. I love the bell in the corner seeming to ring the clouds into the sky... and the moon so small in the distance.
Nice pic of the sky. I probably wouldn't have noticed the moon. It blended in so nicely with the clouds in the sky.
Thanks for coming by my blog. I think the cliff was on Lake Norfolk. If I remember right I can see the bridges over the lake across the way. I wasn't driving and was sitting in the back of the van so I am not a hundred percent sure.
beautiful photo!
Have a great weekend!
Liked the bell in the shot.
Very interesting photo for SWF. The bell really made us paid attention to it. Have a nice weekend.
Thats a great photo and the sky is sending a message down to us all with that cross and church bell.
A very tiny moon in that blue sky, what a special catch !
Wow.... Fantastic shot.
Be blessed!

Original and great! :)
Speaking up definitley sky. Very odd coice of sky.
Yes!! That was beautifil!
Very clever. Good eye. MB
Really cool sky! :D Good shot!
Pat: Nicely shown and a great story of what to see.
That is really beautiful.
'Now hear this!'
The patterns are an odd feeling. So much going on in the sky and we can only see traces of it. I like this picture with your thoughts very much. Made me stop and think for a little, I like that!
The bell seems heaven bound towards the little pin-prick of moon. Great shot!
Pat, that is a terrific shot. I love the bell and the contrails!!! Awesome!
Very cool.
Guess there have been times we all wonder if God can hear us. Or maybe really we are the ones who aren't listening.
nice picture
A nice perspective for Sky Watch.
Wonderful shot!
Have a nice weekend.
nice pic
I really like this shot! Good job! The only picture of the moon I can get is during the day.
very nice camposition and idea:) well done!

Yeah--a fun photo! You're observant...nice image.
Ha! Fabulous!
I love the title. Very creative! You must live near an airport or air force base -- that is a multitude of contrails!
What a beautiful message, Pat!
@gmailYour composition is very striking, Pat. Was it a very windy day or is that from planes - criss-crossing like that would be quite dangerous.
Thank you for visiting my blog. To answer your question: Australia has probably 4 icons, two natural and two man-made. This is the Sydney Harbour Bridge which was engineered by J. J Bradfield and opened in 1932. Hence, my calling it a "depression icon".
Have a good weekend!
