January Theme Day: best photo of the year 2008

I have chosen the most commented photo as the best one. The Skywatch Friday Post of October 17. Happy 2009 to all the CDP bloggers and to all those who have visited this little blog and dropped me a few lines. I wish you all a serene 2009, a year without such menacing clouds looming overhead!

Don't forget to check out other cities participating in January Theme Day!

Oh - you seem to get such bold and unusual clouds where you live! Or maybe you just know how to capture them on film. This is awesome in the true sense of the word.

Wishing you a very Happy New Year! I look forward to seeing more of Trieste and your dramatic skies in 2009.
