A square pastel drawing depicting a night sky, with a yellow waxing gibbous in the middle showing through large, swooping purple-grey clouds. Between the clouds, there is a dark blue sky, and dark silhouettes of trees beneath.

12:36 AM: the moon rose lightlessly behind the clouds, and is just now showing

11:51 AM: is still pushing and pulling, and the sky keeps changing. There is a depth to the air, not quite warm

A square pastel drawing of a bright blue sky, half-covered with a white fuzzy cloud, a few small white clouds and a contrail across the top left corner of the frame.

10:33 AM: that we are due for a storm in the afternoon. We hum, unwilling to form an opinion on the subject, but the wind from last night

A square pastel drawing of a pale blue sky over a turquoise sea. There are a few small, light grey clouds spread out above the ocean, and a veil of white in the distance.

9:19 AM: the ocean over everything else. We are watching small crabs burying themselves into the sand. Our expert thinks

A square pastel drawing of a morning sky, a gradient of bright blue to yellow, with a variety of clouds floating there. There are pale yellow clouds, and a flurry of translucent white above. A few clouds are long, thin, and dark grey.

8:44 AM: the blue of the sky is an intense turquoise at the zenith, almost like it is making up for something. We hear

A square pastel drawing of a sunrise sky, deep, diffuse shades of pink and purple with a few, long purple clouds floating in the lower tier of the frame.

7:58 AM: but the day comes alive that much brighter for the chill in the wind. The sunrise is too quick for how long we waited for it. We blink, and

A square pastel drawing of a twilight sky, a uniform shade of vibrant, dark blue above a path. The path is lit by a street lamp. There are trees in the distance.

6:54 AM: suddenly, early morning mist swallows the sky. Under the streetlights, it is the coldest it has been all night,

October 4th - 5:01 AM

A square pastel drawing of a night sky, mostly clear, dark blue, with a few stars, and long, lighter blue clouds above the horizon. There are dark trees in the distance.

5:01 AM: we think we are only now getting used to the darkness. Our expert is denying their sleepiness while their eyelids are drooping, and

4:28 AM: on a wind that is drying our eyes. Each star has its own halo, and our yawns are getting larger and larger. We long for our bed, but

October 4th - 3:41 AM

A square pastel drawing of a dark turquoise night sky, full of bright stars. There are puffy, grey clouds peppered across the frame.

3:41 AM: we feel lightheaded looking up. We only notice the clouds by the way they block the starlight now, rushing between our fingers

October 4th - 2:04AM

A square pastel drawing of a night sky split in two, deep dark blue, almost black clouds opening up to a starry sky, a lighter shade of blue mixed with purple.

2:04 AM: the stars are a bright cacophony of bells, and as they multiply in the sky,

A square pastel drawing of a very dark blue-grey sky over some green trees, layers of heavy clouds stacked on top of one another.

October 4th - 2:24 PM

A square pastel drawing of a cloudy sky, a blur of dark blue-grey tangled up together.

A square pastel drawing of a cloudy sky, a pale grey, with a bit of a peach tint, and tall, voluminous, dark grey clouds rising into the sky. There are small dark clouds scattered, and long, thin ones in the background.

1:13 PM: under the pooling clouds, with the sense that our expert was perhaps correct in their predictions. The air smells

October 3rd

We report while the wind rises: the clouds are getting stretched to the width of the sky, brass and gold from the stormy sunset. In the east, nothing remains of the light already, but the rain is moving in from there, slowly enough to let the day wane in peace.

October 2nd

We report: civil twilight, the sun is just beneath the horizon line. The cloud cover is precipitating nightfall, one drop of ink for the hour to turn blue. It is humid like it should be raining, like a word hanging on the tip of our tongue. We stay past nautical twilight.

October 1st

We report about this crumpled October sky: the light is coming out dim and yellow through the parallel wrinkles. The clouds are painstakingly ironing themselves out with windy strokes. This is one of many of our mornings when the waking up is still around to be done.

September 30th

We report: we do not always know what we are looking for in the sky. Something new, probably, a revelation, or a secret, a shape only we were good enough, fast enough to see. Sometimes, something familiar, a memory or a story that we have heard before. All of it at the same time.

September 29th

We report during a slow burn of a sunset: first, a yellow glow on the horizon, and then the wisps of gold streaking through the sky. By the time we went out to see more, the artefacts of the sun were holding the whole thing together, delicate architecture built over an hour.
