How to use sky in a sentence?

  1. Le Coq:

    I'm kind of a walking photographer, i love exploring new places. One day I was taking a break during an excursion in the Broceliande forest, looking for the best place to settle, when I discovered a small clearing with a tree without leaves. I stayed for hours looking around, taking some pictures and I found Le Coq lying down under the tree. The tree's branches were rising as if to touch the sky.

  2. Jeff Andrews:

    As we've started to become more advanced in our instrumentation, our technology and our ability to mine data, we've found that stars exist in more structures than clumps, they often form these streams across the sky. Although we've known about these for decades, we're starting to find hidden ones.

  3. Judson Mitcham:

    I don't see how anyone could fail to be troubled and moved by the stockade, with its deadlines, escape tunnels and Providence Spring, that subtext of such clean, well-kept grounds is chaos and human limitation, and I can't walk across the stockade field without feeling challenged and defeated by its awful irony. Even the sky looks different from there.

  4. Paul Sciarra:

    We don't have the problems of congestion in the sky because we've got another axis to work with.

  5. Crispin Odey:
