Photo of the Day 9/366

Old Tree and Grass in the Snow

I took this photo over this past weekend. We received our first "real" snowfall in about 2 years.  I was out for a walk, trying to find something photogenic. The sky was still that solid gray with no hints of blue breaking through or of any sunset colors - just steel gray skies. There were a few darker patches but nothing that would fit my normal liking - so I found this scene by the road. It does have a "Wyeth" feel to it, which I like, so I'm pretty happy with it.

Patterns in Nature

Images Exposed

Daily Photo Challenge

Tuesday Art

This photo, from my archives, shows the simple patterns I found while out on a walk. I categorized it as art and not nature or closeup because of the patterns and artistic swirls that nature provided. I could picture an abstract artist creating something like this and nature did it for me - so for me, it's art.

Red Tinged Clouds over the Trees Photo of the Day 345/366 I took the photo last week on the way home. It was a wonderful sunset sky and I couldn't pass up taking a number of shots while it was available. These clouds with the red edges from the setting sun were a wonderful sight over these trees just behind the rolling field in the foreground. A nice evening sky for sure.

    Photo of the Day 307/365  Autumn Colors on Display by the Creek This photo was taken last weekend on our mini-vacation. We were on our way home and happened to find a pull-off - in the rain - and I took some photos by this creek. The colors just seemed to pop in the damp drizzly weather but the camera couldn't quite capture the bright colors. I didn't want to over-edit it but this is close to what I experienced that moment.

Tracks into the Sunset Photo of the Day 342/366 This photo was taken last evening on the way home from work. I took a number of photos and could not quite get the sun peeking through  the clouds. This is the closest I got. I love the colors in the sky and the reflections in the railroad tracks. I've taken this scene before, but it always makes me think of life moving on and on, rolling into the sunset of life - as I get older, those thoughts become more frequent.
