Predawn Sky over the Pines

Photo of the Day 218/365

This photo was taken earlier in the year as I was on an early trip to work. The sky was very pretty and the colors in the clouds was just magnificent. i had to try to get the photo with the pines in the front. I tried my best to hide the power tower behind one of the pines but sometimes, they can't be avoided.

Mansard Roof of "The Abbey"

Images Exposed Daily Photo Challenge

Wednesday Design: This photo, from my archives, was taken in Cape May, NJ. The building is a well-known one in that area called "The Abbey". I've taken a number of photos of this building, but I think this one, to me represents the "Victoriana" of it. The town, in general, truly embraces the Victorian era and this building is a good example.

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.

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.

    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.
