This was the view outside my sunroom window on Monday. The day before it was pouring the snow down and I was out in twenty degree weather trying to take snowflake shots. What a wonderful difference a day makes. Of course it changed right back the following day to snow flurries and overcast skies and we haven't seen blue skies since. For me this is a wonderful reminder of what a really beautiful winter day can look like.For more Skywatch please click here.
How wonderful to see blue skies! The sun is shining here, but the skies are still hazy. Your wintry scene is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteProof that these storms move very quickly. What a gorgeous shot my friend. :) I love it :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful winter shot.

Wow, the light in that photo is fantastic! You did a great job of capturing it, too!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful big fluffy white clouds against lovely blue skies! They look a lot like mine if I ignore the snow on the ground where you are ;-)
ReplyDeleteIt's a lot warmer than 20 degrees here.
Hugs and blessings,
This is what I believe after the storm there is always beauty that comes out from it. And this is one of the example, awesome scenery!

i can never tire of this scene: blue skies and snow on the ground.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors, beautiful sky, beautiful landscape.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment.

Great blog you have! Love your macro-photos, they are really great!! That ice on the tree, its stunning!
ReplyDeleteWhat a charming contrast between the deep blue of the sky and the white of the snow! Very beautiful image, Carletta!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you, Carletta.
ReplyDeleteBlue sky, white ground, what more could you want? Perfect! Lovely shot.
Your winter day is very pretty, but I would like to sunny skies for awhile. We have 8 inches of snow today in Texas. That is unheard of.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, clear Winter sky.

Beautiful, Carletta!
ReplyDeleteGod sends us just enough sunshine during the dreary winter months to keep our hopes up.
I love everything about this photo! (I saw it the day you posted it but my hands weren't working to do more than click and scroll.) I even downloaded it for future use as wallpaper. :) Hope you don't mind. The focal tree in the center has so much character and the view is what I wish I could see when I look out my windows.
