We had a little rain storm yesterday and as it is clearing out this morning the sun behind the clouds made some silhouettes. Anyway, happy Sunday to all!

Sunday is my Friday, I am ready for my weekend to start! I hope everyone had a great weekend.

#1 Looking at the hill across the way.

The tree is a Eucalyptus. Palm trees and a few old Oak trees on the horizon.

The blue and black always are best match and combination.

#2 Orange and blue clouds

It was a deeper red a few minutes ago. I had to find the camera, no disk in it. Grab disk out of computer, get coat and shoes on. By the time I got outside it was still colorful though.

Maybe it’s a little late but still, there is only beauty.

  True, you know what I did the other day? I went on a hike and forgot to put the disk in. lol

      I have no clue what you are talking about, I keep getting younger with each year. 😉 Really though I do things like that all the time.

        I will pray every second for you. It seems like there are the symptoms in you. Don’t have a clue fr?m something clear is a huge sign.

#3 I have a 270 degree view.

I am just slowly panning.

… and then provide beautiful works for me to watch.

#4 I love these two trees.

The pine tree was a charlie brown Christmas tree years ago. It is now around 30 foot high. The pepper tree was planted around the same time. They both came in one gallon pots.

They look friendly and get along with each other…

  I planted them about 10 feet apart. I was hoping they wouldnt be too crowded. I was thinking the pine would grow faster and taller than the pepper. But that pepper is keeping up.

#5 Golden rimmed clouds

We got snow in our mountains yesterday, I might take a drive up Monday or Tuesday.

I hope you have a great week!

The best part of looking up is to see the blue sky. I haven’t seen the blue sky more than two times since 2019 began.

Your photography skills are great, and I think you should teach this skill to others.

  Thank you so much, wow, what a compliment and great idea. Something to ponder…. I loved teaching oil painting. Thank you again.

    Maybe do a video on how to do simple oil painting, then we could start a challenge lol.

      I have a fear of being on the other side of the camera, I stop what I am doing and give that deer in the headlights look when a camera is turned on me. I wish I could.

        I could get someone to shoot it with just my hand and a brush. lol.
