I've seen fire and I've seen rain...

I HAD planned on posting some photos with a Christmas theme this morning.  But I bring you a change from our normal Christmas programming...

All day yesterday and all night long was the rain.  This morning....the fire arrived. I don't think I've ever seen the sun hit the trees and bathe them in such a vibrant orange hue before.  A variation on the traditional colors of the season.











JUST what I needed, something to side track me from my mile-long "to do" list.  Okay, we now resume our regular Christmas programming.  Go forth and be-deck your halls!

    Glad I'm not the only one with a mile-long list . . . and I feel like it's just getting longer!

  2. I think your third shot looks particularly artistic with the composition you've used.
