Winter Tree/Spring Sky

I couldn't resist posting another from the incredible storm-related light show the other day. We might not have gotten all the freak snow everyone was predicting, but we got some gorgeous colored skies.

Judy Williams said...: Oh good lord!! This is even better (well, maybe) than yesterday's. You need to have them both printed on canvas and hang them as a diptych. WOW is all I can say.; February 28, 2011 at 5:46 AM
Judy Williams said...: Oh, by the way. What kind of trees are those? I just love the graceful down turn of the branches/foliage.; February 28, 2011 at 5:47 AM

Shanna said...: We were on the west side, then on the freeway and saw the colors only when we were back in Pasadena.
I'm glad you caught them.
Wow!; February 28, 2011 at 3:12 PM
Laurie Allee said...: Thanks, you guys! I may have to post one more tomorrow -- just because it was such a rare few minutes of light and color and darkness.

Ben, I just pushed up color saturation by about 15%. I didn't change anything or add color. Isn't it grand?; February 28, 2011 at 3:21 PM
alex said...: wow.; February 28, 2011 at 3:23 PM

Mister Earl said...: Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind!; February 28, 2011 at 5:49 PM
who cares what I think? said...: You are so talented, it's disgusting. Great photographers aren't supposed to also be great writers. You are both. I read a bunch of your archives today. Write a novel!; February 28, 2011 at 7:01 PM
Shanna said...: Yes, let's see more...!; February 28, 2011 at 11:07 PM

Auntie S said...: Yes, it is a wonderful, beautiful image...of a tall, slender tree wearing a fabulous dress designed by Mother Nature. That's what I see besides the beautiful colors you captured. Thanks, Laurie!; March 1, 2011 at 3:43 PM
