Winter Sunset – catching the seasons

[Michael Lerch]

Thanks Ruth!Lots of snow there in the shadows.Its going to be a good spring.

Arizona Sunset#1108

[Ruth Quist]

Michael, nice colors in #1108.  Yes, hoping for a good spring.  Very cold here at present.  Forced indoors.

It really is 07:30 am.

[Michael Lerch]

Yep bring on Olde Sol and start warming up the joint Ruth!  The consequences of  having two 120f+ summers in a row is becoming stark in the Valley. Dead trees abound and are keeping the tree specialists  busy. I’ve noticed..trees in a cluster don’t have dead ones amongst them. Solo trees appear easy victims .   The only tree that should be in front of homes and in city parks is cactus like the saguaro, fast growing palo verde and the mesquite…I’ll give the Upper Sonoran Desert that much. Anything else fails and it’s best to have trees in great shape going in cause they will probably be the only ones surviving if we have a 3rd  120f+ summer .  So here is a sunset  to warm your hands..btw, Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow, heralding 6 more weeks of winter for those inclined  to take advice from a fat and groomed rodent.

Beautiful sunset, Michael! I really like how the clouds look like spiderwebs in a way :) and the colors are magnificent!

 

 

Here is a sunset over Normandy from this summer.

[Michael Lerch]

Thanks and  nice sunset Donatella!..Water and clouds  are always a match.  The line of cloud suggests a front coming through.

The orange spider webs de-evolved in to red fractus over a few minutes.

[Ruth Quist]

Michael and Donatella, such beautiful colors.  Helps my head as I am looking out my window at tons of white stuff.  This time of year, in my neck of the woods, we are anxious to see dirt!  I should go buy some flowers.

Arizona Sunset #1112

[Robert Pearson]

Michael- nothing does not rhyme with orange! Love the soft color.

Selective color.
