SkyWatch Friday / My Neighborhood on Dec. 17, 09









I took my dog and grandson on an early afternoon walk around our neighborhood. It is December 17, 09 and our fall trees are at their prime now. The sky was blue with wispy clouds here and there. We have a lot of Liquid Amber trees and it is strange to me that they are all different colors...some still have some green, some yellow, orange, red and some nearly bare. Fall is my favorite season and I cannot resist taking pictures of the glorious colors!

All oue leaves are gone, so it is lovely tosee your colours.
I've never heard of a Liquid Amber tree, but I love the name.

Magnificent captures, Carolyn! Such gorgeous colors. I love the name of the Liquid Amber tree, too, and I'm not sure I've heard of it before, but it is lovely!

Wishing you a lovely weekend!

It's a beautiful time of the year isnt' it? This is exactly how it is around the northern part of the state too.

Enjoy the weekend.

Amazing colors, they are certainly in their prime. Ours are long gone so it's really nice to see the colors now.

I love the mountains peeking through in the first two pictures. Your leaf colors are great. We hardly have any leaves on our trees; looks like winter here.

Beautiful pictures! All our leaves are gone, so it's nice to see your colours! Greetings from a very cold and wintery Norway!
