Transparent building

This “transparent” building was decorating my ride home in Seattle the other day. I love how glass looks on buildings at times like this. Something so simple as glass doing something so magical!

Please visit  Skywatch Friday for magnificent sky photos taken around the planet. Also check out Scenic Sunday, Outdoor Wednesday, SOOC Sunday (straight out of the camera), A Piece of Heaven, Weekend Reflections, and Shadow Shot Sunday 2.

I will be away for a week or so and have scheduled some blog posts for while I am gone. I hope you enjoy them and look forward to sharing some new photos with you from the New York City area when I return.

Burien rainbow

Even a plain old rainbow is worth looking at. March is definitely rainbow month around here. Hope you enjoy this one.

It’s a stretch to say this qualifies for Watery Wednesday, but all that water vapor has to be in the air, right? No water, no rainbow. Other neat places to check out are Scenic Sunday, SOOC Sunday (straight out of the camera), Mellow Yellow Monday, Outdoor Wednesday, Skywatch Friday and Wordless Wednesday. Thanks for visiting here!

Bare trees against the sky

Here’s a pretty little scene for you, even though many trees are still dormant. Signs of spring are around, but the still-bare branches do have their beauty.

As you might know, Google Friend Connect has vanished from all non-Blogger sites. Darn! Please follow this blog on the sidebar at the right with the new Linky Tools. Thank you.

Please visit Outdoor Wednesday, Scenic Sunday, A Piece of Heaven,  SOOC Sunday (straight out of the camera) and Skywatch Friday. Thanks for browsing around here first.

Winter sky

The overlook in Normandy Park, Washington is just a neighborhood road at which you can gaze out at Puget Sound and see the sky. Sometimes the light shines on the water so beautifully. This is what it looked like the other day.

Visit Outdoor Wednesday, Watery Wednesday, Scenic Sunday, A Piece of Heaven, Weekend Reflections, and Skywatch Friday. You’ll be glad you did. And do browse here first if you have a few minutes.

Ice on Coral Bark Maple branches

Just two short weeks ago we had an incredible ice storm, and today it was sunny and over 60 degrees out! I am just being perverse in showing this photo of the Japanese Coral Bark Maple branches coated in the ice—on such a lovely day as today. But I want to have one last (I hope!) look at real winter before we forge ahead into the burgeoning spring.

Bare branches, reflected

There’s a supermarket not too far from me (Renton, WA Winco, for the locals) that has a parking lot that is quite open and on a slope so that it just seems to have more light and sky than your average parking lot. I always look up when I am there, and this time I just loved how the trees and sky were doubled in the car windows. Hope you like it, too.

Bare branches

I took this a month ago but no change in the bare branches has occured yet. Spring is showing a few early hints, but not so you’d really notice. This was taken at dusk at Volunteer Park, close to my favorite haunt, the Conservatory. They’re doing a Wine and Chocolate Tasting for Valentine’s Day, by the way. How romantic!

Snow-covered trees

These trees are in my backyard in Seattle, Washington, and this was taken in this first snowstorm of the season. The one on the left is a magnolia, and the one on the right is a pink dogwood. They will certainly look different in a few months!

Winter tree reflections

One of Seattle’s nice old brick buildings in the Greenwood neighborhood, with the winter tree shapes casting shadows on the building and reflections on the glass. I was driving by, stopped at a red light, and blessedly had time to get the window down and snap the photo. Sometimes you’ve got to be quick! I like the way the sky in the window is almost more important than the real sky, and I’m calling this my Best Post of the Week.

Skywatch FridayOutdoor Wednesday, Scenic Sunday, Shadow Shot Sunday 2, Weekend Reflections, SOOC Sunday (straight out of the camera) new meme A Piece of Heaven, and Blue Monday are all fun places to visit.
