Snowy Park

We continue to get some moisture, both rain and snow, and that's a good thing after the extremely dry winter. For Skywatch Friday, here are some photos from Fox Run Park on Tuesday morning.
The quality of the softly filtered sunlight and the snow melting off the trees was incredible, but very challenging to capture.
There's nothing like a Colorado blue sky after some snow.

Gorgeous captures as always, Al! In spite of being so tired of winter, I still love the snowy trees and blues skies! Hope your week is going well!

I'm so glad to hear you are getting some much needed moisture. I still say you can have ours ... we have broken rain and cold records all over the place this spring. Sigh.

And it's true ... there's nothing quite like the blue Colorado sky after a snowstorm ... another of those things I miss!

Thank you for these wonderful images, which did remind me of home.

Of great joy to breath the air, which surely is much better there, than here.

Please have a good Friday.

Lovely place.
The light in these images is so good.
Just a slight dusting of snow helps.
Very inviting.

Beautiful skies! And good that you are getting some moisture - we are getting too much.

The light and shadows filtering through the trees are lovely! But hard to believe you still have so much snow! ;D
