Dark Trees, Bright Sky

On a recent hike in Sesame Canyon, I thought this photo of a bright sky with nearby tall, dark pine trees might make an interesting capture for Skywatch Friday.

    I can understand the heat of the summer can be too much and even awful. I myself do not like when it's more than 25 C pluss :o

    Love these pics! Especially the first one -it would be a site I would want to paint.
