October 23 SkyEast, West and South skies here are mostly overcast today, but I did find a spot of blue looking across the street to the Northwest. We're in for some rain later this evening, I believe. It hasn't been cold enough, yet, for the leaves to show much change in color; here in central Arkansas they're still mostly green. I did spot a branch of dogwood in the back garden next door that had some beautiful color and got a photo, but no sky was showing, so that's a post for another time.
Nice to see a tree starting to change color with a lovely blue sky and wispy clouds for a backdrop. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Sky Watch!
pretty colors i love fall leaves the sky never disappoints
ReplyDeleteAutumn, beautiful colors.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot.
I was in SW Missouri 1-1/2 weeks ago, and the trees looked about like yours do now. They were hoping for frost to add some color, but don't know if they got it yet. We got our first last night.
ReplyDeleteI like your little patch of blue.
Welcome back, Pat! I've missed you! Love the shot with the colors... We don't get much of that at all down my way.
ReplyDeleteLovely, just a blush of color on the trees. Looks very nice against the sky.
ReplyDeleteNice sky photo
ReplyDeletebeautiful autumn snap. happy skywatching.

ReplyDeleteI like this picture and how you tell that you looked for a spot of blue. Over here our native trees are also still green or slighty coloring and our americans (such as the Northern red oak) already have lost all their leaves. Have a nice SWF and weekend !
ReplyDeleteHi Pat thanks for your visit. Your photo is lovely and shows real autumn weather! I got the idea of "This too will pass.." from Dina in Jerusalem. It's good to know that bad things will pass.
ReplyDeleteGreat sky watch post, the colors are fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThe blue of the sky is so beauutiful :)

ps Have you ever heard of letterboxing? With your ubber stamps I htought you may have?
Your leaves look like they're just starting to turn. Beautiful colors.
ReplyDeleteYou have a bit of Autumn foliage in there. I am envious.
ReplyDeleteA pretty little patch of blue! We could use some of that rain here in NJ. Happy SWF. :)
ReplyDeleteHere in the very temperate climate of the San Francisco Bay area, we don't get many of these fabulous fall colors "Louis" is finding around the blogosphere. Nice SWF post, Pat!
ReplyDeleteHey, Pat, welcome back to Skywatch! Looks like your seasonal change is a little behind ours.
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful. I feel like I could touch those clouds.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful blue skies! Love days like this:) Mine is up HERE. Hope to see you there! Happy SWF!~
ReplyDeletePat: I do see some color happening against that blue sky. Up here in Ohio we are in all different stages of color.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your wishes and I'm glad you are back.
Wonderful composition to include a lot of details of the fall leaves as well. Happy Sky Watch Friday.
ReplyDeleteGood Photo For SWF!
ReplyDeleteHey Pat, love the combination of colors in your photo.
ReplyDeleteYou're ahead of us in Okieland, very nice colours
ReplyDeleteGreat colors! We already had the autumn colors and are waiting for the winter to come! Greeting from Finland! :)
ReplyDeleteYou have got almost the whole spectrum here!
ReplyDeleteA little bit of blue can promise much - or be saying goodbye.
ReplyDeletebeautiful fall picture. Loved it. Happy SWF
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous fall sky. BJ
ReplyDeleteVery pretty... Because we don't have many trees left, we don't get to see the pretty fall colors until we go out of town... my favorite time of year, btw!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting Prairie Visions!
Oh my it's really very pretty. I am in Oklahoma so we don't get a real dramatic change at all.
ReplyDeleteI love the blue sky and also just the hint of a little fall color.
It's very lovely.
My #3 SWF is here.

Happy SWF:-)
Very nice being from Texas I really haven't seen the fall leaves very many times.
ReplyDeleteWatching the trees change colour at this time of year is a wonderful pastime. Seasons come and go as do pretty skies, always something to look forwad to in mother nature's ever changing display.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your view of the sky and your kind comments on my post earlier.
It's beautiful shot and nice color!
ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty shot. I enjoyed the story behind it. :)
ReplyDeleteI never top missing that change of color in the fall. You managed to get a very lovely little patch of blue sky for us here.
ReplyDeleteTrees are farther past here in the Great Lakes region. Great contrast in your shot! Wonderful...thanks for sharing!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have enough colour in this shot too and a nice balance of cloud and blue.
ReplyDeleteLovely fall colors peaking through against a beautiful blue. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteCheers
Just a hint of colour as your leaves begin to change. It really makes a great contrast with the blue of the sky. Have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteMy SkyWatch is at Views From My Camera
