SkyWatch Friday: Remembering Winter to cool off

We've had a lot of gray rainy skies lately and I didn't get any good sky shots this week.

Unfortunately the rain hasn't cooled us off enough to speak of.

Therefore, I thought I'd go to winter shots I haven't used to at least cool myself off visually.

I am so ready for cooler weather I wouldn't even mind if we went straight to winter.

I particularly like the way snow looks against blue skies.

There's even a little blue poking through the next shot.

I always think snowy trees against a blue sky look like the trees have been frosted with icing.

I like the way the trees in the next shot still have some fall leaves as well as a little snow.

I don't know if the sky is really bluer in the winter but sometimes it seems to be a richer blue than during other times of the year.
