These are lovely photos. My favorites are the different kinds of trees with the blue sky behind, and the very last one with all the reflections in the window.

Beautiful photos! Stunning! Thanks for stopping by today. I didn’t realize that “happily retired gal” and “small reflections” were one and the same!

When I think of California, I usually think of sun and a blueish haze. Since CA had stormy and rainy weather recently, my focus is of stormy and gray. But a rough hewn beauty is the result. The sky is beauty, and perhaps you were happy that the drought was mitigated, so the whole picture is a positive one…

Beautiful photos. I take a lot of sky photos. During the winter I can’t resist snapping away when I can actually see blue and sun.

Those are indeed some dramatic skies! I hope it’s drying up a little for you over there. My husband has been out there all week and I’m hoping he doesn’t bring any of the wet weather with him 🙂

what a lot of clouds, I hope it doesn’t mean bad weather. I went out in a boat with my brother, the waves became very rough and we came home early.
