Earlier this morning, I drove my husband to the airport. It has been raining all weekend in the Bay Area. Yes, finally, a good pour. The dog has been minimizing his time outside. It has been overcast. It would be light later in the morning and dark earlier by the afternoon, pretty much par for the course as we approach winter solstice in three weeks.

On the drive back, I could not help but get a lift out of the row of resplendent show of color the trees lining Trousdale Avenue, defiant against the backdrop of somber grays and ominous darks. It’s still going to be a great day! And week.
That is a delightful photograph, and indeed some intense colours. I wish you a happy and peaceful Christmas holiday.

oh you are so sweet – well I think you can just drag it off your computer and then upload it into your media file. 🙂
but before you do that – you might want to make your own – I have been messing around with a site called “photofunia” and you just insert photos into their stock images – I have been adding my twist to them with some more processing, but check it out – http://photofunia.com
and just take a screen shot of your creation cos some folks cannot download the program thing…
