A Rare & Scientific Sky Watch Friday ...

These trees are ours. They border the north side of our 3.22 acres. The dirt belongs to a guy named Steve, who rents it out to a guy named Nathan. Nathan just harvested his wheat and what you see here, the soil, is all glacial debris that has traveled from Canada with the glaciers. It's very handy to be married to a Scientist.

A simple blue sky without clouds is rare here on The Prairie. Check out Sky Watch Friday where rare can sometimes be the norm ... or not.

  3. Laurie, your photos are going to be in a book one of these days. If you made a book of postings like this one, imagine the joy of children learning about geography AND geology AND history, all from your photos (& Ron's words)! Much better than dry old maps!

  4. Beautiful colours - the mist/fog is a bonus. I like the exquisite, golden soil too;)

  5. A beautiful view you have there, the field and trees poised between autumn and winter. The fog layer adds a dream-like quality. Lovely photography.

  6. Hi Laurie, I like the way your photo is cut in segments by ground, mist, trees, and sky. My eyes are drawn to that misty middle layer.
