Winter Sunset Across the LAKE

Fall and winter gives the most colorful skys. This was an unusual night when dark clouds dropped in on top of the sunset. The layers with the trees makes this more than just another sunset.

Amaryllis Red

There is nothing as glorious as watching the Amaryllis bulb open. Each bulb can give 2-3 stems and atop each stem opens 5 impeccable blooms spanning 5-6 inches each. This year's choice was a deep ruby red as luxurious as wine. My challenge is to nurture this bulb and hope that I can have it rebloom to this glory again.
