Sunset over 2011/ SkyWatch

Like the sun in this photo, 2011 is almost gone...

And 2012 is nearly here!  (And yes, we do have snow. Fortunately for my husband and me, it started to snow in earnest a couple of hours AFTER we arrived home from our trip to Upstate New York.)

    Very nice, I like the contrast between the warm colors and texture of the and the cool tones of the woods and snow.

    It was quite the storm!
    We have snow on top of ice. It was hard going.

    Glad you arrived safely!

    glad the snow let you get home before it started, and you are so right, 2012 is hovering right in front of us

    A beautiful photo for the end of what for many was a stormy year. Will you please find us a calm dawn shot to start 1012?
