Out my Studio Window...

I see FALL has arrived 13 days before Winter will begin...
Different colour leaves... yea!Pretty shades... nothing like the East coast but still pretty...Cloudy skies on Sunday... with a spec of something...A stealth bomber flew over our area.. circling about 5 times... I do NOT live near an air base... so this was VERY strange... what they were doing... I have NO idea... maybe flyovers for various events commemorating Pearl Harbor... it doesn't look real in these photos...
Soaring high in the sky... AMAZING and LOUD!

Speaking of Amazing... and possibly loud screams from the winners of my Ooh la la Giveaway... This weeks winners are...

fall is almost over here as the last gasps of yellow and red cling to the bradford pear trees.

Oh congrats to the winners. I love that bedroom scene, that will be great painted. I am wondering if they were practicing also in that stealth for the Rose Parade coming up? that's only about three weeks away isn't it? They usually have them fly over at the beginning. Your view from you studio is nice with the trees and mountains in view.

I'm in Detroit and last weekend while driving a to friends house there was a stelth bomber overhead. A bit freekie, but we are near Selfridge Military base. I've never seen one fly over though in the 8 years I've live here.
