I walked out of my apartment this morning to go to work and the light from the sun hit a tree west of Ridgepointe that made it stand out. We had several days of hard freezes just over a week ago and the tree lost it leaves. As the sun hit it, it was a dramatic contrast to the clouds behind it.
Once I got home tonight from work, the sky really showed the lead of a winter storm that is coming in tomorrow. It's one of the more grey sunsets I've seen in a while.
Here are the photos:
