There's a tree along the Lafayette Reservoir that
is decorated by locals with ornaments every Christmas.
It never fails; they hang ornaments of all shapes and sizes.
Here are two that caught my eye
against the late afternoon winter sky...

Lovely, a different perspective and the last of xmas!!
That is such a nice community thing to do.
When our grandchildren were little and all assembled in our house on the mounten, we had a ritual where everyone, large and small, took a glass bauble and hung one on each little spruce and fir tree so that none of them were sad to be missing out at christmas.
Because you have come,
I have hung these ornaments
to give you delight.
Chilling grey sky!
Delightful discovery ... kewl capture! People do the same thing here and often the bulbs remain hither and yon for a long time.
Hugs and blessings,
Very pretty. I like to hang ornaments in outside trees. Love the blue sky too. MB
That's a lovely thing to do and what a terrific shot it makes for the day! Soft, lovely colors! Have a great weekend!

What a simple yet gorgeous photo. Reminds me of something I pass by driving down to the shore in the winter (visible, thus, only to those few who can appreciate the shore in the winter)...some people put up a christmas tree on a tiny little platform in the middle of a small lake....
How pretty!
Happy weekend.
Nice photo - and a great idea!
Lovely ornaments and your photo of them would make a great xmas card!
I like the two matching ornaments, with just one in focus. Beautiful sky too!
What a beautiful idea and what a beautiful picture.
The colour of the bulbs is so lovely with this sky as the backdrop. Stunning!
Good skywatch.
Love the 'snowflakes' against the blue sky! A beautiful skywatch photo! Thanks for sharing; and thanks for stopping by my blog! :)
Great choice, and what a neat idea.

Such great composition. I think it is a great idea the locals are doing.
So pretty, the blue baubles are set off perfectly by the bluer sky.
