A Warm February

I have seen temps well above 70 degrees Fahrenheit a few times over the past ten days. What’s with that? Isn’t this February in Colorado?

Today, I’ll offer up some contrasting colors from throughout the warm day of yesterday. These are scenes that look more like late autumn on the Colorado plains rather than winter February, no?

And a bonus semi-abstract landscape. If you compare the above image to this one, you can identify where my eye went to cut out this reflection from the larger scene…
