The Trees of Modesto California November 2011

What a spectacular view residents of Modesto received this year.  There was no need to fly to the East Coast or New England to see vibrant fall colored trees.  The Central Valley of California weather has been just perfect for creating the reds, oranges, rust, and yellow colors on the local trees.  I spent a recent afternoon just wandering the streets round my home and taking photos.  This is my favorite time of the year for tree color and this year I was not disappointed one bit. 

The picture at the top of this blog I converted from a regular photo to a watercolor.  With such great views I'm considering doing a calendar of converted photos for 2012.  Keep an eye out at: http://www.redbubble.com/explore/Images+by%20William%20Moore; or look for some of the converted pictures at: http://wacm3.redbubble.com/works.  
This is a great time of the year to get out and just take photos.
