    After the Rain

    Water Drops After the Rain
    Water Drops After the Rain

    Both Friday, Saturday and into Sunday morning we had lite rain and mist, the gentle sort of rain that is hardly noticeable but everything is wet. The rain let up about mid morning Sunday. I could see the raindrops on the bushes outside my condo so I grabbed the camera to see what photograph may be given me.

    This past weekend was graduation so all around campus traffic was a mess and you might as well forget about finding a table at any restaurant. Needless to say there were all sorts of colorful umbrellas everywhere. More photo opportunities. 🙂

    I’m writing this on Sunday evening and scheduling it to post on Monday morning. And, the weather app is predicting more rain on Monday.  Hope everyone has a super Awesome week.

    It was nice to see blue skies and sunshine yesterday after almost 4 days of constant rain. Found this image on my way to coffee.

    And, when the ground is soaked we also find a few mushrooms popping up.

    With Power

    Another Fallen Leaf

    The leaf seems out of place but because of that it adds power to the image of rain drops on the car. It shouts louder to me than if it were lying on the pavement or grass. I quickly compose and move on. Once I see the image on my monitor I realize how much power it has for me. So simple but with power. Please enjoy your Sunday and sorry for posting another leaf image but they’re everywhere.

    The Morning After

    Morning After

    Along the Colorado Front Range it is not uncommon to have storms develop in the afternoons and then move off the east. However, the severity of these storm over the past couple days has been amazing. Two evenings ago we had hail damage to several aircraft at Denver International Airport causing causing enough damage to ground several United and Frontier aircraft and canceling flights for several days. Last night was a repeat with heavy lightening and thunder to accompany the dark and ominous sky.  On the morning after comes the refreshing smell that only rain can bring, along with raindrops still clinging to the grass and leaves. I like this sort of morning after.

    After a Rain

    Raindrops

    One of the nice things about the G12 is the quick macro mode, no need to change a lens. However, I still must get down on my knees to get close. What a world we have to enjoy, especially after a nice rain.
