Daisy drops of rain Rain drops show on the white petals of a daisy that struggles amid the ruins of an old hospital building. I wonder if that building is still there? I’ll have to go look someday.

I’m not sure what caught my eye in the first place but I think it was the red door. Shot on a wet morning that brightened up after an hour of intense rain.

Standing in the gutter
Filed in Autumn, Blarney, Canon 20D, Cork, Ireland, Photos, Rain, Sigma 10-20, Urban, WaterStanding in the gutter It’s pouring rain, I’m just after eating a delicious meal with family and what do I do?

Wet Wellow Web
Filed in Blarney, Cork, Flowers, Ireland, Nature, Panasonic FZ5, Photos, Rain, WaterWet Wellow Web Early in the morning dew coats everything and water droplets on spider webs glisten in the rising sun.

Grab your bag and run!
Filed in Black and White, Candid, Chicago, People, Photos, Rain, Street, United States, UrbanGrab your bag and run! I’m not sure where this is. We sheltered from a very heavy rain storm and watched while people ran for cover from all over. Thankfully the storm didn’t last too long and I wandered to Millennium Park!
A rose by any other colour One of the Blarney Castle roses. The original was very saturated and detail was lost in the bright red of the petals. Making a monochrome image made the detail stand out and drops became visible again. A little dodge and burn to finish.
