droplets of rain

It's been raining so much lately!  The plants are loving it along with lots of thirsty and hungry creatures.
A rain drop nestles in the center of a kalanchoe.


Rain droplets drip from the edges of this not-yet-quite-opened lily.

purple clematis with lime leaves


A daddy long legs traverses a rain splattered field of leaves.


Rain droplets festoon a bevy of crimson lilies.

Thank you, Ms Jenny, for hostessing another round!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday


COOLER COLORS
Someone is hanging out on this Beth's Blue star flower (isotoma axillaris).


 LEAVES
New plantlets are forming along the edges of the leaves of this kalanchoe plant.


ICED BEVERAGE
mint tea made from chocolate mint that grows in my garden.  The liquid is a very pale green.  YUM!


COOLING OFF
Bunkie sits in the screened doorway of the cabin catching some cool breezes (and wonderful scents, too, no doubt!).


RAW
a little bit of produce from my deck garden




This is a very fun meme hostessed by Ashley Sisk in which 5 prompts are given and one must then take a photo to illustrate each one.  Come see how others have interpreted these words HERE
 
Next week's words are:  

  1. Body Part (pick any of them, but let’s keep it family friendly)
  2. Wednesday (take a photo on Wednesday – easy enough)
  3. Music
  4. Guess What It Is (photograph anything and make us guess what it is)
  5. Mirror Image

Textures

not a black and white photo!  (March 31, 2013)


Let's add some brightness!  This is a stack of tie dyed T shirts ready to be shipped to their new home.

 
taken March 25, 2013.  It's supposed to be Spring!  This is not black and white either!

Athabasca Glacier in the Columbia Icefields area of Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada (early September 2012)

 
some variety of kalanchoe (St. Lucia).  Baby plants develop along the edges of the leaves of the mature plant.   cool, huh?!
