It’s been a day of two halves today – glorious sunshine this morning and pouring rain this afternoon. I spent the morning rehearsing with my friend Jim and it was only once we’d finished that I turned my thoughts to today’s photo. Looking out of our living room window Jim suggested I might try creating a photo from the raindrops on our whirligig washing line. Never wanting to be beaten by a challenge I stuck on a coat and set out into the bucketing rain to see what I could do! Thanks for the suggestion Jim – great idea!

Oh, such a lovely color of green...only enhanced by the droplets! Lovely photo, Helen! lookagain · 2012-07-12: 17:51

And I thought I was the only one who could get you to do special challenges, Helen. Nice work on this one.... danrav · 2012-07-12: 20:15
