It has been a cold and miserable afternoon here too. I didn’t even bother to check if the leaves were crying. π
Best wishes, Pete.
Rain and new covid restrictions here make for a gloomy day indeed. Still, I tried to find the beauty somewhere.
And you did. π
Thank you. π π
I have days where I feel like your photos. Beautiful
Thank you so much. I was trying to find the beauty in an otherwise miserable day.
Thank you for these gorgeous photos! I am located in western Oregon, expat Seattle-ite (west Seattle, Lincoln Park area) and where I am now we have more fir than deciduous trees – the occasional oak, walnut and maple but quite a bit of alder and cottonwood. The leaves from the latter two seldom turn anything but …. ugly – they fall before any autumn color happens. But the fir hold so much rainwater in their branches that even when there isn’t an actual downpour the slightest breeze releases a shower.
Thanks for dropping by! I’m glad you enjoyed the pictures. I’m very familiar with West Seattle, especially Alki and Lincoln Park. We’ve had lots of beautiful color here this fall but today is mostly rainy and gloomy, with remaining leaves just barely hanging on. π
I always love close ups of drops of water. Theyβre so pretty! And to think it rained today in Fresno and we were all excited about itπ
We’ve had stormy weather all week. But I was happy getting pictures of the raindrops on our tree, where the leaves are still hanging on.
Yes they turned out really well!
Thank you! π
Gorgeous captures, Susanne! These actually make me happy!
So glad to hear it! Thank you so much!
Such nice pictures. The delicate drops.
Thanks so much! I went out front in my rain gear hoping to catch a raindrop as it let go. I got close. π
I had never thought to look to the leaves for consolation. Thanks for the images and the thought.
