Early AM this day was great by one heck of a storm: Rain, cloud to cloud lightning, hail and shear winds. In its path a lot of folks plants and flowers took a beating, along with many tress and power lines, but the little stripe up the road seemed to fair fairly well. I am glad since this Indiana Blanket flower has a relatively short life span I had zero captures of them this year. So here is an Indian Blanket after the storm.
This is one of the last Indian Blanket flowers on one of my favorite in-town-photo-ops. I will post some of the past captures at a later date. Till Then here is a threadbare Indian Blanket.
Since we suffered through a horrific drought last year I welcome the rain. On a personal note though, I would like to see a few hours of sunshine here and there till the true dog days of summer decides to settle in. Since I have no sway over the weather, I guess I will have to deal with the lack of rays. So today I headed out with The Bride to look for a few photo ops. Below are a few from the day.
I used my Canon Powershot SX10is is pursuit of some photo-therapy on this lazy, rainy day.
Heading home today I seized the moment and I stopped by one of my favorite places to take snaps of wildflowers. Below is a Bumblebee in an Indian Blanket.
