Moss on the Roof growing well in the shade and moisture outside, and on the East side as well, shot in North Carolina.
The San Juan Mountains in southwest Colorado are the largest mountain range in the state and contain some of the highest and most jagged summits in the continental United States. They also receive the highest snowfall levels in the state due to moisture blown in from the Pacific Ocean. The annual snowfall at Wolf Creek Pass (elevation 10,850 feet) averages about 400 inches (10 m) and sometimes exceeds 600 inches (15 m).
Two hours before sunset, the sky was solid blue without any clouds - but I still went out in hopes for some moisture and clouds; I got lucky on this night.

Simply the best time to photograph bokeh - after the rain and in the sunshine AND through my Tamarisk tree.
As a photographer you take photos because you are recording what your eye is seeing at the time and for me I use this medium as an art form, and from time to time I get goose bumps when I look through the view finder and see something out of the ordinary, and this is one of those shots.
I took this one this morning at around 7.00am my first sunrise outing for some time and to come back with this kind of shot made it all worth while, it even shows up some cobweb strands, and I just LOVE that water droplet at the tip of that thorn! Please let me know what you think of it!!

"Heavy dew this morning and every spider web in the garden is strong with pearls of moisture.... webs wherever I look, all shining things of silver beauty. The difference between utility and utility plus beauty is the difference between telephone wires and the spider's web."
~Edwin Way Teale, Circle of the Seasons, 1953
The perfect ingredients for a happy photographer: one macro lens, a well loved camera, and a low, dense fog in the early morning.

Capturing the winter roses along the Rose District in Broken Arrow. Yes, captured on 12/21/2021 and that is a lot of 2s and 1s in a date hand.
Osteospermum is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the Calenduleae, one of the smaller tribes of the sunflower/daisy family Asteraceae. They are known as the daisybushes or African daisies. It has been given several common names: African daisy, South African daisy, Cape daisy and blue-eyed daisy. Osteospermum used to belong to the genus Dimorphotheca, but only the annual species remain in that genus; the perennials belong to Osteospermum. It has been given several common names: African daisy, South African daisy, Cape daisy and blue-eyed daisy. There are about 50 species, native to Africa, 35 species in southern Africa, and the southwestern Arabian Peninsula. They are half-hardy perennials or sub-shrubs.
Daisy flower opens and closes because it helps them hold on to moisture and protects them from nocturnal insects. 66557
There is some uniqueness about moisture. The heavy one condensed at forest floor to nourish a dreamy world and the light one dancing in air with golden sunset to add the world with peace, hope and energy. The sound of wind and the smell of Pacific mist further added some drama to me when taking this shot at about 15 miles away.
Just to reassure friends we don't have blazing sun all summer though our farmers are suffering a drought away from the coastal rain.
Just 60 miles/97 km north of Seattle, commercial farms of daffodils & tulips bloom every Spring.
The moist Pacific weather makes photo conditions a bit of a challenge - yet provides wonderful contrast & drama.

looks like it'll be a few more days before we can safely leave the house....frozen sleet covering everything....almost fell twice going out to the streetside mail box......results after 3 hours of melting.
Early this morning, we had just the tiniest suggestion of a rain shower--more like heavy fog falling to the ground, just enough to darken the bricks and concrete for a few minutes. It was delightful. Nature provided the set up. We are slowly coming to the end of our 6-mo. summer dry period here in the Bay Area.
