Taken through my sittingroom window just after dawn. The lashing rain finally stopped just after sunset. A bucket in our back garden, empty last night, was half full.
Raindrops lit up by the sun on a bird of paradise (Strelitzia reginae) flower bud.

So.......One day when it was raining like crazy outside I decided I was going to try to catch myself a raindrop. Easier said than done, at least for me :-) After what seemed like shooting 100's of photo's I got this one, Yeah! I was satisfied. The crazy things I do for entertainment. I know my neighbors think I have totaly lost it. :-)

I'm not a poet, a philosopher or a romantic but I loved the music and the pictures on this video.

A dear friend gave us this floribunda rose called 'Eternity'.

Winter in Melbourne this year has been bitterly cold: the coldest winter since 1947. Yet even amidst the cold temperatures, grey skies and fairly constant rain, there are some moments of pure beauty, like this Paradise Blush sasanqua camellia flowering in my rear garden. I caught it basking in a bit of sunshine, covered in diamond raindrops the other day. A lovely splash of colour and beauty on a rainy winter's day.
The Camellia Sasanqua Paradise Blush has deep rosy pink buds that open to small, white, semi double flowers with shaded pink reverse petals. It is a hardy, long living shrub that can grow into a small tree.
