Rain kissed
Six photographers, one very cooperative Nursery owner – but really inclement weather!!! Warren, Gail, Will, Malcolm, George and I ventured out regardless of the bucketing rain and still managed to bag some reasonable shots. This one is taken at Swanes Nursery, Galston – on the northern outskirts of Sydney

That is so fresh looking Rosalie. Had it been a fine day you never would have seen this. Wonderful colour, it stands out so vividly against that dark background. Excellent presentation. Have Swane’s seen it?
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
You’re right Margo it would have been washed out and no droplets without the rain (a lesson there somewhere?!!) – Swanes have seen others I’ve done and there’s a little project brewing in the back of my mind – see what comes of it sometime!!! Thanks for taking time to comment.

The light & colour came up real well. Good detail
You can’t beat ‘real’ raindrops.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Have you noticed that a spray bottle gives uniform sized droplets – rain gives random sizes – so it really is nice to get the real thing!!!
