Heat and Drought Effects

Our last full day in the Shenandoah Valley spent mostly working on my presentation in October. Went outside - it has be in the 90s every day without rain and I thought to capture that aspect also. Completely sooc except for the frame
poor flower! That describes the heat so well!

Beautiful details.

I feel you, re: drought and no rain, though add at least 10 degrees to the temps! It's horrible. We need relief, but I don't think there is any in sight.

Poor little flower. It's a great close-up, though.
