@cameraholic challenged me to take a long exposure photo. It's stopped raining and the sun is even shining today - hooray.

Thank you all for all your lovely comments this week - I really enjoy reading them and feel a little guilty not to reply more personally - but, like others, I decided it's better to spend time looking and commenting on your photos.
