Frangipani Ball by onewing

Frangipani Ball

At last the rain has stopped and the sun is shining again, so I thought I would take a crystal ball photo of my frangipani bush.

Over the last couple of days we have had 120 mm rain according to our rain gauge. The plants are looking well watered now.

As we are now in Autumn in Australia, the frangipani leaves and flowers will begin to fall so I wanted to capture the flowers before they go to sleep for the winter.
Beautiful Babs, lovely capture....we carried umbrellas all over Melbourne & did not use them once...Home to the Sunny Coast to showers....

Lovely shot the focus and composition are great. That's some rainfall 120mm would wash us away!

This is wonderful! Do you have some kind of clear pedestal for it to sit on? I can’t figure out how it is placed here?
March 24th, 2018  
Wow, very cool. I like it.

@happysnaps My daughter lives in Melbourne and she says it has been very dry.

@365projectorgjenfurj Hope you get home safe. I hate driving in fog.

After all the rain we had it has been very hot and humid today. 35 degrees C at Maitland, it is always just that little bit warmer when we travel inland. Doesn't feel like Autumn yet.

@kjarn No more rain here yet, but there may be more on the way tomorrow apparently.

@casablanca I definitely like value for money.

@rjb71 The rain has just soaked straight into the ground because it has been so dry here the last few months. Because we live on the coast the soil is partly sand so it soaks up the rain very quickly.

@louannwarren The ball is sitting on a small glass stand but I Photoshopped that out of the picture.
