Grey and Green

Rain showers throughout the day, making for grey skies but green foliage- certainly better than tomorrow's forecast: smoke, with another air quality alert! :(((

Well spotted and capture Heather hopefully it will help dampen down the 500 wild fires you have in Canada:)

[Beryl Lloyd]

This sight is wonderful, after being in hot and humid weather this last few weeks the sight and need of an umbrella amongst all the fresh green foliage looks so refreshing!

[Jo Worboys]

Ooh that does look a grey day but the rain is doing its much needed drenching and showing those greens a fresh tinge

[Pyrrhula]

After a hot and dry month we wish for some rain badly. Great capture of the nice path and the man walking it. Fav.

The foliage is lush but we have been dodging rain showers the last few days. At least the rain does scrub some of the particulate matter out of the air.I have a daughter who lives in Ottawa and I think it was not great air quality there again today.

Let’s hope it’s enough to dampen down all areas

Refreshing rain and the gardens are benefitting from it and not forgetting the crops for harvesting too.

[Yao RL]

Is the fire still on? In that case rain is welcoming.

[Diana]

So simple yet so effective, great story telling.

[carol white]

Hope the rain helps with the wildfires.Fav 😊

Lovely greens and the rain is helping with your air quality issues.

[Heather]

@gardencat Yes, Ottawa sure got hit badly with the earlier round and I think probably yesterday, too! Not good!

[Heather]

@yaorenliu Yes- close to 500 forest fires across the country. Climate change in action!

[haskar]

Oh yes, green shines in the rain.

Great capture

I hope the rain you’ve been getting lately helps to put the fires out and improve the air quality.
