Raindrops and Petals

My kitchen orchid, taken against the backdrop of a rainy window.

Another day of rain yesterday, and stuck in the house, other than to get the shopping. More to come today, but hopefully the worst is over. Ballater seems to have escaped this time round, with much worse rainfall in other parts of Scotland.

I now need to decide if it's sensible to drive to Edinburgh tomorrow as I had a weekend planned with the Mongol Rally Mums. Decision time later today.

Fabulous capture, love the tines and drops!

Beautiful orchid photo and fantastic background. Glad Ballater has not suffered badly. The lower flatter areas are certainly having a seriously bad time.

Beautiful close up. I wish you could send us some of your rain we desperately need it

[Joan Robillard]

Lovely

Usually orchids are so pretty that I would never think of shooting them in monotone, but you’ve made me think again. This is beautiful.

Big decision but shame to miss it. I seem to hear that it’s not over for your area just yet. Great illustration of your grey, wet & windy weather.
