Magnolia flower

We had a massive thunderstorm yesterday morning. It was so loud and we had 30ml of rain in around half an hour. I’m not a fan of thunderstorms as I was in a cyclone when I was three and I still remember it like it was yesterday.

Anyway I had to pop to the post office and when I got home I noticed that my magnolia was about to flower again and that it still had raindrops on it from the earlier storm. I liked the different textures of the water, flower and leaves.

Have a great weekend.

I love a good thunderstorm, but then I was never caught in a cyclone. This is a beautiful photo you did a terrific job of capturing the different textures

Fabulous capture - we have 4 days of rain predicted, but nothing about storms yet, thank goodness.

Nice shot. That's a lot of rain in a short time!

Lovely flower. We had a wonderful rainstorm during the night!

Pretty capture- I like how the petals seem to be cascading from the bud. Wow- a cyclone would be extremely traumatic. No wonder you don't like the thunderstorms!

@olivetreeann it was the worst cyclone Australia has ever seen and I was only three. I remember it like it was yesterday.
