Clematis and buds

I was hoping to take this shot in the soft evening sun but the rain put paid to that. Anyway best laid plans so I thought I would use the same shot with rain on the petals.

Hope you like it and as ever thanks for the comments and views.

I like that splash of colour amongst the green. Yes, that's Summer over again for a couple of days at least. :(

The clematis was very happy about it though!

What a beautiful coloured clematis, great with the greens (and drops of course!)

[Gena Pegg]

Love it. Appears very tropical almost (maybe it's the rain?) The color is amazing!

the rain does add to the image, hopefully you'll get a better day tomorrow.

They come in so many varieties. Very attractive with the rain drops.

Wonderfully rich colours - you'll have a fabulous display when the buds are all out.
