For the last couple of days I’ve been trying to get shots of the foliage around here, but weather is not helping. So today I see a break in the storm, calm breeze and grabbed Jake for a leisure walk around the block…..

Silly me…

April + Washington + Active Storm + Teasing with a Temp Calm = Wet Opportunity

Yep, did not get three houses when things started to rain a little. Not enough to stop me yet, it’s only a couple drops. It had to be a linear measurement of how much rain started to come down as I reached the fifth house. I was determined to grab a shot of the flowers there. Luckily the five house run back kept most items dry within reason 🙂

It was worth it, I love the detail on the dark purple flower tips…
