Things to do in the garden on rainy days
I almost forgot what the sun look like! I didn't water my garden for the past three weeks. With the amount of rain we've had, I can go away for a month and not have to worry about watering. That's how much rain we've had for the past three weeks. Looking at the forecast, it doesn't seem to let up anytime soon. On the bright side, despite the lack of sun, plants have been growing faster.
Next time when it rains, grab your camera! The best time to take pictures of the garden is when the sky is overcast, so next time when the weather is bad don't put away your camera. Overcast lighting is the best for macro shots, and the rain makes the colors pop. Hope it's nice and sunny in your part of the world!

Louise, beautiful photos you took, yet, what I like even more are the umbrella in Buddy Garden’s icon and the little bug on the leaf

This past Friday we got almost 3 1/2 inches of rain in one afternoon! It just came down in buckets, and needless to say, there was a bit of erosion out back on our garden slope, but not so much to cause alarm. Had to look twice at the second photo…love your creativity!
