Default While it Rains

I shot this Plumeria while the rain was coming in buckets. Hope you like it.

Nice Tom, I like it. It has that washed out look and I like how you've captured the angle of the rain and how it bounces of the plant and runs down and hangs as droplets off the stems and flowers

We have two seasons in Florida. The rainy season and the dry season. Right now we are in the dry season. That picture was taken during the summer...the rainy season. Yes, Jim, buckets of rain. And Jim, thanks for your comment.
