backyard photography

well, this is not my backyard but it's a farm nearby where we frequently go to enjoy the open air so I think of it as my backyard:-)

and after the sprinkles:

If this is a current shot, you're very lucky to be in that type of weather...may I ask where this is? It's beautiful...especially like the second shot.

Great shots even though they depress me here in the 20 degree weather and few inches of snow.

thank you! this is Saudi Arabia, "winter" here is really nice but you wouldn't like to be here in the summer....

Very pretty. What are the temps in the summer there? We get to be on average 105.
What kind of treatment were you using on the second pic. I love the rainbows in the first.

Great shots. Love the rainbow capture in the first. Think my fave though would have to be the flower. I can just smell its scent!

It's 115-120 here in summer...I haven't done any PP whatsoever on the second pic, I just used a very large aperture - f/ 1.8 - and I'm using a polarizing filter.
thanks a lot for the feedback :-)
