This was taken during a thunderstorm in May. There hasn't been much rain around here since then. June and July have been hot and dry.

I really like this one, my friend. I may steal this idea and try it myself sometime - assuming it ever rains again!

You probably miss the fresh smell of rain in the air. Oddly, we have had rain and thunderstorms several times this month. This is a very nice image of the crisply focused wet cedar trees with streaks of rain in the background. Refreshing!

Rainy days....to remind us that without water, there would be no life on Earth.
Very interesting "complaint" shot Todd.

Thanks Jer! I tried several different shutter speeds, and 1/40th provided the nice streaks.

Thanks Mike! I saw that the rain was up your way. We are in a strange spot here in the hill country. We seem to miss a lot of rain that either hits north of us or closer to the gulf.

Very impressive photography!
And I like the deep rich greens along with the fine detail.
