AUTUMN RAINDROPS

AUTUMN RAINDROPS

I have learned that taking

photos after a rain is extra special.

Autumn colors -- glorious.

Shiny magic crystals on red leaves

of the Kousa dogwood.

or a variagated leaf

sometimes they hang like teardrops

The only plant blooming is

the Autumn Encore azalea.

Mosses are always beautiful.

Yellow maple leaves on moss.

A holly fern.

Thyme in a planter.

You’re a Master Gardener

if you recognize this leaf.

The grape leaf mahonia and 

 an old birdbath stand tucked

away in the wet shade.

In the meantime . . . inside

I am working on making a scale

model of my set.

It’s made out of folded 

poster paper.

This is what it might look like

if I did all the painting in pastels.

stay tuned . . .
