rain, puddles, rivers, and rainbows

i just took a walk outside inbetween cloudbursts, and this is what i saw...trees in the leaves

trees scattered among their leaves

last leaves

a raging river, swollen with raindrops 

 

very close to cresting it's bank in places

while our fingers stay crossed

we scurry back to the house ahead of the cloud burst and after an hour i see this out my studio window

a rainbow, i wanted to share with you.

and this artist i just discovered and am enjoying her newest cd very much, and i love this song about trees and this one.

Your river is huge. I do hope it stays away from your lovely house. Aww, a rainbow! We're just now getting some light rain after a very long dry spell. Smells so good. And I simply love your first two photos! How pretty those reflections are.

I just love those photos - wonderful colours - and hope the river keeps its natural course. (I just sent you a 'business' email which felt very formal, so wanted to drop by and say hello. I so admire your work.

such beautiful glimpses into your world. may that river finds it way back to center instead of cresting.
