Rain...!

Today we had rain... quite a rarity this summer.  Even with autumn arriving, we still hit 35 degrees here in Melbourne yesterday.  So today, when it rained.... I rushed outside with the macro lens to capture our plants bathed in water.

The succulents with their water diamonds...

Our fig tree dripping with figs hollowed out by hungry parrots...

 One the parrots haven't found yet...

Our olive tree is quite full this year...

the last of the summer roses...

Our garden has many succulents - they survive the hot summers well...

  lemon blossom...

 

Grapefruit ripening...

Tibetan prayer flags against a grey sky...

Enjoy the rain Melbourne!
