Red, Wet & Wonderful

Snow run-off poured down outside our Whole Foods grocery store 

due to the warmth of today's sunny mid-afternoon. 

The splattering gave me a whole new appreciation for this patio.

Glistening wet surfaces have become so rare here in the Southwest 

where droughts have challenged us for way too long.

Focus

Focus on beauty and try not to associate the blood red color with the bloody mess we live with.

Fed up with the violence and fed up with the stupidity of people's knee jerk reactions.

No words, not yet.

Today's Best Shot

Our pear blossom tree is in bloom.

I was up and out with the sun

in an attempt to capture some of the glory,

this is what I got.

Not easy those red tones,

I had to fiddle a bit in post-processing,

this from my first batch of macros from my new Nikon.

Red

Red

The color of love, sex and romance, here in the season of fall, because Valentine's Day is just around the corner.
