Wet Weather

[Lachlan 717]

I shall google them... none of which I believe occur in South Australia.[driest state on the driest continent on earth] Thanks.

Mark,

Close-ish Aussie plant is probably the Epacris impressa (although this is still somewhat different) which you should have in south east SA.

Looks like we are in for a long spell of wet weather. Perhaps a long walk under the redwoods without the camera is due.

Vaughn, wet down here also. I would love to go on a long walk in the Redwoods without a camera. Great experience. Closest I can come is last Sunday's walk from Camp Curry to the Yosemite Lodge in the rain with my son. Very special time. We were the only ones out. The others did not know what they were missing.

Jim

ps: I need to get up your way this year. Maybe October.

Does anyone have wet weather photos that would inspire me to go out in the rain?

Got a nice picture of a dogwood in bloom that only works because it's raining. The rain soaked the bark on all the trees making it very dark, which makes the green leaves and the white blossoms stand out in a way that darkroom/lightroom techniques can't really accomplish.

We sometimes forget that it really *is* all about the light. And often that means inclimate weather.
