Desert rose (Adenium obesum) with raindrops

A desert rose leaf and flower covered in rain drops, taken on an overcast morning.

Summer’s almost here, so even the plants damaged by the cold winter (and, ahem, lack of proper care) are back.

While there hasn’t been enough rain in Saint Augustine, we have had a couple of solid, overcast early mornings where the colors of the flowers could stand out against the dim gray light that blankets the rest of the scene. It’s my favorite weather and time to shoot plants.
