You Capture...Outside

The photo assignment this week was capturing things outside. We had a day of rain, so I grabbed my camera. I adore rainy days - they are perfect for being either incredibly productive or curling up on a couch with a pot of tea and a good book. I tried to look through the lens to see what the world was like when everything was wet, and here's what I got, now cropped, edited, and hung out to dry.

I liked the one yellow leaf that I didn't even notice until I uploaded the pictures!

I'm also learning about Photoshop by doing this - bonus!

My lettuce is finished, but I'm hoping to collect the seeds for next year

Splish, splash - again, unaware that I caught it until I uploaded. Nice surprise!

We planted gardenias last summer and they smell so good!

I'm not sure what it is about this one, but I like it (perhaps because you can see our porch swing in the reflection?). It just says "summer" to me.

Thanks for stopping by and make sure you check out all the other great photo links that Beth (@I Should Be Folding Laundry) is hosting for You Capture this week.
