We Need Some Sunshine! (1 of 3)

Posted by Betty (Phillipsburg, United States) on 11 December 2008 in Plant & Nature.

For the past week or more, it has been cloudy and gray here... raining the last two days. No sunshine. So this mini-series is yellow!

Beautifully composed with excellent color, Betty. I especially like the sheen on the bud.

That truly is a sunny yellow, Betty and very welcome here today too. However, we're in need of the rain that's moving through, so I won't complain!
