AFTERNOON SUNSHINE
After our weekend rain the sun was beautiful this afternoon
I just love the afternoon sunshine streaming through my bedroom window.
Creating beautiful shadows as it streams through the lace curtains.
After 6 years of sunshine coming through these windows my toile drapes need replacing. I think this time they might just be white.
Click on photos to enlarge - they look better that way
Love the lacy shadows created by the afternoon sun
With our Winter weekend rain there were some gorgeous raindrops around the garden
This pretty Iceberg Rosebud with a hint of pink looked so pretty with it's raindrops
Love the way the drops of rain glisten
Drip, drop.
Love the frosty look of this rosebud
Such a soft and pretty look
Loving the big droplet just hanging and waiting to fall
Love how this is just hanging on the tip of the branch
All in a row
These I adore, looking like little glass balls
Not many blooms left on my climbing Pierre de Ronsard
Ready to drop off the tip of this lemon tree leafThe rain was wonderful for our Victorian gardens

I LOOOOOOVE capturing raindrops on my roses and peonies, honey! I also love to view shadows in bloggers photos. They have something mystical about them. Beautiful job...and I DID enlarge the photos. ;-)

gorgeous photos Alison, I love checking out the garden after it rains, everything is vibrant, and the smell is lovely.
I love that song "Sunshine on a Rainy Day". This post reminded me of that song.
Hi Alison,
Your photos are beautiful! Love those drops of rain on the branches and flowers. The shadows of lace are dreamy and the room looks like it's ready for a day dream! Have a great week, it's good to "see" you again now that I'm getting back into the swing of things. Thanks for visiting and your kind comments too!
Oh my gosh, your photography is stunning. Love the ones with the raindrops on roses (one of my favorite things!)
Isn't nature amazing especially when it is captured on camera.... love your roses & your bed looks so inviting, their is something peaceful about the sunrays shinning through lacey curtains...
Today here it is cold & raining & our power is due to go off any minute for the day....repairs need doing...they could have picked yesterday when the sun was out & the day a lot warmer.... oh well.
Have a great day Hun

Your photographs are incredible! The one of the iceberg rose is breathtaking!
I just can't believe it is winter there! Your pictures are just gorgeous and about the curtains.....don't we like them faded? LOL! I know I love fabric that is faded and used looking. It has a story to tell!

Hi Alison...Love your pictures!!! Thanks for coming by to visit me. Its been awhile since I've been able to visit all my blogging buddies. Hope all is well. I wont be getting pictures of rain for quite awhile now that we have moved to the sunshine state
Those roses are beautiful! Have a lovely weekend! x
Hasn't this rain been great for the gardens?
just wish it would let me dry the sheets, lol!
Alison, when do you prune your Pierres? or do you prune them at all? I'm thinking it would be soon, or maybe I've missed the boat perhaps?
How absolutely gorgeous are all your flowers! Lots of rain here today too - when it stops I'll go out into the garden with the macro lens :-)
Have a wonderful weekend Alison ♥
