If I ever again decide to have the midsummer week as a holiday, please do me a favour and remind me that I’m an idiot. How many years has this happened now? June is statistically one of the rainiest months of the year… so I shouldn’t be surprised to find that days just get washed away. Like today. It was raining in the morning, pouring by afternoon and the whole thing finished off with a big thunder. In the evening it was finally dry enough to venture out. I am well prepared to photograph in rain, but there’s a limit. Add some wind and it’s a recipe for sitting in front of the computer instead!I was determined not to let a day pass without taking some pictures, and noticed that the ferns looked rather photogenic. I wanted to shoot the ferns last year, but somehow it never happened (after all, they are right behind my empty nextdoor garage so it’s such a stretch to get there with the camera). Maybe next year I can not shoot something else.
