Dry

This used to be a lake behind our home. I've never seen it this empty. Now just a small puddle remains in the middle of dry ground. It's funny to see the wooden poles of the little hut with a grass roof stuck into the cracked dirt and kind of sad seeing the lotus leaves and flowers sticking up from the the dry ground.

During rainy season, I would be up past my ankles in swampy water taking this picture. Soon enough though, the rain will come, and we will be enjoying new puddles every day. The lake will fill, and if you sit in the hut long enough, you will spot a frog jumping from one of the lotus leaves into the water.
