Buds and Raindrops

Overnight rain has left the few buds in the garden that are struggling to emerge covered with a film of water. It was windy this morning with no decent light levels to speak of so I had to resort to the ringflash in order to obtain a half decent sharpish image.

Because of the awkward position of the bud I had to hand hold the camera whist shivering with the cold so was surprised to even get a couple of reasonable sharp shots from about the 20 or so taken.

It now appears that it will be next week before the temperature can even approach double figures. So the dreary Spring Winter goes on!
