Desert Rose

Days are too short.   Fabulous Fridays even shorter, I’ll be very lucky to even make one photograph today.  Thought I’d get a shot in when I woke up and it was raining!  Must’ve been a small cloud burst which dried up before I had my camera set up.   I'm too slow.

Dashed outside just in time to photograph a succulent with a few remaining drops, used my 100mm Macro lens, and my frustrating Manfrotto tri-pod with an inaccurate ball head, stiffly jointed squeaky legs. We have a love-hate relationship.   No. 1 on my Christmas Wish List this year, a new tri-pod.

I’m not happy with the results but they’ll have to do as time has run out.
