What Is

 
The rain continues to fall but there's a sudden softness; a quietness to it. Almost apologetic, sad that it was seen to lose its temper.  Yet it's reluctant to make future promises, especially ones it cannot keep.  So for now we take what is, the here and now.  Tomorrow?  Well that's another day.

    1. Thanks Honey, I loved the hazy reflection of the trees in our pool.

  2. I thought that looked like a reflection, very cool, and with it being Halloween, maybe even a little spooky!

  3. A beautifully surreal and peaceful image - I'm glad the rain is now soft and quiet, instead of the maelstrom of the past few days.

    1. Surreal describes it perfectly. Can't believe the sun is actually out today and we have blue skies (although it's still chilly).

  4. Such a perfect conjunction between words and image. And I love how this dovetails with your previous post.

    1. This isn't the type of image I usually post but it seemed to fit the moment somehow.
