Rainy Day in the Garden

Everything is growing so fast, but with all the rain it's difficult to take doll photos 
in the backyard. So I thought I'd just go shoot my garden by itself.....

The side walk into the backyard

Goutweed, which does amazingly well in the shade

Clematis

Impatiens drenched after another downpour

Water droplets on the giant hosta

And my backyard picnic table 'photo studio' where I take many of my outdoor doll photos in summer. I'm sure many of you will recognize the urns with dragon-wing begonias which appear in the background of many of my doll photos. Of course, later in the summer they will be a lot bigger.

Well, here's hoping the sun comes out and dries things up later today, before all the 
rain we are expecting tonight and tomorrow. I have doll photos I want to take!
