Return of Winter..



The blue skies of the past few days were engulfed in magnificently ominous rain clouds yesterday, the change was dramatic to say the least.. as if to remind us that we are still officially in winter, even if just for a another week. Unable to hold the weight any longer the clouds burst and rain came down in torrents. The patch of light centre pic above valiantly shining through a hole in the cloud..


This was the point where I had to run and duck for cover.. it was super exhilarating in a frantic kind of way :) I do 💙 the rain. Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe..

  6. Oh my those are very menacing clouds. It was raining here when I woke up this morning which was a big surprise. Our monsoon storms usually happen in the evening. But, it didn't last long. It was all gone within an hour.
