After days and days of rain we’ve gotten a little sunshine among the grey clouds, and so I’m posting a couple of photos purely for visual relief. I actually took them a week ago, on the last day before today that we had some sun. These roses got completely waterlogged in all the rain since then, and this morning I cut their soggy, browning, and spent blooms off.
I do enjoy how the petals from a nearby safety-orange poppy have scattered among the roses, and pick up the coral tint at their centers.

One should take photographs of roses in June. How lucky that there had been that chance!
