Guess what, it hasn't rained all day

Uploaded: January 04, 2010

Description

I'd like to wish Tammy Espino a belated Happy Birthday. This bee was making the best of the sunshine today, like the rest of us!! This was the 1st full day of sun for about 3 weeks, you would never know it was summer here. But at least we haven't got bushfires!! Lens aperture F/4, shutter speed 1/1002 sec, focal length 5mm, ISO 400.

Beautiful capture, Chris!
Wish we had some rain. Very hot instead and fire always a danger. #1222879

Thanks for that. I am so sick of the rain, we are trying to pave the front drive & put the fence up, all the filling keeps washing away. Once we finish it can keep going, just need a few dry days.

Hi Ken, we had that weather, cold (not as cold as yours though)gale force winds, wet & miserable. Now it is so hot, we can only stay outside for 15 minutes, then back in front of the cooling & fans for 45. We aren't getting out yard work done very quickly. Got 8 grass Ticks on me taking that picture!!! #8285301
