15/52 Behind the Curtain
On a photowalk with @marion4life I was very taken with this scene. The blur of the moss and stone created by the passing water, the shadow cast by the water on the wall and the warm light at the same time. I loved this calming moment.

The picture was taken on a sunny afternoon and shows a close-up of a gray-brown stone wall, the upper half of which is overgrown with green moss. Water flows down from above and forms a kind of water curtain in front of the wall, partially covering it. And so the picture is divided into three parts: On the left is the curtain of water, which reflects the sunlight on its surface. The moss and the wall appear completely blurred by the water. To the right, we see the shadow of the water curtain, which casts a broad dark stripe on the moss and the wall. The right-hand third part of the picture shows the moss and wall warmly illuminated by the sunlight.

My neighbor's dogwood after some rain. The red structures are bracts, leaves modified to function as petals for the drab inflorescence within. #dogwood #flowers #trees #petals #bracts #botany #rain #water #cornus #pollination

Cupped, red, petal-like leaves filled with rainwater.

Mon refuge. Retrouver le calme après la tempête. #SilentSunday #sunday #SundayVibes #photo #photography #nature #emotions #water

Paysage calme au bord d’un étang.
Le soleil, presque caché par un ciel de nuages texturés, se reflète en traînées argentées sur l’eau.
Des arbres feuillus, dont un saule pleureur, bordent la rive d’en face, plongés dans une lumière douce.
Au premier plan, un tapis d’herbe verte et quelques arbustes encadrent la scène.
L’atmosphère est paisible, silencieuse, comme un refuge secret baigné de lumière tamisée.

India is a global warming ‘hole,’ and scientists aren’t sure why. Despite its extreme heat waves, the country’s decadeslong warming trend amounts to half the global average. #India #climatechange #water #heat #aridification https://www.science.org/content/article/india-global-warming-hole-scientists-arent-sure
