Show Me April

Okay, I know it’s May.  There just hasn’t been an opportunity to show you this until now!

I asked Dixon Hill News subscribers to send me their images of April - in the same way that I did in March - and here’s my favourite shot.  This was April in Arkansas….where rain and storms predominated for much of the month, as they did in so many parts of the States (and with such tragic consequences).  So very different to the dry and sunny month we enjoyed at Dixon Hill.

Thanks to Bethany who took this picture.  I love so many things about it: the composition, the light, the depth of field….and the hundred shades of green!  But I especially like the way she’s captured both the raindrops and the falling rain.  It’s stunning.

Seems like this will be a regular feature on the blog, so start clicking your camera on May now.  Details of how to enter your photo will be in the May newsletter.  If you haven’t yet signed up, just hit the button in the sidebar to the right.

P.S.  And if you have a minute spare, do visit Bethany’s blog to see a few more shots of April in Arkansas.  There’s a great picture of her feet in the waterlogged grass!

We sure can see why this is a favorite... the falling rain, the little raindrops on the tips of those very green leaves, the soft background... everything about it is beautiful. Thank you for sharing it.
