Keep hoping those fluffy things flying over are going to drop some rain. I counted seven drops this morning.

And welcome to DU and the Photo Group. We're a friendly bunch in here and welcome all comers. We have monthly contests and seasonal contests. The fall seasonal will be accepting submissions in December. The November contest has yet to be announced.
