Photo Rehab, The Clinic: Week 38 Wrap up

“In December 2014, after completing the Photo101 course, I opened the Photo Rehab Event in this blog, a ‘healing clinic’, for all of us who love photography (hobbyists, amateurs, pro-shooters and enthusiasts) who missed the course and daily interaction with other photobloggers” Lucile De Godoy

Check out all the magnificent photographs for this week from Lucile’s site:

Stormy Weather

Posted on by

“The storm starts, when the drops start dropping. When the drops stop dropping then the storm starts stopping” Dr. Seuss

Stormy Weather

Thunder and lightning
Onto the ground striking
The stormy weather
Bringing hail and rain
Forget the touch of the feather
No more dreams of the sunny
Time to wake up honey
We are not in Spain
Anymore…

“If you want to see the sunshine, you have to weather the storm” Frank Lane

September Rain

Rain, rain, rain
Falling down the plain
The little droplets
On the surface
Colours of autumn
Fully in blossom

Don’t blame it on the rain

Posted on by

Photography and Poetry

“Don’t take your toys inside just because it’s raining” Cher

Don’t blame it on the rain

When it rains, it pours
Thunder and lightning
Can be oh so frightning
But don’t run indoors
Yourself into hiding
It can be fun outside
Even if you won’t stay dried
It may be raining
But nothing staining
Just enjoy the ride

Gun’s Travel Log: Greece – Rhodes Island 15

Posted on by

“Eureka! – I have found it!” Archimedes

Gun’s Travel Log: Greece, Rhodes: Umbrellas

Gun’s travel log, stardate: Greece, EET (GMT +3)

For an island which says
They offer 300 sunny days
There sure are lots of umbrellas
In this little town of Hellas’

Better be prepared for the worst
Was the answer received at first
The local folk seemingly surprised
Of the Finn’s stupid question arised

Kindly explaining further
The picture was getting clearer
The monsune season filled with rain
Without the umbrellas it would be a pain

August Rain, Photography and Poetry

“In August most of Europe goes on holiday” Tony Visconti

August Rain

The light droplets of rain
Falling onto the open plane
The air cool and crisp
The wind but a wisp
The nature lush and green
Everything new and clean

Picnic in July, Finnish style

Posted on by

Poetry and Photography

“In the bible it rained for 40 days and 40 nights. They called it disaster. In Finland we call it summer!”

Picnic in July, Finnish style

Going on a picnic
Come snow, hail or shine
After all, it is still July
Hoping not to get sick
Sitting on the beach
Shivering with cold
The warmth at arms reach
It’s summer I was told
Not time for mission abort
Should not have worn shorts
The rain soon falls
Drops like thick walls
Clothes getting wetter
Running to shelter
Looking for a hide
Getting inside
Cold and wet
And unfed
Cursing and swearing
Of this life unfairing
Looking outside again
Hoping no more rain
What the f…k?
The sun is back up!

After the rain

Photography and Poetry

“Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet” Bob Marley

After the rain

The leaves are greener
The air is cleaner
The sky is bluer
Raindrops the only reminder
Of the storm now passed by

Cloudy with a chance of Rain

Posted on by

Photography & Poetry

“Conversation about the weather is the last refuge of the unimaginative” Oscar Wilde

Cloudy with a chance of Rain

Cloudy, with a chance of rain
No, we’re definitely not in Spain
Seems to be a repeating pattern
Maybe a joke by the Mad Hatter

Be careful to not get a frost bite
When you dip your toe into the lake
Or you might end up in a plight
And a most terrible ache

A summer’s day in July
Eyes focused on the sky
Clouds moving to the wind
Cold breeze on my skin

Should have worn a jacket
“But it’s summer” I quote with “brackets”
Let’s open the packets
And bring out the rackets

Summer madness or fun
Maybe we’ll see the sun
Before the day is done
And we have to run

So let’s enjoy this time of year
Without any doubt or fear
The winter soon enough is here
And the summer mood will disappear
