Mechanical rain
One thing we get in Ireland is our fair share of rain. Was going out to put my motorcycle into the garage when I spotted a line of drips on the front mudguard/ fender. Getting a tripod and setting up in the rain I got a triple reflection of the mechanics of the bike.

Grass
I have one evening a week to post my 365 photos for the week. I also add them on Flickr and tonight I get them out of sequence. But never mind the world keeps turning. So to this photograph. I let some land around the house grow has nature intended it to. With wild flowers and different grasses, some of these grasses are now changing colour and I find when time is limited they make good subjects for close up photography. So in my studio ie: my front porch out of the wind it take only a few minutes to grab a shot.
