Flowers
Brisbane, California
July, 2007

      I woke up one morning in July, and I noticed that it was raining which is extremely unusual for the Bay Area in summer.  I also saw that the rose bush in our backyard had a little bud that was starting to open, so I grabbed the camera to capture the moment.

          Huddled under my raincoat to protect the camera, I worked quickly to capture this fleeting moment.
