© 2013 Thousand Word Images by Dustin Abbott

Here is the first a new series of images I want to share this week. We are finally starting to show some signs of spring, so here are some images devoted to the April showers that will (hopefully) bring May flowers. This first is a tight shot of dried lilac dripping in the middle of a rain. Above the main dried cluster you can see a new bud starting to form. The mix of old and new…all beautiful.

Technical info: Canon EOS 6D, Canon EF 70-300L, Processed in Adobe Lightroom 4, Photoshop CS5, and Alien Skin Exposure
