Photographer Gordon Brugman has shared some absolutely amazing
images with us recently, but in my opinion today's offering is
something special indeed. There is nothing like a cool spring rain
to make flower blossoms really come to life for the camera. Here is
Mr. Brugman to tell us just a bit about this lovely image:
"A sudden Spring shower does little to dampen the beauty of an
azalea bush's blooms. These colorful bushes are related to
rhodo-
dendron, and they are just another of the many visible
reminders
of rebirth at this wonderful time of year."
--Gordon Brugman

Exceptional picture today Mr. Rouse. Gordon Brugman has submitted
some of the finest work I have seen on this site as of late, and
that's really saying something given the caliber of photos that
consistently grace these pages. Well done!

Very nice image today Gordon!! The bokeh is exceptional and the
flower detail is very nice. I sometimes have a hard time with red
flowers and you did great here!! Thanks for sharing your photo.
