Description

We actually got a feeder band from Hurricane Ike yesterday afternoon, and that happens very rarely in my part of North Texas. I have only seen it once before in the 30 plus years that I have lived here. They mostly so much further south or east. I went outside to get this shot of Mike's favorite rose bush while it was still raining just so I could say I have been in a hurricane, :) No damage here, but my nieces and nephews in Houston had lots of damage and will be without power for who knows how long. God Bless the folks down on the gulf coast who will be a long time recovering from this storm and thanks so much for looking.

Gorgeous lighting effects in this shot of the rain drenched rose, Maria. God has a lot to answer for in allowing these disasters to occur.

The capture is so incredibly soft and delicate! I love the light and colors too. Glad you are all right. Hope things go well for your family in Houston soon. Been there to some extent when a hurricane remnent came off the east coast in Virginia and we survived all of the wind. We are getting the winds, not the rain, of Ike.

Beautiful! With two friends in the Houston area, and family near Dallas, we have been sitting and watching the news almost continuously. All have faired well, and I think the family only got about 3/4" of rain. Prays for all who are without power.
