Wet Spring #1
Bozeman, Montana
2015

I don’t believe we’re officially in a drought right now in this part of Montana but we’re certainly in a moisture deficit situation after a winter of paltry snow and warm temperatures. So the sometimes almost continuous light rain pattern we’ve been in the last week or so is very welcome in spite of a temporary sun deficit.

Not only does the continual rain saturate the ground with moisture, it also saturates the colors in the woods behind our our house. I took a number of photos on a wet walk recently so will post them as a series. While the wetness also creates a nice rich look in black and white images, I think this series works best in color.
