A recent discovery at the Xeriscape Garden up the road from me. On my chore-walk yesterday, I smelled it, oh so pleasant. Just a while after a rain, but not having my camera, I couldn't capture a shot. So, this morning, the camera and I went for a walk. Though not captured with the rain droplets on it, as I would of yesterday, it's still a pleasant shot. A little work in post, to bring out the subtle textures of the leaves. A slight tweak of contrast, highlights and brightness and one has that inner glow of life :{)))
