Speak for yourself pal, I need my negs so that I can throw them in a big box with all the others and never, ever get around to sorting them out. As it should be.

Quiet close up colour photograph of some leaves on an evergreen tree in winter, in the rain. The leaves are hanging heavily, weighed down by the waterdrops that occasionally appear at the tips. The foilage is a deep cool emerald green, against a cool light grey background, with hints of more blurred greenery in the distance at the edge of the frame. The overall feel is quite open and airy, but you can sense the moisture in the air.

Day 26 of is "rainy" and "shot abroad"

Well, it rains a *lot* here. Like, a *lot*. I definitely don't need to go abroad to find rain!

I have literally dozens of these to choose from but I'll limit myself to four because that's what fits in a post.

I really love the soft cool tones that Fuji film stocks get in this sort of weather - these are all Superia X-Tra 400, except the evergreen which is Venus 800

Close up colour photograph of some dried out beech leaves on a tree on a wet day in winter. The leaves are hanging heavily with raindrops, and they have an almost papery quality to them. They are a soft brownish orange colour, which contrasts with the cool grey tones of the blurred background.

Colour photograph of a tangle of bare winter branches with waterdrops on them. The branches are thin and dark in colour, and they are covered in hundreds of small waterdrops that appear as white points of light. Some of the branches closest to the camera are in sharp focus, falling away to a blur in the background. There is a slightly haziness to the image that comes from a misted up lens, and the colour tones are cool soft greens and greys.

Close up detail of part of an evergreen tree in winter. Only a small portion of the foliage is in sharp focus, towards the top right of the photograph - heavy round waterdrops catch the light and hang from the very tips of the leaves. The rest is a soft blur of deep cool emerald green, with occasional points of light where there are more waterdrops.

Colour photograph of some young spring leaves on a tree branch in the rain. The branch closest to the camera is in sharp focus, and it has tiny green leaves spread in clusters along its length, with the remains of little pink buds at the centre of each cluster. Many of the leaves hang heavy with waterdrops. More blurred branches can be made out in the background. There are a couple of streaks of falling rain visible in the photograph. The colour tones are cool soft spring greens, pinks and greys.

Colour close up photograph of leaves on a tree in the golden hour light of late summer. The leaves are backlit by low evening sun, with just the edges of a few in sharp focus, falling away to a blur of greenery and light behind. There is a hint of lens flare across the whole frame, giving it a dreamlike feel. The colour tones are warm and muted, with soft greens and sepia browns.

Colour close up photograph of a tangle of weeds in the golden hour light of late summer. The weeds are backlit by the low evening sun, with the edges of the plants appearing to glow. They are in sharp focus, with hints of blurred vegetation behind them. The weeds mostly cluster in the right hand side of the frame, fading into darker shadow at the left. The colour tones are warm and muted, with soft greens and sepia browns. The whole thing has a hot, sticky, dreamlike feel to it.

A similar photograph to the previous one, but with a slightly different arrangement of weeds in the frame. This time there are three dark stems in the centre of the frame, with small round dark flower heads at the top. A few more plants can be seen in focus around the edges of the frame, with a mixture of grasses and broader leaves. This photograph has the same sticky, hot feel as the previous one. Somebody once said: "these photographs gave me hayfever!", and I can see what they mean!

A darker, mostly blurry colour photograph of a single flower head on a weed, gently lit by the low evening sun. It is an umbel shape, with small stems emanating from a larger central stem like an inverted umbrella. There are small white flowers at the top of each stem. The flowers appear to glow softly against a darker brown background and are slightly blurry, giving it the feel of an old oil painting.
