Beauty in the mist and rain

Sitting at the table working this morning I looked at the scene below and was struck by its loveliness, despite the rain and mist.

In fact, the garden looks beautiful because of the mist and rain.

Saturated foliage and saturated colour. No wind and a sky 'neutralised' by the blanketing mist.


Even the weeds growing between the paving slabs look acceptable!
