Hi Golda and Ann, Thanks for looking at my photo and leaving your really nice comments.. The rain sure was nice and I'm sure the cactus enjoyed it. Now were back to heat with humidity that we can do without.. I'm glad you both enjoyed my photo and composition.

The rain must be a very welcome change for you, in such a hot part of the world.Wonderful color palette,and I like how you have the thrasher just slightly off center,which adds more interest to the compostion.

Hi Beverly, Thanks for your nice comment.. I did luck out with the rain just ending and the clouds low and white. With the blurring of them it looks like one of your photos with fog :)
