09-07-05 scorched earth

We took a trip out to the showhouse on the development where we're getting our house built, so we
could begin to measure up for curtains this morning.

All round there's evidence of the heat we've been getting lately. Stagnant pools of water being
baked dry leaving nothing but parched earth. I thought it looked so cool that I'd get a shot.
Just as well, as I was completing the PP on this one, there was an almighty din as a heavy
rainstorm started without warning. Well the black clouds should have been a warning, but then
again I had my nose in a histogram.

Anyway, once again I was playing catch-up. That's me back up to date. I plan to post again on
Monday, dial-up's too painful!

Monday - update - We're housesitting this week, so again posting might be a bit erratic.

I really like this, Dom. The comp. is excellent, just including those stones at the margins. But wait a minute, scorched earth? This is Scotland!

Lately I swear that's how I feel here. It's so horribly hot.. I feel like I could crumble and crack and blow away.
Nice detail and texture
