The sap is a very good anticeptic- pluck one of the leaves and apply it to your wound if it is a particularly bad one.<br /><br />@ Diane- water in photographs is wonderful, isn't it?<br /><br />@ Debra- nice and green. Can anything be better?<br /><br />@ Yvonne - thank you.<br /><br />@ Alex- we went through hot and humid, then graduated to very hot and humid. Glad it is now cool.<br /><br />@ Elspeth- thank you.<br /><br />@ Tina- I have always been fascinated by the refractions- but never been able to capture it on a camera. They are stunning, aren't they?<br /><br />@ Stephen- thank you. Your weather seems lovely too.<br /><br />@ RosieC- thanks for visiting. I guess tropical downpours are much stronger!<br /><br />@ Cruella- thank you. Yes, rains in India are pretty. But you do better thunderstorms (and thunderstorm stories).<br /><br />@ RA - it does me too. Thank, you.<br /><br />@ Chary- thank you. Perhaps I need to start photographing other flowers - have run out of mine :-(<br /><br />@ Theres just life- here, we don't bother doing anything in the rains- not worth it, because everything is only going to grow back again.<br /><br />@ Ellie- what do you think inspired me to post these pictures? You have some fantastic photographs in that post.<br /><br />@ Diandra- thank you. And I loved your description of your weather. Wish I could come there for a season.<br /><br />@ Patricia- thank you, but you are really fantastic. It was some of the flower photographs that you posted last year, that inspired me to keep trying.<br /><br />@ Doli- thank you. *blushes*<br /><br />@ SueAnn - your part of the world really cherishes the rains too, doesn't it?<br /><br />@ dipali- thank you.Natashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00481081735923606868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041251042986195891.post-81557117673316326892010-07-20T14:07:03.713+05:302010-07-20T14:07:03.713+05:30Absolutely beautiful photographs!Absolutely beautiful photographs!dipalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01070862196307376073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041251042986195891.post-54464438234746341902010-07-19T21:13:01.643+05:302010-07-19T21:13:01.643+05:30Rains are divine...but unfortunately, no rains her...Rains are divine...but unfortunately, no rains here yet.
