At the end of May, on Memorial Day, we had an early rain. It was a fairly light rain, so when it ended I packed up my camera and tripod and headed into the forest looking for a particular stretch of creek I very much enjoy. The trails were a bit muddy, but not too bad, and the recent rain helped saturate the greens of the wet leaves and the browns and greys of the rocks along the creek.

This is such a beautiful and relaxing stretch of creek, and I was fortunate there were still some mountain laurel blooming along the creekside. Times like this can really help make up for some of the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
