Petal Carpet

Today it was overcast and humid, with a few spots of rain during the day which turned into a downpour in the evening. In the park, I saw that a brisk wind had blown the blossom off the trees sideways -- so that it hadn't dropped evenly all around the trunk, but in patches next to the trees; like a bedside carpet made of petals. So I took a snap.



I was a bit disappointed that the weather had made the lighting for these pictures rubbish, but I decided it couldn't be helped. Five minutes later, just as I got back to the office, sharp, clear sunlight burst through the clouds, making everything beautiful. Damn it.
