It's not easy to understand why Light is EVERYTHING to me. I can take photos in any light, shade, bright sun, sunset etc, but good light is the difference between arbitary and special. These shots were taken in "cloudy but sunny" weather - not great - but better than no sun at all which is what we have had for the last 2 months or so. Flowers look different in light and if you look carefully, so do eyes.
Then of course those clouds came back!
