今朝は雨 Rain this morning

今朝は雨。It's raining this morning.

昨日には随分と満開に近づいたアトリエの庭の白木蓮、今朝はこんな感じです。

一昨日から花びらは少し散り始めていたのですが、夜半からの雨で随分と散ってしまいました。毎年、季節の移り変わりによって咲き出すスピードが違うので興味深いです。

今年は、一輪咲き出して少し休憩して、ぼちぼち咲き出して、その後は一気に咲きだしました。春の始まりを感じるひと時です。The white magnolias in the garden of the atelier, which were very close to full bloom yesterday, are like this this morning. The petals had started to fall a little from the day before yesterday, but the rain from midnight has scattered a lot. It is interesting that the speed at which the flowers bloom differs each year depending on the season. This year, a single flower began to bloom, took a short break, then bloomed little by little, and then bloomed all at once. It's time to feel the beginning of spring.
