Description
We actually got a feeder band from Hurricane Ike yesterday afternoon, and that happens very rarely in my part of North Texas.
I have only seen it once before in the 30 plus years that I have lived here. They mostly so much further south or east.
I went outside to get this shot of Mike's favorite rose bush while it was still raining just so I could say I have been in a hurricane, :)
No damage here, but my nieces and nephews in Houston had lots of damage and will be without power for who knows how long.
God Bless the folks down on the gulf coast who will be a long time recovering from this storm and thanks so much for looking.

Amazing image my friend!! 5+ I hope you are ok, I've seen the news today on tv :(
Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! That is a super photo. I love the clarity of the rose with the water droplets, and the depth of field is perfect.
Superb capture Maria, we have storms here in the UK but nothing like a hurricane, I feel for the people that have been caught up in Ike, and all the previous ones as well. I tend to have a moan about the English weather, especially where I live in the North West, but I am thankfull that we don't get it as bad as over in the states. Excellent clarity and detail, a superb image. Bravo!!!!!
