Raindrops




The rain has stopped for a little while, I grabbed my camera to see what I can find. Like jewels of all sizes, beautiful baubles of fresh rain adorned nearly everything in sight.......including the broccoli....




and the grub which eats the broccoli!




On the clivia leaves




and the curry plant...




Last but not least, raindrops on the roses!

That first shot of the rain drop on the broccoli is so lovely! The depth and color are terrific.

Thank you Kala, I took a few photos of this raindrop about an hour ago, in a light breeze. I am really pleased to have one turn out so well.

Wonderful capture of the raindrops. It seems that the green of the leaves are intensified by the rain.

Such wonderful wet greenness!
You must be as happy with the rain as we are in the United Kingdom. first wet windy weekend for what seems months and months.
You captured some genuine jewels out there.

Thank you every one. I appreciate your lovely comments.
DAYS, we have had a very wet 12 months with flood threats and many wet weekends. The ground was already very damp before this last lot of rain. Maybe we could send you some rain!
