My very first shot with the 105. Never got to post it until now. Raindrops in the car window. So excited, got the lens in heavy rain just hours before our departure for Singapore early this month. Loving this gear.
Rose
Around 4:30 yesterday afternoon we had quite a thunderstorm. The sky went very dark and we had a downpour. I went out afterwards to see if bloom number three on our 'Almost Rose' had survived, she had, as have blooms four and five. The best result for our 'Almost Rose' since I brought her back from the brink.
to fling myself down in some sloping meadow and feel the sunshine envelop me and the warm winds pass over me, to see them tossing the grasses and tugging at the trees and driving the white clouds across the blue, and to feel the great earth revolving under me — for if you lie long enough you can really get the sense of sailing through space :-)

Spun with words of wonder,
Woven lace held in place
By whispers made of thunder."

And I guess it would also be one of my favourite cliché shots too.
The Transvaal daisies, or gerbera are so lovely, they are big and bright - they are so irresistible! And they hold raindrops so perfectly too. I just love to shoot them.

Happy Cliché Saturday ;o)

Cleaning out some of my older catalogs, I noticed this image of raindrops on a plastic tarp. Note the magnification of the tarp's plastic squares under the more convex shaped raindrops.
After a mostly dry February, El Nino is delivering a Pineapple Express, a moisture-laden series of storms coming from the Hawaiian Islands. This image is raindrops caught in a web.
I just hope that these strong storms do not create serious flooding and mudslides in the many burn areas throughout California and the Pacific Northwest.
Happy Friday! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.
