Rain, Rain, and more Rain

It rained all day and it's still raining. I didn't want to take my camera outside, so I took pics from a couple of opened windows.

This leaf was caught on a vine that's growing on the side of my house. I'm glad we haven't gotten around to cutting it down. :0)

This is one of my out of the box pics. I wish I could have gotten closer to the leaf for a better dof.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for your nice responses to my cat pics!!! It really means a lot to me! :0)

Rain, rain, rain all day here too! This shot really captures today! I love that big waterdrop, and that poor leaf looks so pathetic, as if it's given up on fall.

[Paul Myers]

Great catch on the drop of water on the leaf. Very nicely done.

The rain has made it here, to ATL GA....and the cold is coming in too. And it was sooo windy today. I like this pic....droopy and wet...perfect for today's mood.

[Carolyn White]

@espyetta LOL! My first name choice was wet and droopy!

[Beth]

You and I are having the same weather. I like the water drop. You're doing a great job with the new camera.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@cjwhite Great minds...they do think alike! (I am told, anyway!)

[MaryBeth Dailey]

I love the bokeh....very subtle and there is one behind the stick above the drop...very subtle and neat looking....

[richard saffold]

sunny but cold here.....i don't think you could have done much better than this.

[Anne ❀]

cool bokeh in the rain, nice lighting in spite of the clouds

[Nikkers]

[Paula]

Beautiful DOF Carolyin!

[Jennifer C]

gorgeous image! Hope the rain stops soon x

[Paula Cook-Farkas]

Are you kidding me? This is awesome! And today is my day to find hearts...did you notice that there are two in your background? To the right of the leaf, one underneath the other. You have shattered your box.

[Brandie]

Wonderful! We had a good bit of rain this weekend, which left us with cold, cloudy, gloomy skies.

[Angie Vega ☮♥ シ]

This is awesome. A fav

[Brad Johnson]

Barely hanging on. Cool shot.

Fabulous Carolyn - look at that drip about to fall. Great capture. There is beauty in rain - I never mind it if I'm tucked up inside, dry and warm.

[karenann]

I love the POV and the droplet.

[Shirley Banford]

Nice shot.

[Donna Edwards]

Aww yuk day, but pretty pic :o)

[Matt Clendon]

Nice shot, I do feel a bit sorry for the leaf though. It seems to be flagging in its last moments. How are you finding the new camera?

[Trina P Holub]

Yucky day, beautiful drip off of that leaf. :-) Soem good comes of everything

[joey d.Muli]

So refreshing-love the droplet and perfect tones !

Nice focus and colours!

[Carolyn White]

@sabresun I love it! I still have a lot to learn. It really needs to stop raining, so I can play with it more! :0)

[Don Roos]

Hi Carolyn. You must be getting our rain [Minnesota]. We are in a drought and have had no rain in 4 months. These unusual weather patterns continue in place for months until they are reversed in a dramatic fashion. There is never any normal weather, it seems.

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

It's beautiful!

[Jenna Richards]

Great focus. The blurred background is beautiful.

[Isabella Thunder]

amazing close up
