morning rain

It rained yesterday.  And on into the night.  I was actually a little disappointed because I was somewhat in the mood to capture a sunset, some stars or the moon last night; however, the rainy skies had other ideas.  When I awoke this morning, my first thought was…. great.  still yucky out.  But the drizzle stopped and I jumped outside – or walked – with my camera in search of some raindrops.  If you’ve followed me for very long at all then you know raindrops make me giddy.  Today was no exception.

I super stoked to stumble upon that spider web with gorgeous drops of water all over it.  The wind was blowing a bit so I had a hard time focusing but am still pretty pleased.  And all before my morning coffee!

Hope you’ll come by this weekend and link up to iPhoneography!  Have a great day!

    Okay- I’m jealous. We actually had some rain on Monday (posting about it tomorrow) & these are what I envisioned my photos of it looking like. Even while it was falling it didn’t get that soaking that I could get a decent drop to photograph. Grrr- I will have to just sit here & drool over your shots!!!

    These are really beautiful. I love the greenery and the droplets. I think that second one is my favorite. I love the contrast of the red!

    great shots! I’ve been dying to try dew drop on spider web shots ever since I got a macro lens, but we haven’t gotten any rain lately!
