Challenged to break the photography rules recently and came out with this. Actually like this image of a lingering daisy touched by rain.

I found this rather tricky as it was slightly windy and the rain droplets were so tiny, I could only just make out there was some pink in one of them and hoped for the best. The refracted image is of a potted azalea plant about 4 metres away sitting on the patio with foliage behind it. Every tiny movement I made, along with the wind blowing, meant it was difficult to maintain focus. I know I really should use a tripod but I like shooting freehand, I was therefore really thrilled with this. :D

Decided to go on an adventure despite the weather. Most people will not venture out in the rain, I welcome it. I think it adds a special ethereal look to the scene. This was taken on the way up to Mount Adams.

It was raining heavily. This was the only shot I got from the Empire State Building as my husband warned me I would damage the camera unless I put it away. :(

We have a habit of naming the birds we see on a regular basis. This is Lorraine. One of the biggest Redtails I have ever seen. She gave me quite a show today, with plenty of photo ops in some fantastic lighting.

It's been proper wintry weather for much of the week, with lovely sunny and frosty mornings. However, I was at work and now it's the weekend, it's back to blowing a hooley with heavy rain. Nevertheless, I now have an image that resembles asteroids in macro outer space. :)

This is my one "archived" image... Whenever I think of the color blue, this image always crops up in my head. I was lucky enough to have it featured in the Beyond Wanderlust magazine as part of the Cities in Color Project.

It's been a while since I've shared any of my "horse show" shots, so I thought I would throw up this little candid of a rider getting a pep talk before her "go" in a trail class.

The weather's been so awful, it's been making me grumpy because I can't go out to try some macro photography. However, someone must have felt sorry for me because whilst it was raining when I was out walking Ruby Dog, it stopped just for a few moments upon returning home. I popped straight out into the garden and had a go at this. Not sure I was supposed to peer directly at the sun trying to come out through the droplet, before it was completely covered again with cloud again...

Often woke at or before dawn on Panama Canal cruise. This morning, a full day at sea, was blessed with a double rainbow arch in the ocean cumulus clouds from the rising sun.

Just a little flower taking a little shower...

Winter 2015 in Niagara Falls, NY. There is no snow to be seen, and the temperatures in the 50s F. But we saw a beautiful rainbow.

Re-share of an older image that I still love.

Gotta pick up that camera and make use of whatever is handy

I've not had time for much photography practice lately and, I think I've also gone off it. :( I forced myself outside to have a go after a heavy rain shower.

On my way to work one very cold winter morning

I pulled the focus of this shot to the right with lighting, this little girl just out of focus was in all the third barrel shot (this is the barrel the horses explode with power to make the run home), I shot over 500 images that day and didn't notice her at first until post processing, the more I saw her, the more I could see the story behind the picture, the focus will soon be on this little cowgirl because one day she is going to win it all ......

Some toys get left behind,
Abandoned to the rains,
Or the pockets of watchful mothers,
And idle passersby.

Mist or rain always inspires me to create something different. Such was the case with this beautiful flower.

Nature creates drama in many forms. I am honored to capture just a moment of it!

I love this group. I'm inspired to try new things from the members that post their work, and I'm also "reminded" of photos I have that might just need a different type of edit. This idea is one I got from Darren Eves when he posted a similar picture a few hours ago. I'm not trying to copy his style, yet just seeing what his style for his photo does for my photo. I didn't ask for settings or editing tips, just tried to see what I could do. Thanks Darren!

Loving this set. <3

Captured after a rainstorm

Moving on to something new, truck was left to ponder life.

...and my obsession with bicycles continues...

But wait! THere's more!

Too much fun was had today

Too much fun.
All the fun.

Dry, dry summer and everything's dead. One night of rain and the flowers cropped up the next day. All over the place!

Not the best image, I had to set my camera on the hood of my car since my tripod is broken. I liked the way the moon was breaking through the clouds and the flare adding the red and oranges really made it look cool.

Sometimes you like a shot for NO APPARENT REASON.

It had been raining heavily so I couldn't resist scouting around outside with the camera.

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens.. Just a few of my favorite things..

NO, this is NOT fake water with a spray bottle, this is truly after a natural rain storm we had from a rose bush my husband got me for after we moved in our house on mother's day weekend. My first bush I got for the home.

Watched the California Storm roll in while at Sequoia National Park. I love that you can see the rain in the distance and the layers of mountain ranges. The sky opened up and dumped on our way down the hill!(image)

Caught this at a local garden store...you're really not supposed to bring in your cameras, but I'm a rule breaker.

This was taken on slide film then scanned. This is a little girl who lives in the rainforest of Costa Rica.

This flower looks hungry.

Wilted flowers perk up quickly after the rain.

Water! From the sky! Hopefully this helps the spread of all the fires in my province right now. At least a little.

Puddles forming quickly.

We need this rain so badly right now and I think I have never been so happy to see it rain so hard. This is a photo of rain falling on concrete, if that gives scale to just how hard it was coming down.

So beautiful, I was amazed by the colours

Look close enough and this bug's eyes look like a rainbow - or Jupiter.
