The Ocean, In a Raindrop

My obsession with water droplets is well-established at this point. I literally have thousands of photos of raindrops.

Perhaps there are times when I don't welcome the wet, Pacific Northwest weather, yet – when viewed through a macro lens – I've never met a raindrop I didn't absolutely adore.

I'll do my best to make you fall in love with them, too.

what an amazing friend image looks soft and relaxing, in my opinion it is the best thing to relax and clear the mind I have a habit that I take the drops and put them in a glass making shapes is something that relaxes me very much greetings from Venezuela

Thanks so much @musicayfarandula! I also find water drops relaxing, though I go hunting for them rather than creating shapes with them. Sorry for my late reply! tip!

I'm glad you think so @adeyemidrey – it's simply a raindrop on a plant! ;) I apologize for not replying sooner! tip!

@derangedvisions photo contest this week was water...

Thinkin' I'm a weeeeee bit late for that. HA! Ah well...maybe next time.

Amazing shot. Some times something as simple as a drop of water on a piece of glass can be one of the most beautiful things you see in a day.

So.very.true! Especially for the droplet obsessed such as myself. I sincerely get lost for hours, falling in love with every single raindrop I meet after a spring shower. I imagine I look like a crazy person! • tip!
