  1. That’s an amazing capture of a droplet! Nice work. I took a photo of several droplets on a tiny grape leaf last season. (Without wearing my glasses!) I was very happy with it πŸ™‚

    1. Thanks! I’d love to see the droplets on the grape leaf. Did you post the photo?

  2. A beautiful image. Beautifully captures the burst of light.

    1. Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment, Alex.

  3. Such a great shot! Did you notice the sun shining on the droplet while taking the picture? Or was it a nice surprise afterwards?

    1. This one was not a surprise. It was along the edge of a meadow with lots of dewdrops/raindrops. I had room to move to the right spot without bumping the branches.

    1. Thanks, Becky. Right time, right place moment.

  4. Mesmerizing πŸ™‚

  5. This is wonderful, I’ve tried doing it but not with a lot of luck.

    1. This was definitely one of those “right time, right place” moments. There was no wind and the raindrop and sun were in just the right spots. The raindrop was also on the edge of the trail so I had room to move around to get at the perfect spot.

  6. It looks like a jewel or a prism – how beautiful!
