DROPLETS

When it rains, you should ALWAYS donate at least a few minutes to your camera, outside, in the garden. Raindrops do to plants what makeup does to a woman. They accentuate and enliven, bringing the plant to life in a way you never dreamed possible. Even though they still look pretty without, plants ALWAYS look better with rain.


Sometimes the rain doesn't sit in perfect drops. That's okay! It still looks good. Sometimes bendy, swirly drops of water add more interest.


If you happen to find some of the perfect droplets, though, don't hesitate to shoot them.


This picture turned out really nice. The leaves are those of a rose bush, shot with the fence in the background. It almost looks desaturated, but it's all natural I assure you.


Stormy sunsets are the best. Where else do you see pink and blue and grey and white like that?


Yeah. You could buy that tie...

You'd look like a damn clown, though.
