Pictures for Pam, Day 133: Droplet-Covered Blackberry Leaves

(+2 insets!)

One of the things about our spring weather patterns is that it can be beautiful one day and pouring cats and dogs the next. Yesterday was a beautiful, sunny day dappled with huge armies of puffy clouds. Today, however, it started off with a small glimpse of sun which was soon covered by a bank of brooding clouds which moved in and covered the sky with shades of grey. Though it seemed that it would pour all day, it's merely been threatening. I thought I'd urge the issue by walking down to the gate to get the mail. That did the trick! By the time I got to the mail box the first drops began to fall and I hot-tailed it up to the house with my three pieces of junk mail. Into the trash with you!

Since it's wet, cold, and pretty unpleasant outside, I thought I some droplet-covered blackberry leaves would be a good choice for today. It's interesting to me how beautiful some blackberry leaves are as they die--as pretty as autumn's leafy butterflies! I have an additional image of blackberry leaves as an inset as well as an picture of an oak and manzanita leaf laying on some moss which turned out nicely!

Pam, it was a fun task to look up "droplet" on your stream…oh the choices! :D I ended up picking your image of acacia leaves drizzled with needed rain ! So pretty. I think those leaves are so elegant and even prettier with droplets on them! I hope that you are having a good day! *BIG HUGGGGZZZZ* from southern Oregon! :)

What amazing colours! I don't think I've ever notice that before on blackberry leaves............I'll have to look more carefully it seems..!! An astonishingly beautiful image Janet!

The images in the PiPs are also really lovely...........my fave is the 2nd PiP. The moss makes a super background for the dead leaves and the colour combination and fine details are fantastic!

I hope you're enjoying your weekend, in spite of the weather :-) One consolation with rain is that when it's over, everything is left fresh and clean, which I really like!
