A Soft Day

It was what's called 'a soft day' in Ireland.
A day of gentle rain, a day when the clouds came down and obscured the hills.
A day which could be dreary and depressing but which brings its own beauty in the droplets on leaves and flowers.

I like days with soft rain, the kind where you can get out and about without a lot of inconvenience. And the rainy days make for better colors in some subjects. This is really beautiful. Like little diamonds. V

Those little spheres are just perfect, with a subtly different landscape in each one!

The raindrops look lovely glistening like that and with a feeling of 3D. Beautiful soft day capture, Margaret. V.

Very fine handiwork. Nice focus and exposure in a very close macro. ~V~

Nicely done. The water droplets have an excellent spark compared to the soft background of the soft day.
