All summer, our weather has been “too”: Too hot. Too humid. Too wet. Too windy. Too loud. Did the weather makers misunderstand the memo about it being two-oh-two-oh?
Anyway, not even cloudbursts accompanied by too-close lightning are all bad, especially when the sun comes out all shiny before the water finishes dripping off everything.

Two! We don’t deserve such riches! 😀 Lovely — your camera is good!
Barbara – Many thanks.
Isabel
I’d be happy with either. Both remind me of that song: Raindrops keep falling on my head, they keep falling. Happy thoughts for a Sunday morning.
Tom
Tom – Thanks. As for the song, raindrops keep falling on our heads, for sure, between our droughts! There seems to be no happy medium this year.
Those droplets make perfect lenses. I wonder how big you could enlarge a single droplet to reveal the upside-down view inside?
Jim T
Jim – I think you could enlarge it quite a bit if the original were taken closer (in macro mode). And, of course, it would have to be tack sharp right on the drop, which mine is not. When I zoom in, this is what I get.

And there’s always the risk of magnifying your own camera . . .
