Eliza Waters 
those are awesome pictures! water droplets on leaves like a rebirth, anew path, something fresh and beautiful, a retraining of renew.
Thanks, Patrick.
did you take the pictures after you watered the garden?
No, it has been very rainy lately.
very rainy? i pray that rainy season would rain on the west coast for a fdew days to help cool it off and water the vegetation and farm fields.
The beauty of natures showers and plants. Lovely Eliza!
Thank you, Cindy!
Love seeing the rain on Alchemilla. Did you get storms? We have had loads of rain again this week too.
Yes, we’ve had close to 8″ since the beginning of July… everything is good and saturated!
Nothing says fresh air like raindrops on a pristine green leaf. Lovely shot, Eliza!
Thank you, Steve!
Beautiful nature! Thank you for sharing, and have a nice Sunday. xx Michael
Thank you, Michael!
you are welcome, Eliza! Have a nice upcoming week! xx Michael
I can smell the fresh, dewy air just looking at this! 💚
Thank you, Isha! x
💛
Lovely, and we sure had plenty of ‘drops’ this week. 🙂
Thanks, Judy. This current weather pattern has been pretty amazing!
Blessed rain…sure glad to get some here too. Plants are signing hallelujah.
Agreed, everything looks so fresh and lush!
Nothing shows off a raindrop like a leaf. Your image is so pretty and fresh-looking.
Thank you, Linda. These furry leaves hold water like mercury, forming pretty pearls!
Beautiful shot!
Thank you, Hien!
A beautiful sight after the drought.
Thank you, Laurie. I imagine our water table is rising after all the rain we’ve had!
Yes! Thank goodness.
stunning photo.. good morning!
Thank you, Dymoon!
Such a beautiful leaf, enhanced by the drops. We got 1 1/2″ & previous storm 4 1/2″…..many thank yous for the rain!
…that was supposed to be 2 1/2″ & 4 1/2″
Thank you, Alice. July is shaping up to be a wet one… no complaints yet, however!
Enjoyed this freshness, Eliza, and the beauty of life on earth.
Thank you, Jet! Lots of rain so far this month.
leaves on a frond
of which i could grow fond~
🙂
Waterdrop gorgeous, Eliza! I think I see some reflections in the larger ones. 🙂
Thank you, Donna!
That’s a really nice shot. I love water drops on botanical structures of all kinds: foliage, flowers, stems.
Thank you, Tina. Those furry leaves pearl up the rain drops nicely!
Looks like you got some rain, too. These leaves almost look like somebody painted droplets onto them!
Thank you, Debbie. July has been quite rainy so far, the plants are happy!
Lovely texture enhanced by the beads of water.
Thank you, Jason!
Beautifully captured Eliza!
Thank you, Xenia!
I love Lady’s Mantle. I killed some years ago. Maybe I will give it another try.
Once it becomes established, it self sows, so you’ll have plenty!

Thank you for reblogging!
I’m even more envious of the raindrops than the Alchemilla.
I can imagine. July has been quite rainy so far, I wish I could send some your way!
I love rain drops on the green of the leaves. So pretty!
Thank you, Belinda!
It is lovely when the raindrops bead the leaves like that.
Thank you, Carol. Fine hairs create that beading, like quicksilver.
It is like quicksilver.
I love raindrops on leaves. You captured it perfectly.
Thank you, Vicki!
You’re very welcome.
Beautiful, Eliza. Love the shape of the leaves and the little jeweled droplets.
Thank you, Dale! Have you been getting a lot of rain as well? What a deluge!
We got some ferocious rain for maybe two days… nothing since!
Oooh, stunning, Eliza. My kind of shot- love it. 🙂
Thank you, Jane. Now you see why I love your photos so much… right up my alley. 😉 And your equipment ‘sees’ so much more than mine, such a treat. ❤
❤️😊
Oh how pretty with the raindrops! Your alchemilla must be enjoying all the rain it’s getting this summer, assuming you’re getting as much as we are…
Thank you, Barbara. I was thinking this morning that June was the ‘hottest on record’ and if this continues, it may be the ‘wettest July on record.’ Rather biblical!
Love the raindrops on the beautifully shaped leaves. 😊
Thank you, Irene. We sure have been getting lots of rain… better than drought any day!
Absolutely. 😊
Beautiful! There is something very tempting about the drops on Lady’s Mantle that make me want to shift them so that the drops coalesce!!! 😉
🙂 Thanks, Allison. Yes, those silvery jewels are so mesmerizing!
Very Nice Eliza!
Thank you, Reed!
Beautiful leaf form, color and of course the rain drops!
Thank you, Susie. With all the rain we’ve had, lots of glitter to be seen!
What a refreshing photo! 🙂 Absolutely gorgeous
Thank you, MB!
So lovely and refreshing, Eliza! 💕
Thank you, Julie! 🙂
A pretty leaf shape and design, and the drops are the icing on the cake!
Thank you, I particularly love the way this plant collects raindrops, most charming!
Always lovely to get in here and catch up with your beautiful work.
Thank you very much, glad to see you here!
