Rain Droplets on Aloe Succulent

Posted by Don Smith (California, United States) on 4 April 2008 in Landscape & Rural.

A rainy spring day caused droplets to form on this aloe succulent my wife had planted in our backyard. I used a Canon 100mm macro plus an EP25 extension tube to capture this intimate look. I find many people putting their cameras away on rainy days; for most pros, the opposite is true - bad weather ususally means great images!
