I woke up this morning with a laundry list of tasks to finish. Paint some trim, prep some doorways, patch some drywall, mow the lawn. It’s humid here in Vermont; the gentle rains last night and the morning dew meant that I couldn’t yet mow the lawn. Those same rains left some treasures on the irises that line my driveway, so after doing a little sanding, I took some time to appreciate the little things in life. I have photographed these plants and droplets in the past, but somehow they never get old to me.
I remain perpetually fascinated at how perfectly round the water droplets are some mornings, and how on other mornings they cling with all their might, flattening down to hug the leaves.
If you like these, please take a look at some of my other macro & floral photography, or look at my general gallery of artistic photos.
