Hey guys, it was raining here in Farnham today. It was the rain that 'gets you wet really quickly' and I know some of you know what I mean  at least I hope so  You know, the drizzly, poor attempt to break out in storm that just doesn't happen. Well, it was like that and I leaned out of my window and plucked a leaf from a bush outside. The leaf was covered in rain. At the time I was photographing for a studio project...so what I did was substituted the project subject for this leaf...
Here it is  
Make sure you click the image to get it in full size with no pixelation.
Hope you like it

Nice pic, Nick. You have caught that just right. I like the way it caught the light. . . Seems like there IS always a photo opportunity, whatever the weather

Nice one Nick.
I know what you mean about being bored, I've been stuck in doors again, meaning I've been doing more of those water droplet type shots!
I've posted them on the close up thread, I hope you don't mind me posting them here as well.  
Took me just about all day and hundreds of shots to get these two.

Thanks for the kind comments guys. As you liked it, I decided to persevere and attempt a rather special image. This was my best attempt 
Again, to see it in full quality, don't forget to click it to show the actual size
