I am smiling, Mary!

Isn't it amazing?
- I would have cloned that little bug out of the image and you have included him in a most enchanting story-telling way - by given it the perfect title.
I SO love that.

My eyes were immediately drawn to the bug.
And it's so darn cute - the way he's hiding from what to him must seem like awful big drops!! HEHE!

And it's a most lovely image with fantastic drops and great perspective. #10951647

SO BEAUTIFUL Mary, I love how delicate this flower is, VERY well done!!! <>< #10953398

Peek a boo! We see you! Smart little guy. Who says insects don't have brains? More brains than I have apparently because I love walking in the rain! :) Of course I use an umbrella, unless in Hawaii, so I guess me and the bug are on equal playing levels!? Eh? HeeHee.

I love seeing your world, Mare. Beautiful job!

First of all you did such a beautiful job with the flower, the close up and the rain drops. Beautiful sharpness to the details and the white of the flower brings them out even more. You got the perfect pov with the little ant just peeking its head out to see if it stopped raining. Incredible camera work and a beauty deer friend. Have a wonderful weekend. #10954748
