I do like the rain. I enjoy that cozy feel of being under a blanket and seeing a movie or reading a book. Eating even. I like that earthy smell that comes with it too, Petrichor. I like the splash of water when I stay close. I like the afteramath too- that droplets on leafs. Sometimes it gets all muddy and irritating though, and today I did laundry (as usual), and I was hoping for some sunshine to dry them clothes, but it only came sparingly. I decided I was going to take a walk with a friend and have a look around the compound, take some photos maybe.

I saw the tree branches and water droplets all over them, for sure I was going to take a photo of it. Now here is where the problem started. So it turns out that my supposedly advanced phone wasn't so much advanced. The camera didn't have a macro lens. I was really disappointed. I sure would have enjoyed that. Luckily, the friend of mine that came along with me had a Tecno Camon 16, and the it had a macro lens. I know it's crazy, my Camon 17 didn't have one, but hers did. Makes me wonder if we are going backwards or forward. Anyways, I used her device and got a way much better photo. Looks surreal.

Now this is The Ageratum Conyzoides also known as the Billy Goat weed. Okay yeah I had to Google that. I couldn't possibly have had that in my mind could I? I like how tiny and colorful they always look.
And then below are a couple of other cool shots I took while taking the walk. It is quite a lovely evening you see. Happy weekend. Cheers.

The macro lens is important, but you still took beautiful, well-crafted photos.
Great job @ stevenson7
Thank you so much guys. 😌
Very beautiful photos, I love how the yellow flowers look, even the drops look great, I like it when it rains in the early morning, you wake up and still have time to sleep and relax even more with the sound of the rain. They look great!
THANK YOU SO much for your kind words. that second round sleep is gold.
It's nice that you were ultimately able to get the pictures that you wanted. Good thing for friends!
exactly. Thank You so much
