On a week that is receiving much rain, people are pretty glum around here. While it's very true that "we can't control the weather," we can control what we do about it. Sure, I hate being cold and wet as much as the next prairie person. But today after a wet trip to and from work, I needed some camera therapy. I just had to stop and smell the smell of the post-rain surroundings for a bit. Today I didn't even have to leave my yard to find something visually intriguing. There's a song that says "Beauty's where you find it" and sometimes you just have to stop and smell the roses - or shoot the Lily.

I love seeing raindrops hold their shape when suspended naturally. They way they are all unique and catch and hold the light appeals to my photographic eye. And I hope you find this one appealing as well - happy to show you what I see!
 

And then I noticed that a ladybug was trying to catch some shelter from the rain today as well.
