Its been raining heavy, and my photo sessions are limited. Found these blue bells. I have always wanted to make images of them but never ended making any. took me atleast 30 minutes as there was a fine breeze and I was on 1/20

Hi Balan,

These flowers look pretty good with those rain drops. I like how the centers glow.......................Jim

Balan I love your interpretation of the colors of the flowers. For the composition, I would darken the two leaves in the bottom and let them look just look like the other leaves in the BG; that's just a personal feeling of course.

I will have to go with Gigi's take on this, and perhaps crop a bit tighter on the subject. The flowers themselves are lovely, with the water drops in the bottom of the bell a nice lagniappe.

Balan, you got it, even though it did take so long. The blues and the inner glow are spectacular. I like the presentation as is.
