Peneda and Gerês National Park. Portugal


There´s nothing like an early morning walk among the woods and forests of Gerês Mountain Range during the very peak of Autumn colors. Well, but this photo is not about this. Yet After some hours raining intensively, a cloudy sky, absence of wind some interesting details captured my attention, conditions were great for outdoor macros. The perfectness of the water drops along this leaf made this shot worth the time I spent trying to capture the "ideal" shot.
