The Blessings of Rain

Most people think that the best time to take photos of flowers is when it is bright and sunny. Actually I have found that an even better time is when it is cloudy and overcast. The light is more even and you don't get over exposure photos. If you have ever tried to shoot a bright yellow or white flower when it is sunny, you will know what I mean. It ends up way over exposed and faded. Today was perfect. It was not only cloudy, but it was also raining, leaving dew drops on the flowers. When God provides the rain, it is not just to nourish the flowers, but it also gives them a special beauty that can only come from Him!
