Message ... not sure I really have one, except flowers look pretty in the rain and, um, they're soft.

The first of the clematis flowers just opened today in a gentle rain and I thought they would look nice softened. So I shot one, with plastic wrap over the lens.

PP - converted from RAW, cropped, flipped, levels, white balance, increased saturation and contrast, added border, resized, sharpened with noise reduction.

I like the white against the green and the raindrop hanging on the leaf adds a nice touch.
