Finally, the rain is here! I know that might sound strange because a lot of people would rather have clear skies, but I can’t help it, I get genuinely excited whenever the weather shifts like this. Not because I enjoy getting soaked, but because rain has a way of upgrading nature’s details in the most effortless way.
After the downpour, I went out to look for small scenes that usually get ignored. And of course, the leaves were the first to catch my attention. The raindrops sat on the surface like tiny glass beads, holding their shape for just a little while before slipping away. I love how temporary it is, like nature giving you a short window to notice something beautiful before it disappears.
What I also noticed is how rain changes the mood of everything around it. Even when the world looks gloomy, the textures become richer. The wet leaves look deeper, the shadows feel softer, and every droplet adds a kind of quiet drama. Even the fence and tangled lines in the background started to look more interesting once they were touched by water. In black and white, it feels even more timeless, less about the weather itself, and more about the atmosphere it creates.
I’m sharing these photos today in the hope that you’ll enjoy them too. And maybe they’ll remind you that “bad weather” can still bring good moments, especially if you’re willing to look closer.
Have a good day ahead.
