Credit Where It is Due
I like to make photographs, and I enjoy being praised for what I have done. But God teaches a different attitude, one of thankfulness and humility. He pointed that out to me recently. I DO NOT MAKE THESE PHOTOGRAPHS ALONE. I didn't create the light, or the technology which makes photography possible. I didn't buy my camera, it was a gift from my husband. I didn't give myself the ability to see through the camera in order to make an image which others find pleasing. It is right to use what I have been given to the best of my ability, but it is wrong to take credit for what I have not done. God made the light, the elements which are used to manufacture the camera, and the world from which these images come. He has given me gifts: people to teach me, eyes to see with, and a brain to process information. I am thankful for these gifts. He deserves all the praise, not I.

I know all about rain! We have enjoyed Autumn rains and chills for several days! But there is beauty in the rain as your photo shows!
Lovely! The misty background adds such atmosphere.

That's a lot of rain! You make it look so beautiful.
I've tried to capture rain but have never been as successful as you are here... beautiful, Dimple!
This looks like a pen and ink drawing with charcoal for the background. Such a nice capture.Isn’t it amazing how rain can add so much feeling to a picture. genie
Nicely handled.
This is a beautiful shot, with a background as interesting as the foreground... I love the rain and a view like this is right down my alley.
