About the Image(s)
We had some heavy rain in Southern California a few weeks ago. When we went to Descanso Garden after the rain we came across flowers with raindrops on the flower pedal; this is a rather unique photo opportunity because it does not rain much in the Los Angeles area. I did a little bit of cropping and color enhancement in LR.

Love the composition, color, and especially the raindrops. I like the changes you made. It also looks like you pushed the background to be a little darker, which I appreciate. Posted: 12/12/2025 12:55:38
Thank you Bollin. Yes, I did darken the background and saturated the color a bit. Posted: 12/18/2025 07:37:48

Well handled Jennie - your processing works well on the raindrops, and darkening the background was a good choice. It's always good to see a slightly unusual flower shot. Posted: 12/18/2025 10:54:42
