Too much rain here in the SF Bay Area too! I'm ready to get out and take some new pix soon, if it ever dries up enough...-Pam :idea: "There is more to life than increasing its speed. -- Mahatma Gandhi"
I like this.
Did you use selective focus or adjust aperture for depth of field comp ?.
Really like two worlds represented here.
Clear, crisp on the inside, misty,foggy outside.You have captured the essence very well Glenn.
Yeah, the S.F. Bay Area right now is 180 % above average rain for this time of year,Also rainfall records that have stood for 100 years have been exceeded...aaargh!
I think alot of people are ready for a taste of spring/summer.
So many kind comments. Thank you.
We'll see how soon some deranged soul puts a " 2 " or even a " 1 " on it as they have on the others. Never mind, it must satisfy something inside, I suppose.
The FZ20 was on Macro setting, manual focussing and the aperture 2.8 with the lens almost touching the glass. The rest was the weather ! !
Eugenia: we woke this morning to find a carpet of snow and more coming down. It stopped during the late afternoon.
Think we've had enough now. As Spring is so short in this country, if it doesn't start soon we'll miss it altogether !Learn as if you were going to live forever. Live as if you were going to die tomorrow - Gandhi
Carl : You're a good mate and more understanding than certain others.
BUT, I can promise you that, whatever the mood was yesterday, it was due to the weather rather than anything else.
Just thought I'd try to get SOMETHING positive out of it.

Very nice shot Glenn, and your caption is so apt. We had a snowfall just over one week ago but it melted within a few hours and I'm thinking it's the last one now for a few months. PS your windows look very clean ;-)
You're lucky if you've said goodbye to it, Alex. We actually had sunshine yesterday but this morning we woke to more snow which turned into sleet and then rain. Cloudbase 100 feet - cold and miserable. The windows? Either you're being even kinder than usual or need new glasses. Thank You !Learn as if you were going to live forever.

wow!! i love the little worlds contained in each rain drop. although i have also been a recipient of wayyyyy too much rain this year i still try to find outdoor images but have been intimidated this year 'cause it just seems to go on and on and on......
in the words of a world famous philospher:
"I yam what i yam and that's all what i yam!"
Glenn, that's because I can barely focus through my own windows, so your window looks nice. Even my ladybug had dust on it! Next post will be a close-up of a dust bunny, you'll see.
j/k!!!!
Glad you got the extra exposure buddy!
