The last few days have been rainy days for us. But each morning, when I looked out of the window, I see the sun slanting in the east lighting the dew drops that are on the ground. The grass blades and the fallen leaves glitter under the light. Though I am not an early morning person, I got out to take a not so few pictures with NURTURE PHOTOGRAPHY’s and LETSBEWILD’s themes in mind, i.e., yellow/light and Fall, respectively. I am fascinated by dew and raindrops, and the leaves on the ground added a new dimension to them – that singularly autumn atmosphere. My husband says that I have this fascination for fallen leaves – which may be true – because I associate autumn with death and decay. Whether that is true or not, the colored leaves on the ground make for a beautiful sight and they become even more so with the little shining crystals and when viewed in the light.

I am joining Kristi and Rebecca, hosts of Nurture Photography, and LETSBEWILD with this post. Feel free to join with your photos and to visit the gorgeous entries. :0 Thank you and have a great weekend.
I’m participating in the LetsBeWild.com Wild Weekly Photo Challenge! This weeks Challenge is: Fall

Breathtaking shots! Love them all!
Imelda! What stunning and gorgeous photos! Absolutely worth waking up early for! Wishing you and your family a great weekend, Sharon
I just loved what you did with this post. Excellent pictures. I too love watching dew drops of leaves. And you captured it so beautifully here. Great post, Imelda. Awesome work.
Beautiful detail in the pictures especially of the dew drops….Diane
Your close ups are just beautiful. My favorite one is the red and yellow leaves, with the grass blade shadow showing through the yellow leaf.
My fav is the first picture. The drops made me think of a small bird or duck.
Now that you pointed it out, it does look like a bird, a little glass bird. 🙂 Cute. 😀
Lovely shots!
You have to be very patient to get shots like that, but you were, and now you have them forever! Nice.
Lovely close-ups! Walking in the dew is awesome.
Yeah, it is nice to walk in the dew and see the little circles of light around them. I just did that this morning after a frost. It was pretty. Thanks for the visit, lagottocattleyal. 🙂
Great post – and CONGRATULATIONS on being selected as the winning contributor on the Let’s Be Wild challenge! The images are all stunning!
