Hawthorn Buds


 Yesterdays visit to Ferrymoor Flash was after the night before when we had a large down poor of rain. Everything was glistening in the morning sunshine and it gave me the opportunity to capture this shot of Hawthorn Buds. The circles of highlights are out of focus raindrops. Some photographers get this effect by carrying a spray bottle of water but I prefer the real thing. You may have not noticed but part of this images has been used as a background for this website.
