David,
Beautiful photo. Depicts the subject perfectly. I'll bet the weather in
Costa Rica was a little different from home ;-) ?

An hour or so ago, on one of the other lists, Mark Bohrer posted a
couple of shots depicting rain... as a droplet on the end of a leaf.
(Sorry, I lost his post so cannot quote directly)
I can understand his concern... for unlike snow, rain is very
difficult- no, almost impossible - to portray on film. The droplets
are too tiny, too fast, and unless the light is at the absolutely
perfect angle, it virtually disappears in the shots. No wonder so
many folks try to shoot rain by showing the reflections in puddles,
rain drops on flowers and the like.
About two weeks ago, I got lucky.
