An image of trees caught within a raindrop held by a small twig from a branch. I called the image ‘Twig Globe’ because it reminds me of a snow globe (without the snow 😉 ). It also reminds me of something from Lord of the Rings – but I’m not sure why. I’ve just finished watching the trilogy on DVD so it’s possible that many things will remind me of LOTR – for a while …….

Seriously. This is CRAZY good. I love to take photos of raindrops and on rare occasions, I will get a little bit of colour or a blurred reflection. This is stunning. And, I know how tough it is to get! Congrats on being in the right place and the right moment.

You are getting really good at these, M, and I’m loving this new series. I can’t wait for an end to constant sub-freezing temperatures here and the return of water to its most natural (to my way of thinking) state–liquid!

Thank you, Gary! ‘Water water everywhere’ seems apt here at the moment. There seems to be no end to the rainstorms coming in from the Atlantic. People are having to be evacuated from their homes, an important piece of railway – a gateway to the West of England – has collapsed, and houses are collapsing into the sea.

Yes, your wonderful picture reminds me of the gazing ball that one of the hobbits (Pippin) looked into. It showed a white dead tree in a courtyard of stone.

Ah – it was mentioned at home that there was such a scene. I shall have to look again. Thank you very much, Wendy.

Great picture – at first take, it makes me think of some malevolent worm or caterpillar, with a huge eye, rearing up from the branch. The detail within the droplet is wonderful!
V glad you’ve seen LOTR – it should be required viewing! Does the droplet remind you of looking into the distorted view shown in a palantir (?spelling), those great globes by which Sauron could see all and keep in touch with his minions???

Yes – I thought of a worm too!
LOTR is an amazing trilogy. I never read the books but will make time to do so now. Yes – I think one of the scenes with the palantir does remind me of this.
It has taken me longer to type this reply as I caught my right index finger in a door at work yesterday and it is all bandaged up. Throws one’s touch typing straight out of the window.
Many thanks, Adrian.
