We’ve often seen Wyoming brown and I’ve seen it partly green but it, like so many other places in the country, had much rain this spring. That meant that conditions were ripe for wildflowers. I loved these shooting stars and I think you can see how wet it was!

Beautiful wetness, Janet.
Thanks, Tish. The funny thing is that I was only trying to get the flower and all the lovely raindrops came as a lovely surprise. 🙂
They made a very fine appearance 🙂
Rain drops on plants always make me smile. Diamonds. 🙂
I love rain/dewdrops, too, Judy, although I must admit I was merely going for the flowers here. But I was very, very happy with the way the photo turned out.
Beautiful!
I just loved these flowers, Aletta.
I love those! Is that Praire Smoke there too laying down in front? It was wet indeed!
I had no idea, but now that I looked it up online, I believe you’re right. I love the shooting stars as well as the Prairie Smoke (s?). Yes, it was very wet, so many lovely drop shots. 🙂
It sure did look like Prairie Smoke, but weighted down with dew and not standing upright. I only see it in the high country. I remember the first time I learned what it was I was hiking up one of the trails to Mt. Shasta. I’ve never forgotten it. The meadow and ridge was covered in them and the view from there was stunning.
I love the fine hair on the edges of the leaves. A great combo with the water droplets.

Thanks very much, Allan. The fine hair was a bonus just like the drops. Worked out well, didn’t it? 🙂
Very well, Janet. It’s a great photo.

Beautiful
Thanks. 🙂 I fell in love with them…and so many others.
I love water drops, Janet but we had more than our share this year. That’s a beautiful photo.
We too have had more than our share, especially between Naperville and Wyoming! But those drops do make beautiful photos.
They do 🙂
I feel refreshed just looking at the beautiful image!
It does the same for me. Glad you enjoyed it.
Gorgeous! Are they cyclamen, Janet? 🙂 🙂
They are shooting stars.They’re only about 8 inches high.
They look like miniature cyclamen. Very pretty 😍💕
They do. I fell in love with them.
😍
Such a pretty capture!
Thanks, Joey. I loved these.
Oh, what a splendiferous picture!
It was all rather splendiferous, Marian, sometimes to the point of being overwhelmingly beautiful.
Magnificent capture! Such details can be seen!
Thanks, Robert. I’m happy you liked it.
