Bill from Los Altos, United States
I am always amazed at how much talent you have for a lady that's still in school. I will watch your name in photography - if you keep up this work for years to come: you have the makings of a named artist worldwide. Great image of a common scene. I love it.

@Kaveh: Thank you!
@chrissy: I know, lately the sky cries a lot where I live too!

Well captured Eletheria! Are they tears of joy or sadness? ;-)

Beautiful capture. Fresh rain drops washing way the sorrow and bringing the joy of Spring.

Exquisite photograph for this Holy Day. The music in the Orthodox Liturgy is as close to heaven as I expect get in this life. Did you know that there is a strong connection between Orthodox spirituality and Celtic spirituality?

@Ajay: Thank you!

Cristyan from Santa Clara, Cuba
Like it for stock photography, but too formal, therefore meaninless even more in your personal photoblog. Other hand: tha capture is great, as the white balance and I really appreciate the diagonal focus line.

@Cristyan: Thank you! Welcome to my page! I took it back some months ago, I was almost 10 years old.
