19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Spring Rain

Hope in a time of fear and isolation. This photo was taken on a walk in April 2020 on a mid-day break from virtual work. I decided to go despite rainy weather and feeling exhausted and ill. I was very excited to discover this Cotinus bearing raindrops amidst green groundcover.
