明け方まで降っていた雨は止み、急速に天気は回復して日差しがでてきました。

こういう時は雨の雫が朝日を受けて輝きます。

青いアサガオの花越しに、草の上にできた雫を逆光から狙いました。

雫の形が球形に近いので、雨の残りというより草が出す朝露かと思われます。

笹などの植物は体内の余分な水分を外へ排出したものが、葉の先などに球形の雫となったものです。

雨の雫は水の量が多いので形が崩れやすいですが、こちらの雫は球形になるのが特徴です。

朝日を強く反射しているので、マイナス補正をかけて白飛びを防止、RAW現像時にシャドウ部だけ露出を戻しています。

The rain, which had been falling until dawn, has stopped, and the weather is rapidly improving and the sun is shining.

At times like this, the drops of rain shine in the morning sun.

I took this backlit photo of the drops on the grass over the blue morning glory flowers.

The drops are almost spherical in shape, so I think they are morning dew from the grass rather than remnants of rain.

Plants such as bamboos have expelled excess water from their bodies, which forms spherical drops on the tips of their leaves and other parts of the plants.

Rain drops tend to lose their shape because of the amount of water, but these drops are characterized by their spherical shape.

Since they reflect the morning sun strongly, I applied a negative compensation to prevent white-outs, and then underexposed only the shadow areas when developing the RAW image.
