Default Dreary

Just another dreary, wet Alabama January day.

Crucify me.

I love it.

it captures well the 'dreary' atmosphere. the only thing I'd do is to crop out the stick you see on the top left... it draws the eye into that corner and out of the photo.

I like it!
Could you have opened up the aperature more and made the background sticks even softer?
Nice shot on a dreary day.

It is a nice shot, the top right branch seems moving, its a bit distracting

Other than that I love the droplet!

Very nicely composed except for the twig on the top LHS as pointed out by our friend earlier.
I am a user of the Pentax istDl too and am surely pleased with the result.
