A beautiful shot, you should walk the dog some more. He (she) will appreciate the walk, and we will appreciate the photos. Thanks for sharing.

I especially like the dew/rain on the flowers. Great close up.

These are very pretty and you captured them very well. Love the dew on them too.

Thanks everyone!

I agree about the drops on the flowers making a nice effect. At least all the rain we have been getting is good for something.

Thanks! I don't recall seeing them much growing wild in the Northeast USA but my wife says this plant has been growing in the same general area for years. So much for me paying attention.
