Wild Rose with Raindrops. Our summer monsoon rains in Sedona were quite late this year (2023), but they finally arrived. That gave this humble little blossom near our house a chance to display the results of its pre-dawn shower, and my new camera welcomed the opportunity to show off what it loves to do.

Tech info: Nikon Z 8 camera with Sigma 105mm macro lens, 1/200 sec. at f/22, ISO 400
