These are buds of bluebells (Mertensia virginica) with a bit of rain. The cluster was quite small, the size of a fingertip. From this spring, in a bunch of pictures I finally got around to reviewing.

Good vertical composition that works well with the subject, I like that the drop seems nestled with the buds. Fine shot.

What a visual treat. That little water drop nestled amongst the buds just takes this to the next level. Nice find and really nicely presented.

Excellent and natural looking stack, Tom. One of the finest photos I have seen of the Vir Bluebells.
