Rain and more rain

This is an interesting image. The original photo had rain dripping from a patio uubrella. The top of the umbrella and the sky were all white, so when the pie piece was taken for the kaleidoscope all it left was a little tuft of green from a nearby tree. So I backfilled with black and the image above is the result. The grey area above is the edge of the umbrella, if you look close you may be able to see the rain drops. We had two days of rain this week. Here in semi arid Colorado any moisture is appreciated, but this was a bit much. The red in the middle is a Japanese maple.
