I think this is called a Foxglove flower. I took this photo right after a rainstorm and the sparkling water on the flowers were like diamonds.

this is so beautiful, love the raindrops, great macro
lovely drips on the flower here. the colors are brilliant!
The raindrops add to the basic beauty of the flowers. Very nice close up.
shooting foliage after the rain is always a great idea.. fabulous capture here..
Wonderful capture, Andy!
Pure magic, Andy!
So very delicate. It’s beautiful.
The detail of the droplets on the flowers and the colours are just amazing. Beautiful shot!
The dew/ rain drops add a refreshing touch to this image, well done
Beautiful capture. Flowers are always looking great after the rain, just like on your picture !
Great macro! All those little drops are beautiful.
Nature sure made the right colour combination there. That is a super shot.
Love the soft colors..the detail of the raindrops as they hang from the flowers. It is beginning to feel as if this rain will NEVER end..isn’t it?!?!?
The freshness of the shots after the rains can be so beautiful you just wish the time stops here and never moves.
This is amazing floral image.
Beautiful capture of the foxglove, Andy, and yes it is foxglove. Don’t you just love capturing images after a rain?
Buenisima la definicion de esta fotografia, los detalles de las gotas de agua brutales.
Saludos.
Wow. Impressive image. One of my favorites of your shots. Great shot!
Thanks Terry!
Great focus! The out of focus flowers make for an excellent background!
Lovely image Andy. We don’t have foxglove here. I sure do love them though.
