Rock the Shot Forum {www.rocktheshotforum.com} has a monthly photo contest and this month’s theme is WATER! Perfect theme for April. Because April showeres bring May flowers, right? At least that is what my 2nd grade teacher told me! 
Some history on my submission: Last month, my husband and I were going through a period where we just missed each other. He was working crazy long hours at work, I was busy busy busy with Spring Sessions and we looked at each other one day and said “We have to get away!” So he researched some places and planned a beautiful day trip for us to head to head up to Dupont State Forest. Side Note: This is where they filmed some of “The Hunger Games” movie! The trip was wonderful, and much needed. Just us and nature! We finally hiked to an area where we could lie on the rocks, with a waterfall above us and one below. And just as I got cozy in his arms – it started to RAIN. Out of nowhere! It was so unexpected, and so much fun! We hiked a little farther up to the covered bridge area, had the picnic we brought and watched it rain. Being stuck in the rain, in the middle of nowhere with the love of my life is now one of my favorite memories!
This is a photo I took while looking down from the bridge. I loved watching the patterns of the raindrops on the water below. Technical Details: f4.8, 1/125 second. I edited it a bit in Lightroom using Split Toning, adding some highlights and shadowing.
