The vibrant leaves of orange, green and red turn even brighter once the rain falls, transforming the deep shades into impossibly striking hues of color.

While the sun has its own beauty, rain add a whole new dimension to any landscape. And those aspects are especially striking on fall foliage.

There’s just something about falling drops landing on leaves that enhances the beauty of the surroundings.

Although the air can be chilly, toss on a windbreaker and take a good look around. The vibrant leaves of orange, green and red turn even brighter once the rain falls, transforming the deep shades into impossibly striking hues of color.

Every flaw on a leaf is magnified. The precipitation makes those imperfections quickly stand out on a glossy, wet leaf, giving each one its very own artistic individuality.

Then there is the weight of the rain which causes the foliage to droop downwards in clusters of leaves containing all variations of color.

The autumn magnificence is also evident when drops of the clear liquid hang on a leaf’s edge, seemingly waiting for the perfect moment before falling silently to the ground.

The thick covering of fallen leaves serves as a reminder just how brief fall truly is before the ground and trees become barren. And the anticipation begins for the next season.
