I was sitting in my parked car talking to a friend when I realized the rain on my windshield was creating multiple inverted images of the large tree in front of me.

I don't think I'd ever noticed the images contained in rain drops before this, so it was a unique discovery for me. Photo taken by Amanda Carlisle (United States) - Artistic/Creative

Driving home trying to stay ahead of a big lighting storm, I noticed the sun gleaming on some wheat fields near the foothills. I stopped to take a picture of the wheat blowing in the wind, and as I was leaving I took a picture of the road. I was pleasantly surprised of how dramatic a road through the wheat can be.
