    I love rain at night...it's so soothing to listen to the rain when it's late at night and I am cozy inside. Perfect lens for the Spring! Thumbs up.

    It puts me to sleep... nothing like falling asleep to quiet rainfall on the windows. :)

    I have always loved the rain ... even when I was a little kid. There's something so refreshing about it.

    Great lens! I love to sit and watch the rain...especially in a thunderstorm. The smell after a good rain cannot be described.

    Really liked this! Not only to I love rain but your photos of rain falling was cool. If you like to browse lens like I do, mine has a great educational topic with poll questions for my readers to do.

    I love rain -- especially thunderstorms. As long as they don't cause anyone rain-related problems. When I lived on the Florida Gulf Coast, we'd have showers every afternoon like clock-work. It was such a common occurrence that you didn't even stop your activities, as the rain would be short-lived.

    Some years it rains everyday, but we've had little rain this year. I miss it.

    This is a great lens! I live in West Texas where it doesn't rain much, but our thunderstorms are beautiful and always very appreciated

    Nice lens! I really like it. And I love rain. It makes me feel happy, alive, makes me want to go outside and experiance God's full creation. Beautiful rain.

    I love rain so much that I can sit near the window watching it for hours. I also love the beautiful rainbow that manifests in the sky many times. You just brought back a lot of vivid memories of my childhood when I used to soak in the rain.
    Beautiful images and the thought of rain is refreshing.

    I love the rain -- it really does make me feel alive. There are times, though, when rain can be frightening, like the storms that have been happening all too often all over the world these last few years. But you are right -- rain is a sign of God's blessing. Thanks for an inspiring lens!

    As I read your opening, memories of different situations I've been in when it was raining did come to mind. As a child, living in the Philippines, I was scared to death when the monsoons started...relentless rain and thunderous sounds! When I saw your rain boots I totally laughed out loud because before my toddler nephew (now a teen :) would put on his rain boots he always held them up and smelled inside them...don't ask me why, it always made us smile though. Great 'memory' provoking page Barbara, I truly enjoyed my browse today. My Angel Blessing is SWAH :)

    Love the pic with the active rain falling. That is cool! Rain makes me feel different all the time, but it is soothing alot of the times.

    Such a great lens that brings blessing of rain. It's been raining for three days now so this article is the most joyful read.

    Excellent thoughts about rain. I enjoy the rain because I know that God is giving nature a bath and the air needs a refreshing. It's one of God's blessings.

    Walking in the Rain with Johnny Wray is one of the first songs I remember I loved it as a child.

    This is beautifully done! I've always loved the rain and it brings me many different things sometimes just a refreshing and others almost a communion with nature. I love your artistry in presentation and the animations are excellent!

    Thank you. It's Psalm 19. I always think of it when I see the new beauty of each day's sky and sunset.

    I love the sound of rain against the window while I'm working or reading, but I hate the sound of a really heavy downpour or storm. My hubby loves it when it rains at night as he finds it easier to sleep to the sound of rain.

    Wow, Those pics are fantastic. Rain is also. Great lens *-*Blessed*-* and featured on Sprinkled with Stardust - Environment and also on Floods, Drought and Climate Change

    I love rain - I associate it with relaxing days, sleeping in, and just taking it easy - maybe sitting around coloring all day ;) Now that I live in a desert it is great fun seeing all the animals - and people - get so happy and excited when it rains.

    For us, the refreshing season of rain is an yearlong wait,
    When the heat and dust of the scorching summer abate.
    That rain is God’s gracious bounty, is a common refrain,
    But it is He, who bestows as well, the preceding pain,
    To drive home the simple point that everything in life
    Come in pairs: delightful peace and sorrowful strife.
    For without the searing warmth of the equinoxal Sun,
    There can’t be the splendor of rain and the resultant fun.

    Beautiful lens, on all counts. It even made me write a spontaneous ode to it!
  • BarbRad Apr 12, 2010 @ 2:41 am | delete
    And your ode of response is also beautiful. Thank you for adding it.
  • SueM11 Feb 14, 2010 @ 7:58 pm | delete
    Rain is certainly very welcome where I live as it helps to cool things down. Of course too much rain and it will cause flooding!. Love the raining effect you have in your pictures. Just awesome!

    What a beautiful and stunning lens! I love rain but living in Wales, we can sometimes have too much of a good thing.
  • Norma_Budden Feb 8, 2010 @ 1:07 am | delete
    I must admit that I enjoy a gentle mist more than pelting rain. However, I do have fun trying to run between the drops when the rain is falling in heavy torrents. It brings about much laughter; I'm just grateful for the opportunity to get into dry clothing promptly.

    I really love the gentle presentation of your lens; you'll want to check this out... Angel Blessings.

    Beautiful lens... I love gentle rain, even a nice jog in the rain is so refreshing! The way it makes everything so green and lush... loved your introduction paragraphs! God is good! :-)

    I know we need it and if I'm inside I'm grateful for it. But after 3 days of rain, I want to scream for the sun to come back. I was born to live in the sun. beautiful lens and designs!

    The rain makes me want to go outside to float paper boats down the gutters, look for salamanders in the woods or watch drops falling off the tip of a leaf. I love the picture of the little boy in his rain boots.

    My daughter and I rejoiced when we had rain the other day instead of snow! Here's a story of how we handled the clap of thunder when she was little, on: http://www.squidoo.com/creativeparenting

    We're supposed to be getting snow here now .. but it has been raining. We are hoping for more snow as, we too, need it for summer irrigation of the crops. Rain in the summer is most welcome though. I especially liked your biblical YouTube. 5*s and fav.for a great lens.

    Great lens and I like the animated photos. I love the rain, especially in rain forests in Borneo, but the rain here in England can be pretty spectacular too.

    Nice lens! When I'm inside and warm and cozy - love it! When I have to be outside - she emphasized the word "have" - then, not so much! Great pix and affects! 5* etc.

    I love to be in a tent when it is raining and thundering! Great job on this lens! Blessed by an Angel (you can add it to the plexo on my angel lens, if you want).

    I love rain! Especially when I'm camping and I'm cozy in a tent and I can feel the earth shake when it thunders! Great lens! Blessed by an Angel (you can add it to the plexo on

    Rain makes me want to curl up in bed with a good book. I love to listen to it hitting the roof. Your pictures here with the rain falling are really great. 5*
