Rain is not only drops of water. Its the love of Sky for Earth. They never meet each other but the Sky sends love this way.

I was told that many flowers have bright colours in the rainforest to stand out in the dense green foliage and attract insects to help with pollination. In the the Chachagua rainforest in Costa Rica (Feb 2016)

Earlier in the year, when I was in Costa Rica, we were staying in a rainforest lodge in Chachagua. Coming from India, I am no stranger to the tropical weather and the monsoons is my favourite season.. But in the rainforest, this fascination is at a completely different level. The rain adds so much…magic…instantly…to the surroundings.

The “freshness” one feel after the rain in the tropics is uncomparable…. it gets cooler, the earth smells, and the rain washes away every thing…as if Nature has just got a thorough scrubbing … 🙂 Like these leaves. In the the Chachagua rainforest in Costa Rica (Feb 2016)
