It started to rain at around 3:30 in the afternoon. I was already alone; my sister went to the salon to have her hair cut and dyed.
The rain is still going on but it was nice we did not have power outage. I went out and I noticed these drops of rain dripping along the bamboo holding the tarpaulin so rain won't come in the veranda.
Oh, if only I have a high tech camera, it would be nice but I just use my phone's camera. So I cannot take good picture of the raindrops.

yes hija. the typhoon named Karding, according to Kuya Kim, won't land as typhoon but it stays up only, so only winds and some rains might fall.

You just have to adjust the focus of your phone camera. A lot of phone cameras work like dslr these days.

@ridingbet The focus adjustment is usually on the screen itself. You just have to tap the area where you want the camera to focus. And don't worry, a lot of people don't know about that.

) of the camera features of the phone. i just edit it but i do not know where to adjust the focus. i will check on the phone later.

why don't you like rain anymore? maybe because it creates floods and traffic as well?
