Nothing beats that earthy, fresh smell after rain - petrichor! Nature’s own fragrance, signaling fresh beginnings. Especially refreshing in this scorching Boston weather. Fascinating stuff. #Petrichor #SmellOfRain #Rain #Nature #Science

The science behind the smell o...

Viele kennen diesen besonderen Geruch vor einem Gewitter. Ob es nun Ozon ist oder die feuchte Erde – irgendwas liegt da oft in der Luft. #gewitter #regen #natur #petrichor #petrichormoment

Lots of people waking up to the sweet smell of #petrichor - last big rainfall here was end of Feb and can almost feel the plants heaving a sigh of relief 🌱🌧️

Here in West Yorkshire we’ve had hot dry weather for what seems like forever, but it is finally raining. I’ve just been standing in my kitchen doorway watching the rain fall in the glow of a streetlight. It smells beautiful. That smell (petrichor) is caused by geosmin, a chemical produced by bacteria. We are so sensitive to it that we can smell it in concentrations as low as 4 parts per billion. #rain #petrichor #geosmin

Night. A back yard with a green/blue shed and a range of acers and other plants in pots. There is a streetlight in the background and you can just make out the rain in the orange glow of the light.

[JEUNE FILLE AU SOLEIL]
Sans doute mon dessin préféré du dernier inktober réalisé au numérique. Le thème était #sun et j'avais choisi de dessiner une japonaise typique de manga en kimono traditionnel qui surprend le retour du soleil après la pluie.
Un peu de douceur que vous pouvez trouver dès à present sur mon site internet en format 20x20

Das Bild zeigt eine Szene mit einem dramatischen Himmel, der von dunklen, bedrohlichen Wolken überzogen ist, die auf anstehenden Sturm hindeuten. Im Vordergrund sind grüne Blätter eines Baumes sichtbar, die in den Himmel ragen. Die Blätter sind frisch und leuchtend, was auf eine gesunde Vegetation hinweist. Im Hintergrund sind weitere Bäume mit dichtem Laub zu sehen, die in verschiedenen Grüntönen erscheinen, was auf eine Vielfalt an Pflanzenarten hinweist. Zwei Straßenlaternen mit klassischem Design sind sichtbar, die in der Mitte des Bildes stehen und auf eine gepflegte Umgebung hinweisen. Der Himmel ist stark kontrastierend mit den dunklen Wolken, die eine bedrohliche Atmosphäre schaffen. Die Szene vermittelt ein Gefühl von Natur und Stille, trotz der anstehenden Wetterveränderung.

Really nice walk after the rain.. the leaves are still fresh and new, softly glowing.

I know the English word for " earthy smell after rain" is #petrichor, from Ancient Greek.

But what about the "vibrant colours, soft lighting, extra-loud birdsong"?

Maybe another language has one for this phenomenon? (Looking at you, German!)

View from a high point, looking out over rolling grass meadows and wooded hills. Tall shadowed pine trees frame the view on left and right, sun peeping through the branches. The sky is powder blue with softly lit ragged clouds. The whole landscape is glowing with the soft evening light.

#Moss can release scents to attract flies, mites or springtales to transport their spores. "If #mosses could smell, #petrichor and #geosmin would be their favourite scents - they are messengers of water." Not only their sexlife is fascinating: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/moss-the-emerald-treasure/id1630784381?i=1000707856049

Fun #smell fact: #petrichor, the distinctive odour that occurs when it rains after periods of dry weather, is caused by a chemical (geosmin) emitted by bacteria in the soil. For reasons that are unclear, humans are extraordinarily sensitive to geosmin, being able to detect concentrations as low as four parts per billion. Perhaps somewhere in our evolutionary history this ability helped our ancestors detect and seek out water, much as camels do today. #olfaction

It's raining here and I have a window open. My wife Barb loves the smell of the rain (called petrichor) and I do too. Here's a little info about the smell and what's behind it.

It smells glorious out there ⛈️ 🦠 #Petrichor

I'm particularly loving this spring that smells like winter. Even if these rains no longer give me the pleasure of savoring the smell of petrichor.

I have been reading this #webcomic for some five-plus years. After 150 updates, it has been completed. It’s a thriller with a sci-fi setting and a dose of BL. Check out #Petrichor on #Tapas and enjoy!
