Hanging on

I was playing with the macro lens and decided to give Jerry's @orangecrush idea about saline a try. The drops wouldn't sit on the tiny branches of my conifer but I noticed this one hanging on for dear life. This is SOOC except for my watermark.
Happy Saturday everyone!

[Julia]

[Ian]

How do you get that reflection. Great shot!

[Aleksandra]

@vorka Jerry mentioned in a recent shot that when putting a drop on a flower or a leaf, to use saline as it sticks and holds its shape better than water. We happen to have a bottle of saline solution in our medicine cabinet so I thought I'd give it a try and even though I couldn't get it to sit on top of the small tips of the conifer (each tip is only about 1-2mm in size and quite flat), this large drop held on quite nicely.
