My garden in a droplet

The rain continues to come down so I'm persisting with droplet refraction. I still think it's amazing! This droplet shows my front lawn, trees and some of the spider lily that it is clinging to.

Sorry to continue with the droplets, I won't post one tomorrow ;-)
Very nicely done. And your lawn is beautiful too!

Amazing!

This is amazing! Great capture Sheralee:)
March 12th, 2011  
Beautiful!
March 12th, 2011  
Please do! They're gorgeous! Wonderful work, a fav for me.

is that the camera flash in the dew drop too?
March 12th, 2011  
I'm squinting real hard but it looks like a lovely garden!
March 12th, 2011  
Beautiful, Sheralee! Was hoping for a larger image from the magnify button...
March 12th, 2011  
Stunning!
March 12th, 2011  
Wow, I think you found a perfect refraction! This is a fav for me!
March 12th, 2011  
Gorgeous!
March 12th, 2011  
Yay! You must be thrilled with this one Sheralee! It's gorgeous.

Gorgeous chrystalclear dropshot, the comp and dof are fab
March 12th, 2011  
Wow! Great shot I think it's pretty perfect.

@bobfoto No, I didn't use any flash Jason, that's another spider lily flower.

@rhoing Thom I guess being such a tiny thing I should have uploaded a larger file, I always reduce them to 72ppi. When you hit the magnifier you can then hit Ctl+ a couple of times, it helps a tiny bit.

@shelvey It is tiny Steve, I'll have to remember to leave the file larger next time.

@geertje @stagemum Thanks so much for the faves Geertje and Steph x

@bella_ss - oh it is too! Your lawn does look very neat and tidy... do you keep it that way even throughout the dry?
March 13th, 2011  
@bobfoto Well, it doesn't always look neat and tidy, we do try to keep it green but it's a struggle sometimes. You sound like you have a lovely tropical garden, do you find it hard keeping it watered or do you have a bore?

@bella_ss I've long known that holding down the Ctrl key and rolling the wheel on a mouse changes the font size on a web page, but I never knew the equivalent for a laptop — awesome! Thank you!
March 13th, 2011  
@rhoing You're welcome Thom! It probably doesn't help too much for my photo but it can be useful.
March 13th, 2011  
@rhoing - using a macbook, it is as simple as placing two fingers on the mouse pad and widening them... the screen increases and decreases as you move your fingers apart and together again!

very groovy!

@bella_ss - I do have a bore, but I try to be smart with my water use and the way I prioritise my garden. Food and Vegies come before the grass during the dry season.
March 13th, 2011  
@bobfoto That's cool! Very intuitive!
March 13th, 2011  
Just gorgeous, a beautiful capture!
March 13th, 2011  
@bobfoto We used to have a bore but unfortunately we're on a hill so we can't here. I do have a sprinkler system and well-mulched gardens to cut down water usage.
Actually my laptop (not mac) has that same feature.
March 13th, 2011  
Thank you to everyone that has looked at my photos, past, present and future, I really appreciate it x
March 13th, 2011  
Gorgeous; well caught !!
March 13th, 2011  
@murnane Thanks Marg, I was quite happy, I've found it pretty tricky to get the DOF in the droplet.
March 13th, 2011  
After I left my comment on your last picture, I realized I didn't comment on this one like I thought I had....I saw it come up on my feed and thought, "wow, that is really awesome!" So I'll say it here: Awesome shot!
March 13th, 2011  
@poggy1818 Thanks so much Dana, you always have awesome comments ;-)

Thank you Karoline, I didn't realise, love the little *~*
March 14th, 2011

Love it!
