11th November

I was hoping for a really special photo today, being 111111. Today was all about the snow! But somehow I managed to take a picture of raindrops. I spent the day driving with the kids. We drove over the Kootenay pass, which is 1775m, and it was snowing hard. But of course I couldn't stop on the way to take a photo. I stopped at the bottom and this is what I got. Back in Rossland and it's a winter wonderland. But I had 3 kids to attend to and by the time they were sorted out the light had pretty much gone. It's dark by 5pm here thesedays. So here we have it, a raindrop shot for today. I did like the colours of the leaves in the background but I wished I'd used a slightly higher aperture to photograph this. Oh well :)
This is beautiful! Love the dof and the tones are great! Well done!

I love this! The focus is perfect and the color is amazing! Drives are so nice, but I bet it was difficult battling the snow.

@exposure4u @shortperson2002 @giselle @alia_801 @twinsplusone @cheyrebecca @tinatmmc @karenina @4stories @emilymoorhouse @pwallis Thanks for your kind comments and encouragement. There were my first water droplet shots and now I want to try more. Think I need a macro lens though (or tripod). Hmmm
