The bird bath

The March Word today is water drops or dew - I filled my bird bath and when the water started running over the top I took this photo (and oh, 30 more-ha). It's actually amazing at the amount of color in just a drop of water

Good job! I think catching a water drop is one of the hardest things to photograph.

[Lou Ann]

Thank you, @olivetreeann, I am loving everything about this site, and learning every single day. Obviously, you never quit learning with photography. Everyone has been so encouraging and so nice!

Great drip and tones.

[Gayle]

Beautiful drip image! I agree with Ann...water drops are very difficult to capture successfully! Well done, Lou Ann! :-)

[Ron]

Nicely done Lou Ann. I love droplet shots. Capturing them with a camera reveals all kinds of images that are just impossible to pick up and observe otherwise.

[Loopy-Lou]

Beautiful drip capture, do you use the burst mode on your iPhone such a great feature isn't it?

[Connie Little]

Water frozen in time. Great capture.

[Sam]

Water droplets are always fabulous :)

[Beryl Lloyd]

Stunning colours and textures in this almost abstract image !

[~*~ Jo ~*~]

Great idea and capture

[Lou Ann]

@kwind @gaylewood @ziggy77 @beryl @gigiflower @littleconnie Thank you! I appreciate your kind, encouraging comments so much. @stray_shooter You are so right, I couldn't believe how unusual the edge of the birdbath is! @bizziebeeme I forgot to put my phone on burst - I'm such a newbie at all of this! Smile.

Stunning Lou Ann ... like the way you have captured the water drops ... glad to hear I'm not the only one who takes lots of shots of the same thing :)

[Nicole Campbell]

This has a nice abstract feel to it, I like your pov and the colours of the bird bath

[Lou Ann]

@alijchapman @nicolecampbell Thank you so much! And I am so pleased this made the PP, it gives me hope I'm doing something right. I know with every photo that it could be better, though.

[Milanie]

I like your pov, too -nicely focused on those drops. Great idea for where to try this.

[Annie D]

a very abstract image - I like it

[Lou Ann]

@milaniet @annied The amazing thing is that this birdbath is old and has cracks and needs to be replaced really. Now that I've taken the water drop photos I've decided it is worth keeping. Smile.

[Henri Russell]

I'm, going to have to try that. Definitely worth keeping the birdbath.
