Refraction_DSC5432

I managed 5 minutes in my garden this morning and then the rest of the day flashed by without another chance to get my camera out.

@catsmeowb Thank you. I love photographing water drops. I usually get the best results using a tripod and there can't be any wind (often difficult where I live) :)

[Merrelyn]

@photobird Thankyou for stopping by, I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Super Focus

Beautiful...

Beautifully captured.

[Jodie]

Fabulous shot, there is a whole little world inside that drop

[Madeleine Pennock]

Excellent but it needs cropping! If only to get rid of the red in the foreground! I would love to see this as a tight crop so I could see the detail of the droplet, especially as it looks in perfect focus! Well done!

That's a fabulous shot Merrelyn. Very clever.
