Nearly Exposed

I love my macro lens. It gave me this. And then I realized, to my horror-delight-disbelief, that I can just about make out a reflection of myself in the water droplets. XD

[Kylie Martin]

[Janelle]

Lovely... I did not notice the reflection of you, until you wrote about it. Then I looked carefully - don't worry, your identity is still a secret :)

[Livia]

A super-big, macro-powered, awesome-sized "THANK YOU!" to everyone for stopping by!

I am truly grateful for all your comments. Thank you so much. Your support is a great source of encouragement to me.

@fueast It's really tricky to focus in a macro shot! Especially since I don't use a tripod. I usually take in excess of 10 shots per subject, and then I get (if I'm lucky!) maybe one shot that comes out well. This one was the best of the lot. 8)

Again, everyone, thank you so much!

[AngieQ]

Lol I love your humour and this shot! Simply stunnig as usual!
