And it's still raining. Taken with my 600mm zoom from inside the house through an open door, of rain falling on the deck table. Nature's way of creating water crowns. Processed in LR, then Silver Efex, then Color Efex, then back to LR.
@jgpittenger Thanks! I had the door open...window had too many droplets on it unfortunately. Only downside is the fly that got in and is driving us nuts.
@gosia I've just posted the sequence from original to b&w conversation to color efex additions/processing here's the link: https://365project.org/taffy/special-photos/2018-07-22 @brigette@sangwann Water crowns like this are, to me, luck and then whatever you can do post processing to bring out details. I had taken about 50 shots, imported about 30 of them as 'promising' and in the end, this was the only one worthy of any work and eventual posting. Definitely a boring rainy day activity!
@gosia Forgot to answer your question...no, no tripod. Too lazy at the time. It would be more clear with a tripod, of course. But focusing really is hit or miss with these.
Great edit too
