My raindrop by maggiemae

My raindrop

So many people have done this so well but this is the first time I have caught a picture within the drop! After a night of rain, every plant has a drop but to get close enough not to nudge the flower and have it drop off is tricky. This is a fuschia bud.
Great detail in the drop. Nicely done, Maggiemae!

Love the clarity, Maggiemae! Wow. Fav. :)

Just caught this before i go to bed...always love water drop photos & a great sense of achievement when you catch it at just the right fullness....lovely clear reflection!

Lovely water droplet Maggie, great focus and colour.

A little world in that drop, isn't there!? I've never done this either...one of these days I'll have to get a macro lens.
April 23rd, 2013  
Love it!

Lovely so fresh so crystal clear :)) congrats
April 23rd, 2013  
I never get one quite that big. Fabulous job. Wonderful focus, Maggiemae!!!!
April 23rd, 2013  
This is great - I love the way the rain drop inverts the view behind. It's on my 'to do' list to try the same effect with a wine glass and a view behind some time.
April 23rd, 2013  
Awesome reflection
April 23rd, 2013  
spot on focus.. FAV!!!!

i will have to take your word for it, 'cause i don't think i have the patience.
April 24th, 2013  
Lovely droplet , you have achieved so much clarity and detail
April 24th, 2013  
Well it looks like you have been practicing Maggiemae. It turned out nice.
April 24th, 2013  
@digitalrn I didn't really practice - all my drops turned out boring and opaque. This was the first drop of any depth I have seen! Thanks Rick!
April 24th, 2013  
@chard Get somewhere where it has been raining overnight and no patience is needed, Richard. Of course, there has to be no wind too!
April 24th, 2013  
@yonnie I dislodged several drops by putting the tripod in amongst the plant so I had to get somewhere where I could put the tripod away from the plant! Thanks Yvonne!
