Had to resort to the tripod to get this; manually focused whilst hand holding was impossbile (took so many out of focus shots). I desperately wanted to capture the small droplets of water and only with the use of the tripod was I able to do so.
Our Lilac has gone beresk (as my Mother used to say (beserk)). It's almost taken over the corner I put in in; smells divine also (and for a hayfever sufferer as I am, that's saying something).
