Water Droplets on a Rose Leaf - Sans Flash - experimental. Getting a good photo of what we see in water droplets glistening on a leaf or flower is difficult... and the real holy grail of this would be the colored jewels of dew on a green lawn early in the morning... extremely hard to capture as the angle of viewing is critical... I love the experimentation and keep trying.
really beautiful photo!

I agree that capturing water drops is difficult. I think you did a great job on this leaf. The drops of water do look like gleaming jewels.

Nice work with this one, Earnest! I agree, it's very difficult, but you captured them well.

This experiment has been a success, just look at the crispness of the droplets, wonderful.

Bravo for this one! Could it be that it was just above freezing? The droplets look like it....

@vu@granby - Wolfgang: Thanks and actually it was well above freezing but very misty and cool... there was little wind and the mist had been around all night.
Beautiful
