After the Rain
Lens: Sigma 105 macro Camera: K5 Photo Location: Wakefield UK ISO: 800 Shutter Speed: 1/250s Aperture: F16

There are three things that I like, firstly the starburst effect a small aperture causes, secondly a back-lit leaf or plant and lastly the color red. I think I have caught all three here. This is the new foliage on the Acer bush in our garden after a brief April shower.

Thank you for the comments everyone, I think the Sigma macro 105 is one of my most used lenses.
