I love macro and I love rain, lol what else can I say.......

I too am a big fan of macro photography, add a few drops of water and you always seems to have a winner. I just purchased an atomizer (a sprayer that produces the finest mist just for flower, insect, and macro related shots). Nice shot, works wells as a B&W conversion.

Sounds amazing, a gun that reduces the victim down to atoms!

Very nice macro shot

Thank you, I have not converted it to black and white but that might make it more striking. It is a white flower, the pic was taken in the rain

However I think I will get a spray bottle and keep it handy

Good suggestion. Thank you for your comments

Bramela · 03-15-2008, 11:54 AM

Atomizer! An essential part of every Macro Shooters kit, I reckon.
Love shot of the drops. Well done!

lapeen · 03-15-2008, 01:07 PM

I love this photo... everything about it!

vievetrick · 03-15-2008, 05:09 PM

great work? I though for sure it was B&W until I read your response.

Matthew Roberts · 03-15-2008, 05:32 PM

What can I say that hasn't been said before, Rosemary?

I do love the star-gleam in some of the water droplets. Absolutely stupefying.

Tuner571 · 03-15-2008, 06:45 PM

Great shot, I love the detail!

rmtagg · 03-15-2008, 08:05 PM

Some how I have a knack for flower pics, the closer the better. Good thing I really love taking them. I guess I should say it is more of a craving , lol I thank everyone for your kind comments. At the point I took that photo I had not really learned how to use CS2 or other software programs so the photo has only been sharpened up a little and cropped a bit. For some reason everyone thinks I have "worked" the photo over in photo shop but I don't understand why they think this?????

You certainly do have the knack! That is one beautiful photo...
