Playing around with reflections in water droplets. The reflected flower is chicory, a particularly pink one that grows on the clifftops around here. Droplets are placed on a couple of dandelion seeds. The orange hue on the seeds is from tungsten lighting. I took the same shot with flash, but the reddish cast on the seeds works quite well I think.

Thanks Susan,Tess,

I retook this with flash rather than the halogen light on the dandelion seeds, bu there's something about the colour on this that I prefer.

Simply outstanding - extraordinarily creative; these things look like alien creatures. Wonderful job.
