More experiments with drops of water on flower petals. Or as I like to call them ‘Flowerdrops’.
Don’t ask me why but I love to play with this concept. For starters it is fun to do, and I can learn a lot while trying to beat the problems that I will encounter.
It gives me the opportunity too play with several aspects of photography, think about; Close-up shooting, light setup , composition, and color. So in a very tiny space I can work with all these different factors. Just see it as my mini studio on the dinner table in the kitchen. The only thing that you need to remember is to keep your flowers fresh…
If you keep the above in mind you will be able to create nice pictures. For me it is looking for that little bit extra. And I do realize that I still have many roads in front of me.

Like your photo shooting skill… This flower inside the water-drop… and the water-drop photo, (that you not satisfied with its).. but for me its great, those bubble look like “Avatar” water… very nice!!
May i know while u shooting a macro object, isit using the professional “Macro Lens” or the “Extension tube” or “double lens revers macro”? Normally how far the distance will be?(the camera and the object)
Thx very much for ur reply and advice to me..
I have never used the reversed lens method. I always use a close-up lens 100mm (1x magnification) which I sometimes combine with tubes. And I also use the Canon MP-E 65 mm, which has an range of magnification (1x – 5x) This lens is unique and wonderful but very hard to operate.
The distance to my subject varies from a few centimeters to some decimeters. the ‘flowerdrop’ photos are mostly taken form a distance of 5 till 10 centimeters. The waterdrops are taken from a longer distance (to prevent water falling on the camera) Hope this answers your questions ;-)
Howdy exceptional website! Does running a blog like
this take a large amount of work? I’ve absolutely no understanding of programming but I was hoping to start my own blog soon. Anyhow, should you have any suggestions or tips for new blog
owners please share. I understand this is off subject but I simply wanted
to ask. Cheers!
