Hi all,

Here is a shot of some raindrops on Agapanthus leaves in my garden this morning, taken with my K100D and 50mm macro lens. The waxy surface of these leaves makes the drops bead nicely.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers,
Stephen

Very Nice Stephen,

If you look closely, I think I can see your reflection in the raindrops. It looks like you can see the silhouette of your head with the sky in the background and perhaps the straight line of your roofline on the house? Especially in the top four drops from the centre to the right.

Awesome.

Well done.

Very nice shot, I did had a look at the 50mm but at the time decided to go with the 100mm.
