Water Droplets

[rogerg (Roger)]

G'day all,

A few water droplets in our cottage/herb garden area today. I don't often noice them at a suitable time to take photo's, so jumped at this opportunity to capture on of the "classic" macro subjects.

Canon 100mm F/2.8 USM macro @ F/5, 800 ISO.

Roger.

Hi Roger

I enjoyed those – they are beautiful, fresh and uplifting photos – thanks for posting them!

Is the leaf a nasturtium?

Cheers

Thanks Dennis

It is a nasturtium ... I thought about including the name in the original post but couldn't work out how to spell it well enough for google to tell m the correct spellin

Thanks Roger – we have these growing wild in the council paddock over our back fence and Narelle used to pick them as they were essentially organic and put the leaves and flower heads in our salads. A lovely, fresh tasting plant it is too!

Cheers

Dennis

You're right actually Reminds me of what I used to create in Bryce2, many years ago

Thanks .. although the sharpness is at the sacrifice of noise - ISO 800 due to the heavily overcast environment

Roger,

Wow, another Bryce2 user. Man, those were the days. KPT/Metacreations made the most unreal user interfaces -- including their Photoshop plugins.

I think they got bought out by Corel. I wonder what Kai is doing nowadays.

I was always surprised Kai seemed to vannish, had such capability. Bryce2 was great. Back when I had time (at school and university), before my astronomy kicked off, I spent a lot of late nights designing all sorts of bizzar pieces of art with Bryce2, Photoshop3, Kai Soap, etc. Brings back great memories thinking about it.

I remember one rendering in Bryce2 taking 4 days to complete on my 486DX. Big crunching for back then, I think!

Thanks for reminding me of them Humayun Perhaps I'll dig out some old shos and post'm

Roger.
