Water Droplets 2

Rubbish weather today, so I've been experimenting with some water droplet refraction. I made a basic error by not checking my iso before I started shooting and it wasn't until I got them on the computer that I noticed I'd left the camera on iso 1250, so these are a bit noisy. Overall though, I'm happy that I got the technique pretty much OK, so just a bit more practice needed.

Taken in Albert Road, Southsea, Hampshire. As the window was a bit dirty, I decided to emphasise this in PP by adding a "grunge" filter. Best viewed large, on black. Thank you :-) PS: Spot the sad face (I've added a note if you need it)!

I'm rather partial to these................ I think I have the DoF a bit too shallow, but I can't do a reshoot 'cos I've eaten them! Not all at once...................honest! :-))

I recently bought a small A4 sized light box and thought I'd have a play. This was an idea prompted by one of those drawings you see in biology books of the male's sperm swimming for the female's egg. Not sure if it works or not, but I quite like it for a first attempt. Apologies to my wife for deconstructing a couple of her last surviving flowers :-) Looks better viewed large, on black. Thank you.

I found these whilst wandering along the towpath of the Kennet and Avon Canal near Newbury. There were half a dozen or so which had been left on the grass near a wooden bench. I selected the best looking three, arranged them on the bench and took this photo..............for no other reason than I could :-)

We had a wander round West Dean Gardens, Nr Chichester, yesterday. They have a huge shed in the nursery area which is off limits to the public, but it has some really old bits and pieces in it. I managed to get a couple of shots through an open window. Please view large, on black. Thank you.
