Daisy Drop
Sometimes simple is better.
Super frustrated with this long blade-like leaf not able retain the water droplets and not able to keep them as perfect round spheres. I would have it all set and then the droplets would shift and morph into each other and change right as I was about to start shooting.. And that's after a lot of other setup work had been done. I think the upper part of the leaf must have just gotten saturated with too much water and lost its ability to hold a ball of water the way I wanted it to.
But then sometimes it just works. Something very simple and plain is often better. Still working to understand the how and why of the way this works. Its science, but it can also be pretty!
Shot using a Tokina AT-X 90mm f2.5 Macro lens with a Canon FD 25 U extension tube.
This was a 9 image stack, each shot at f5.6
