Early use of new Tamron 90mm Macro lens.

A wet, grey day in February.

Drips

Well were are getting to the last of my villages folder, so not too many more images to post from my trip to France. These are all pretty much photographers photo's (the general public exchange puzzled looks and give you a wide birth).

I used very pale gray and beige watercolor drips. then put India Ink drips on top and blew them with a straw. My hubby liked it best upside down! Looks like trees.

Always looking for something new to play with, I came across this site that explained how to photogragh water droplets. (Well at least it explained how to get started and play around.) The site is strobist.blogspot.com/2009/05/how-to-photograph-water-dro....

You need an off camera flash with remote. As instructed, I used my 580 speedlite with remote, in manual mode set at 1/16th, and the camera on 1/200th with an apeture of f8.

The blue water is done using a white background and white balance set to tungsten and the red water is done using a red background. Can't wait to try some more.

He's so good. Calm, stays there till the drip is over, I don't even have to hold him, he knows he shouldnt move.

Photo taken at Salvador Espresso in Kings Lane, Darlinghurst, Sydney.

Oh well River of Truth, can you spare me a sip?

The holy fountain of youth has been reduced to a drip.

I've got this burning belief in Salvation and love

Its not you make me naive, but if push comes to shove

I will till this ground

Supuestamente en la espalda dice driper :L xd pero no se ve 77!

This one came out of a search for spheres for cwd202, the first image being a dripping tap, taken in close-up with flash. The second image was just there, a combination of the way the flash reflected off the water and a bubble-less area caused by the drips. I couldn't get over how much it looked like a dog, freaky or what?

I lightened the first image in photoshop elements with just one pass of the 'colour-variations' filter, the second image is un-touched.

I dusted off my macro lens and decided to have a little practise after a rainy morning. I have so much to learn about macro but really enjoy the end result. even if it is not perfect.

That is the sound of ice melting from the trees. We reached 56 today and man,what a swamp ! In the background is a weathering barn.

This is one of my pics from the Cityco "Open Manchester" event on Sunday.

The view from Lock number 89. Water flows: unchanging, despite the different landscape along the towpath.
