Closed Theme Water droplets photo theme

[1of1Images]

Today I want to offer you a photo theme that will give free rein to your imagination and your creativity. We talk about drop of water, in all its forms, whether dew, rain, on flowers, herbs, insects and even in colision caused indoors. Only condition: a macro photo!

Theme open for 2 weeks until October 26.

First post here...I took this image of morning dew drops on a spider web on my way to work in a baseball field. The image is at 7.5x magnification, a field of view of about 2.5mm from left to right. 200+ images stacked in Helicon.

I do only simple macro photography as I try to take care of shutter count. I know here are a lot of photographers who does stacking. But I still prefer simple macro images
