Droplet & Flower Refraction

[Paul Iddon]

My introductory image to the macro thread for you all to look at (and hopefully admire) is one I took of a flower/droplet refraction.


I took this on Christmas Day morning - having found 5 minutes away from the daughter and her presents - time enough to grab a few shots as I took in some fresh air.


Hope you like. Someone in Florida has offered me $300 for a print of it, so it cannot be too bad!

Nice refraction shot. The Sigma is a great macro lens. I'm sure there a re a lot of people that would like to try this. It would be great if you could give us some of your ideas.
Congrats on selling the image!

Thanks Sara.

This was easily prepared, just place a flower in close proximity to a dewdrop and compose to use the flower as the background colour, and focus on the refraction.
