Default I do apologize...

I seem to have this fixation at the moment for drops of water. I'm not getting what I want so you will all have to perceiver with me untill I work it out. The outcome here is not what I envisioned but very colourful


Drops-1

a drop of water

Drops-2

I liked the colour in this.

Drops-4

Drops-3

There will be more....

Definitely no appology needed here Michelle. The colours in the first one are amazing. and The second one too is really cool. The last one takes it for me though. Those drops are so clear and sharp. If these are test shot. Wow, I can't wait to see what you come up with when you get what you want. This is stunning work Michelle.

It's fun to play. I'm sure once winter strikes I will be doing all kinds of stuff like this. I really like the first and fourth ones.

Have fun and no apologies!

Nice series I love the first one. Have you heard of image stacking? I have seen a few nice water drop images created this way.

I for one, will not accept your apology. These are fun and exciting photos my friend. Never apologize for the ability to make others smile!
