We were at the greenhouse today, the first day they were open for the season. Few plants are ready to show off yet, although there are early bloomers rarin’ to go. Captivated with these little plants which were still sparkling with water drops after sprinkling. Sorry I can’t do a retake, this was a once-only shot and I’m disappointed in my photography skills. The little water drops are visible, but not as charming as they were in person. Maybe I shouldn’t have used flash?
Sorry for not identifying these plants, I was so taken with the water drops that I forgot to ask what they are.









How lovely. They all look as if they’re wearing diamonds. 🙂

They were more lovely in person, but I think I wrecked the shots with using the flash. Live and learn I guess. Thanks!

thanks for the kind words. That was a one-time photo of the water drops shining in all the little flower-crannies. Timing was everything, I think.

Thank You! Not sure about being ‘champion’. 😨 Getting the ‘light’ from the right angle does help…As well as aperture opening. 😉 Hugs

thanks. My hands do shake slightly, which affects close ups especially. Better read my manual some more. 🙂

I should have relied on the natural light…the sun…I rarely use flash except at night, I thought it would enhance the reflections. Well, what do I know?

this light was coming through the greenhouse roof (glass) in mid-afternoon. Perhaps I should have concentrated on the overall shot and not fussed so much about the droplets.
