Diggin' in the archive again...






Plants are good subjects. Generally they still and don't complain if you take a while, and don't seem to mind if you manipulate their leaves a tad to make the composition work. Raindrops are just icing on the cake, or the leaf as it were. You can use nature's way, or just spray it on yourself...

Just lots of pics, no big deal...





Just point and shoot. That's all. Easy! OK, compose a little. Yeah, get your lighting right. OK, focus and depth of field, too. Shoot from different angles. Film or digital? Zoom or wide angle? Could it be better if I shade the lens, or maybe bounce my flash? What about a filter? Colour or black and white? Aaaargh, let's fix it all in Photoshop instead! (I'm really not that lazy.)
