Hi Steve, It's interesting how the plants appear to hold onto the droplets.
The second shot is pretty cool, the third shot I think would look better with a tighter crop.
Well done Steve

I like #3 personally Steve! Better than my first efforts at water drops by quite a bit! Looks like some dust bunnies in the second shot

thanks skip, i am trying not to crop too much so that I have to compose my shots better..
mike, i just saw that dust then, amazing how i missed it..
I have read that if you put glycerine in with water the drops get bigger and the surface tension is greater.

Is that right? Makes sense though. The same concept should work with sugar or something like that I reckon.
