Love all of them, maybe the last one is my favourite. BTW, I'm about to buy a macro lens soon, probably a 100mm canon, would that be capable of this type of shot, do you need a macro flash setup for it?

LOvely dewdrops Phil. Tricky with the first 2. Prefer the composition of #2 but the background colouring of #1

I agree with Brian

You can do this type of shot with the Canon 100mm, but in combination with macro tubes (to achieve a higher magnification - 2:1).

They're all great, but I like #2.

I'm in awe every time I come here.

The last one is my pick. Love those little drops...

Lovely, all of them. I am in awe of #3.

I would love to learn how to capture images similar to these. I just got the Nikon 105mm VR, and will be practicing A LOT.

Thanks for all your posts, and mentoring vicariously via the forum.
