20-AUG-2005 Petesie Lee

08/20/05

My butterfly garden, Wimberley, Texas

It is amazing how happy a quarter inch rain can make
a flower and a padder! No one should be allowed to
have as much fun with one dewy flower as I did!
This is just as it came out of the camera except for stroking a frame.







Nikon Coolpix 4500
1/70s f/5.6 at 16.2mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Beautiful macro composition. Out of this world detail. The water droplets do add a lot of character!

Petesie, this is stunning!!! Gorgeous colors, composition, lighting, and most of all, those tiny jewel-like droplets that are absolutely exquisite! Vote!

Wow! Petsie. Like miniature crystals. Very very nice. Can see you running around like a kid in a candy store :)

Awesome capture Petesie. Every garden likes a little rain. I like the rain drops captured in the flower.

The moisture on this flower is like little diamonds. Beautiful, beautiful. (Wish we'd get some rain--I am dry roasting.)

Great shots! I like the second photo better for the background and the composition.

Wonderful! Hard to tell which one I like the best. I think the first one is more detailed, the other has more pleasing composition. Anyhow, I like them both.

I love the moisture and the DOF on this, Petesie.
