Thoughts and Description
Happy World Photography Day everyone! Would be wrong if I didn't take any photos today, eh?

It's been a while since I've delved proper into macro - ever since I actually got my macro lens I've been more hyped about its sharpness than the macro ability Not to mention how busy I always seem to be...

However I've been sick for the last few days and took today off in order to give myself a chance to start recovering, since going to work unwell wasn't helping. A sweet deviant who came by my page recently complemented one of my water drop macros and she made me realize it's time to experiment with water macros again! The feather I decided to use first was failing epically, so I just decided to grab a dandelion seed and use that - so glad I did

I barely had to edit this - the colours looked so great right out of the camera for once! It looks a lot like an underwater photo - I think that's why I fell in love with the scene as soon as I got my setup right. The blue hues and the bokeh are all real

Equipment

This is fantabulous!! the delicate drop between the soft features! you have presented a perfect picture of balance that we all need to understand and probably implement in our lives, not to forget the purity of objects in the picture is very pleasing as well.

and dont worry, if need be then DA's will make space for incredible shots like these keep them coming

Thank you so much!

That's a great underlying concept you've found there - I like it and agree we all do need that balance in our lives


Hehe I hope so
