Drip Drop

Hi Everyone,

Not sure if this should be in photoart or flora but as it's a studio shot i thought i would put it in here. This image is of an Iris which i brought from the florists and placed in front of a white background i used a small syringe to drop the droplets onto the iris and then jumped back behind the camera without trying to knock it over, hoping the droplets had stayed there. This image was taken using white card as background in my studio aka my dining room with bay window using natural light. :smile:

Techs-
Nikon D200
28-300mm Macro at i would think 300mm
F8
Tripod mounted.

Thank you
RachelEmma :wavey:

Wonderful image. I like the color of the iris, and the fine detail you captured. The drops, especially the top one, add a eye catching points of interest. Great work.
