I guess these images are proof that something positive can come out of a wet summer! Colin took these photos at the weekend, when the mist had created countless sparkling globes of water on the leaves of plants in the front garden.
Photography details:
Nikon D300 with 105 mm f4 micro lens, manual focus 1/30 sec, f.22.

Isn’t nature wonderful! Colin’s photos are superb, such beautiful detail and lovely composition, it’s like seeing into a little magic kingdom, and it’s all there without us even knowing about it most of the time.

They are just like jewels. I wondered what on earth he was doing out there but he got some stunning photos!
Susan Abernethy

Fantastic images!!! These are so interesting and a pleasure to view. Well done Colin!!! I think these photos have so many uses either on a wall or as note cards or…

Thanks, David! I think they’re lovely too. Maybe we should use one as a symbol of the British summer!

Amazing! Interesting how the water droplets in the last photo look like little seashells!
Jo Woolf
Yes! I see what you mean. If I understood physics I’d probably be able to explain the refraction of light through water, causing the lines to appear to radiate… Thank you for the comment!
