Thanks for the kind feedback Amy!

It took more than a few shots to get both the ladybird and raindrops into focus but was well worth the time & effort.

 

[Amy Gardner]

Sure was! I I love it a lot.

Here’s a couple of my efforts to catch that reflective droplet effect. I still work in auto mode adn need to get more adventurous manually manipulating my settings. These were handheld and i cant remember if they were in ‘portrait’ or ‘macro’ mode...

Now that's downright cool Amy. Great shot/s!

It’s my favourite part - seeing the tiny world up close and large

The top photo looks like someone in yellow watering plants in the reflection.

 

[Amy Gardner]

cute! It’s the zucchini flower - and part of the garden enclosure structure i think. Got some good sparkles from drops of water in the distance.

This photo here I call "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Web".

I'll go back and look up my camera settings for these shots when getting a chance. My bad!

Super cool. That web looks like cracked glass

Well saying it was handheld in auto mode was about the best I had I think i can go back to the program i use to import them and it will tell me tho’ - I’ll check.

No no! I missed that. Wow, handheld in auto mode, great capture. Its great to learn the manual functions but, sometimes auto is so much easier and faster, particularly when tired or short on time. I actually used to use auto as a starting point when playing around the manual stuff. I still mostly use a form of auto with my DSLR. Tweak stuff if I need to.

Exactly this!

good to know.

For the photographic record, most every shot I take these days is handheld and with the auto focus enabled although I do practice with the manual setting from time to time just to see how the photos compare side by side. And that doesn't take into account my using the manual setting only when shooting macro shots with tubes/extensions which disengages the auto focus completely.
Hope that helps in someway!

I love the repetition of form! All those rain drop shots are so cool. Amy that second one is dynamite!
