In any case, shame to Canon non L lenses the Panasonic (out)performs nicely in respect of pic quality, - hardware wise.
Nice work, nice lights on the droplets, and good crop. Like the classic diagonal of the leaf.
Congrats,
Endre

Very eye catching photograph. I like the angle of the leaf swooping down to the bottom right corner of the picture. How the drops of water seem magnified on top of this leaf adds a magical look. All the detail of the other plants really stand out and make this an excellent capture.

Thanks Endre, the Panasonic has a Leica lens made in Japan. It is much slower than a SLR, but it's efortless.

Thanks Brian. Yesterday we were in the park, and while going to take another picture of the waterfalls, I found this field of dew covered leaves, I'm not exaggerating, there was one on every square foot, it seemed. It was magical. I just had to stoop very low to get the lighting at almost 1-2 ft. above the ground. But it was a good exercise :)

Thanks Margaret, I've got a bunch of these - as I said to Brian Fillmore, I came across a whole field of dew covered leaves, one every square foot. I was like a kid in a candy store :) And I didn't even have to get up early for this! It was about 5 or 6 PM, at sunset.

The detail in this is fantastic Ina. The composition is perfect in my eyes. I love the purple veins in the leaves and the water droplets look like drops of mercury to me. (hey at least they don't look like sequins. :) Look forward to seeing more water images. Cheers - Ann :)

Great composition.
Gray purple leaves look like tired and agonising under the mercury cold drops of nobody knows what; a little bit of light and green here and there recall the Life that is watching, impotent, the pressure in the veins... A noble tragedy!
Very nice work. Congratulations and looking forward the coming series. Cheers.

The purple color is really nice. I think maybe the flashes of green around the edges do not help you. Funny how things are relative: I'm usually pretty happy when I can get 1/80 s! It depends on the focal length of course but 1/30 s of a second is when I really start to try bracing and go looking for my tripod :-)

This is another great observation of yours, Aram, I had thought of mercury, too - but the veins? Wow! Now That is fantastic! Thank you! And I left the green grass on purpose, I saw it, could clone it out, but I left it in. Thanks for taking the time to comment - great insight!

I love the colros in this one. The light is magical and the drops look like mercury or some other silvery fluid. A bit surreal, which I like, and all the more so with the purple color and cool lighting. Great work with a 4Mpix camera. Very sharp. The deatil in your other droplet shots with this camera are very amazing also, regardless of the hardware you use to capture. Just goes to show, it's the artist that matters, not the gear! Great stuff Ina!

Hi Stefan, and thanks for your comments. I'm a bit behind in my replies. Re: the grass - I left it in for color, first I took it out, and it looked sort of dead - colorwise - w/out it. Best regards, Ina
