Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Complementary Colors IV (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-40D
Lens: Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro
Location: Kitchen
Date: Nov 27, 2007
Aperture: f/22
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/2000
Galleries: Abstract, Water
Date Uploaded: Nov 27, 2007

An inverted image of a water drop in a Petri dish with a yellow/purple chequerboard printed background. Lit with a single flash triggered by a beam breaker.
Apologies for a repeat of "Just Add Water" in Stopped Motion but I am practising and learning. This time I used high speed flash, hence the higher ISO.
Apart from a crop and an increase is saturation, NeatImage and sharpening, this is how it came out of the camera (RAW). With my recent experience this won't go anywhere but I am sharing my journey. . . . .

this is awesome, i like how it's upside down (or at least i think it is). Something that sets this picture back though it the reflections on the water and the shallow depth of field. Otherwise, good job

We've seen a lot of them, but it's definitively one of the nicer ones. The only little flaw are the reflections on the top.
