I was really happy to get a nice refraction as well as some sunflares on the waterdrops. Bonus!

I usually go for a wide-open aperture, but I really like the clarity on this one better, although the background is more distracting. Tough choices!
And this--I just like the way all those dew drops and rain drops embellished the grass blades. They look like sequins or jewels.

Thanks for getting down for us, Pat. I was excited when I saw on 2Peas that you had macros tonight, and you lived up to my expectations as usual.

That first one with the dew in the background? Spectacular, I'd love to see how it printed.
Yet again, I am gasping in awe of your macro water droplets! These are nothing short of spectacular. I love that octagonal bokeh in the bg of the first shot too!

These are gorgeous...I don't know how you do it, but every time I look at your macros, I am left with my mouth hanging open in awe. Gorgeous, as usual.
Please next time hand the camera to someone and take a picture of yourself! As always you are wonderful.
Pat - wish I was closer - would love to learn from you how you do those beautiful macros!! Wow!
So glad you posted your settings Pat. I never shoot my macros wide open....but I like the affect of that too.
