This is beautiful! I like how, like your title implies, the reflection is in all the little drops of water.

@e.: I didn't expect the depth of the reflections that I got because it was so awkward to get the shot but knew the long dof would pull something good. Sigh... just glad it worked. Thanks tons e!!
Is this a macro of ice ? ..... well whatever it is , it's an awesome and original shot ...well done :)

@R: Not ice but droplets of water on a spider's web on the ground. Big thanks Rob!!
Super detail, Amy. Water is magnificent at the best of times yet those times peak when it is captured by a spider's webbing. You were definitely in the right location with this as I'm sure it wouldn't have been a simple assignment to deliberately seek this level of nature's wonderment. :)

@Sashimi Bhoy: No simple assignment at all; head down ass up on a jogger's path!! Annoying joggers (which I do delight in... sanctimonious health freaks) but still managing to get the shot without too many bruises!! LOL Thanks Sash.. have missed your quips!!
:), just beautiful.

@Paulo Santos: Thanks!! ;-)
I promised myself NOT to start following new photoblogs, but then I ran into yours (I read a comment of you at Robert, Birdwalking, about "getting on your soapbox" and that is such a cool expression and new to me) and I like your photos, very much. So, cute but stupid, yes you're cool and if you say you need to be cool, that's what I vote for you, done :-) Have a smiling day !

@Hildegarde: After the wonderful comment I most certainly will have a smiling day!!! Thank you so much!!! And I so get what you mean about trying not to follow too many p-blogs... but dang there are sooo many talented people out there it becomes an obsession!!
Love It! Very cool Amy.

@Roberta: Thanks girl!! Gotta get our poop in a group and go out... will call!!!
I don't think I've ever seen a shot taken at f40 before. Stunning depth of field. I also really get into long dof macro work - this is brilliant.

@Gary: My little 60mm micro is really incredible for dof. I usually go for the shallow dof but this one just screamed for a long dof. Really appreciate you stopping by... Thank you!
very nice image and title I enjoy it

Great macro. Is it grass reflecting in the droplets?
2 Oct 2007 8:52am
@sandrine: Hi Sandrine!! It is grass reflecting and probably some pine needles. Thanks!!
Really awsome reflection shot Amy. I tried to give you some more Cool Points - but they told me I had already voted once :-(
2 Oct 2007 4:49pm
@Anne: Yeah, they're tricky. They know when you've already voted... damn cookies. Thanks Anne... for the comment and second vote attempt!!!
Great reflections in each tiny droplet! Very sharp photo.

@Dave MacIntyre: Thanks Dave!! I do so love finding things like this... ;-)
Sorry for going AWOL, Amy. Lots going on here in Kyoto. So much that I've barely even been able to post everyday let alone comment or reply. Been in the doldrums (photographically speaking) for a while too, so thanks for your constant support. You're a trooper! Am despserately in need of some inspiration and reckon I've just found it here on your blog! What a shot! I've never captured a good water droplets shot before. Superb clarity. Bravo!
3 Oct 2007 12:09am
@Stu: Oh, I so get that being in the doldrums. You're welcome for the support Stu.. (blush, blush). Inspiring you? (big blush). You've got a great eye Stu and I love your work.. I think we just feed off each other here at Am3. Thank YOU too for your great comments... and so ends the mutual admiration meeting!! LOL
Great clarity, superb!

Amazing macro. Well done!

@aggie: Thanks aggie!

@Daniel: I'm thinking you're teasing about the dof seeing as how it's F40 on this image! Thanks, tho'.
