1st try

Ok, here's my first try at posting.

Taken after a recent snowstorm. Temperatures were near freezing, so there was some melting. This water droplet was clinging to a small twig on my Japanese willow, where I snapped it fairly close up. I then enlarged, cropped and rotated it 180 degrees. doesn't it look like a goose head?

You can see the neighbor's Corvette (covered in snow) through the droplet. (That's why I turned it over...)

Nikon D70
Standard lens (don't remember size, I'm not at home with the camera)

Sorry, no data since I am not at my own computer!

Used a Sigma 28-90mm lens with a (I think) 2+Quantaray 55mm close-up screwed onto it.

wtf @ f/4.8

That's what I said, too, when retrieving the EXIF data in order to post it here. That doesn't sound right, does it? I had the thing set in Aperture priority, just as I usually do when shooting, so it should've come in at either f/4 or f/5.6. I use Smugmug so maybe it messed up the EXIF.

I like the reds and oranges in the first, and the lemon/lime colors in the second. Looks like a catalog.

Here is one i had as a desktop for a while but had to change it because i got a few weird looks from clients. I like how it came out mostly out of focus.

Ooh, I really like the spider, that's neat. What is 55+50mm reversed mean? That sounds interesting.

Can you post a higher resolution image? I can't really see anything in the droplet.

Now that is cool Seenew. Will you tell us how you get these underwater shots? Are you working with a tank and a strobe or is the camera in a waterproof housing. I really like the hands punching through the surface of the water.

Heres my second edition:

Location: Observation Deck Q1
Subject: Downtown Surfers Paradise, Queensland
Camera: Canon 350D
Lense: Canon 18-55mm
Focal Length: 18mm
Exposure Time: 4sec
ISO: 100

This is neat, but have you had an opportunity to play with HDR? I don't know much about it, but I've seen some amazing cityscapes online created with HDR techniques.
