Everything is better with waterdrops.

grass waterdrops macro 3.jpg

I really like shooting all those boring little, things. Simple grasses, some dried pods, buds, leaves and stems. In macro lens it all looks so different. Different textures, colours, shades and surprisingly, lots of plants have tiny hair that we normally don't see.

And I like it all.
But when I manage to catch the day after rainy night or morning fog and everywhere I look I see millions of little bubbles reflecting light... it's like a cherry on top :)

All those photos I took in my local park on a quite small area. It was early in the day and the sun didn't dry up the tiny drops yet. Lucky me!

Hairy buds!
My favourite type :)

This one below must be one of the most pleasant surprised. It is one of the wild growing edible herbs that shows up everywhere in spring. Tall, skinny stems with small, pale yellow flowers. Nothing special really.
But up close you see all the dark veins and and more colours. Every time I see them in bloom I take a few photos :)

I whole-heartedly, 150 % (at least) agree with you. Little droplets on leaves, blooms, grass or buds 😆 you name it, I'll be there with my camera. I know exactly what you mean with that happy feeling that the drops are still there and the sun hasn't won yet 😍

I can't find anything boring about droplets, herbs, pods, seeds or even dead bugs. There's so much to find if one looks carefully.
Beautiful pics, as usual.
