    Spent a few hours down on the beach today, peering into the rock pools. Lowest tide of the year. 100mm macro lens, f9 at 1/100 sec. 400 ISO. Canon 60D.

Was this through water Dean, in any case good shot. Try lighten it a bit, sure it would improve, based on my Monitor. Ed.

Thanks for the pm Ed. Yes, it was through water and I had forgotten my polariser.

[EdMak]

That was quick Dean, don't own any Filters, so can't forget them. Cheers. Ed.

This is very cool! How did you get so close? If you were using a telephoto lens.....even better.

Thank you for the welcome. I took this photo last Feb. just as the pussywillows were coming. I use a Sony DSC T50 point and shoot. Settings are limited so I just set the camera on macro, held it steady and shot. I'm quite pleased with the result.

Thanks Sarah. I was using a 100mm macro lens so was about 8 inches above the water surface. Shallow rock pool only a few inches deep. Shrimp seemed to be interested in what I was doing and came closer for a better look!

Hi Casey, unfortunately the size does not convey much, I get away with a 1024x768, try around that figure, too big and you get a warning, look forward to a better look. Ed.

        I love taking pictures of raindrops on flowers, etc after a rain. The objects I found were too high for my tripod so I tried to stay still and just shot. I love the way the background looks so clear in the raindrop. I used the magnifying glass setting on my point and shoot.

[Barbara G.]

Very nice images everyone! Love to see what everyone is working on!

Keep them coming! Thanks!

No worries, Eli - autumn is coming and I'm quite sure we'll all have more than enough rain in a next few months.
