    This is a very long way form Penzance, I went there once along time ago, to my regret without a camera. If I had have had one would have hoped to have a picture as good as this in my album.

    Water droplets

          1

    Shot on a Canon 350D against a blurred photographed background of

    similar foliage. The small droplet is a copy of the larger one on the

    left. This new droplet was copied and distorted to create a new

    shape, some of the texture from the other two droplets was cloned

    into the third. I used this technique to compensate for the extreme

    depth of field at f16 (maximum on this lens) I added the other

    droplet simply to balance the composition. The lens used a 50mm Super

    paragon macro lens and adapter. I think this picture demonstrates you

    do not have to spend a fortune on lenses to get decent results. The

    Paragon lens cost less than �6 on Ebay.

  1. This is a black and white conversion. The work was done in Photoshop

    7.

     

    Shot from the balcony of my home in Penzance England. The lens was a

    manual focus 135mm M42 lens bought on Ebay for �5. I used an adapter

    to attach the lens to a Canon 350 D. The camera was mounted on a

    tripod and an aperture of f11 and a shutter speed of a 1/200 of a

    second was used to expose the shot.
