We had a fine misty rain the other morning (it is Hobart you know) and I quite liked the effect of the tiny droplets on our little cypress tree.

Very nice shot John,

pretty amazing how the cypress "collected" all of those droplets.

Cheers,

Thanks for the comments Joe, Craig, Warren, Mick, Colin and Andre.

Craig, I've added thumbnails to my other keepers so you can see afew more. Took about 20 or 30 but these 5 are the best of the bunch.

Andre, I think I know what you mean by "collected". There were no spray bottles used in the making of these images. The morning rain/mist was so fine it coated everything with very small droplets. I've corrected the spelling too, sorry if anyone from Cyprus was offended. :wink:

Cheers

That's fantastic John. I tried that style once before on one of the early challenges, but got nowhere near as good as that

didn't really mean anything by collected, I was just really commenting on how amazing the drops just hung on to the cypress as if it was building a collection of them

Mother Nature is always full of amazing events.
